Located in the [[Pash Valley]] near [[Jaru]], the monastery of '''Shala'jen''', named for [[Jokelehn Shala'jen]], its founder, is a sorrowful place. All that remains of the peaceful [[monks]] who once lived here are their grief-stricken [[ghosts]]. Those intrepid [[adventurer|adventurers]] who dare to delve into the monastery's past, however, may discover there is more than meets the eye. | |||
Down a sloping path near the monastery lies a small cave inhabited by the [[Shala'jen bandits]]. Led by the master thief [[Gontathis]], they are aggressive towards anyone who might stumble into their lair. Lurking within the hideout as well is [[Vandastk]], the bone collector. | |||
[[Category: | The symbol of the Shala'jen monks is a cross with a feather on the top. | ||
For years, the monastery was hidden from mortal eyes. In the year 306, snows and rains cleared the debris covering the structure and cleared a path to the halls. | |||
