The meeting at the Conservatory

A meeting between Zaero Stachini, Royal Anthropologist, and all interested parties was held at the conservatory in Yrkanis. It was revealed that a torn note (above) was found near the Arena and that the Royal Anthropologist wished us to investigate the area to see if any more clues could be found. The search commenced and soon five pieces of parchment were found bringing more light to the mystery of the sudden Goo eruptions and the startling rise in the Gibbaï population in the south of Verdant Heights.

The five pieces of parchment seemed to imply that a certain potion had the ability to weaken the goo eruptions, luckily the recipe for this concoction had been scribbled down on two of the parchment pieces. The search party reconvened around Zaero Stachini, where she asked the large group to be split up and to go find the various materials needed to make the potion.

Part 1 of this event concluded with the various groups returning to the conservatory to hand in all the materials they had found. The Matisian anthropologist immediately began work on the potions thereafter.

Experiment Analyses

It was observed that prolonged exposure to modified goo would change the beings in such a way as to permanently increase their constitution and metabolism. The goo radiation takes longer to effect the larger of the beings. There is a limit as to the increased growth rates and each being would go through at least 2 additional phases. Note that only the larger beings would mutate a third or fourth time to become "superior" and that further experimentation is needed to conclude how this occurs as not all of the largest beings would mutate 3rd time or 4th.

Torn Letter

My Dearest Love,
I am afraid we have made a mistake by joining in the research with the group from the Old Lands. When we were approached with the information they showed us, we could not help but to be excited. I fear that our quest for knowledge and utilization of the goo has allowed us to be taken advantage of. Though we have requested that the experiments be stopped and refuse to participate any longer, the Marauders will hear nothing of it...
I do not think that I will be returning...
