East of the road which runs through the [[Savannah]] from North of [[New Thera]] is the '''Great Rock'''. Like a huge, black stone anvil, the Great Rock is placed upon a bleak and flattened plain north of the [[Pachacacha River]]. On the southern face of the rock, a daring adventurer might find the entrance to a [[:Category:Caves|cavern]], which contains the subterranean '''Dungeon of the Beastlords''' | East of the road which runs through the [[Savannah]] from North of [[New Thera]] is the '''Great Rock'''.

Whilst the existence of the Great Rock in the Savannah has been known since antiquity, few knew of the interior before the [[Modern Age]]. Its moss-laden interior was discovered in the winter of 236 after a man named [[Lotash]] begged the public to help rescue his daughter from the beast cultists who inhabit it. | |||
Just as winter was passing in 396 AF, a great rumbling alerted all of [[Sapience]] to the fact that the statue of Lord [[Sartan]] upon the summit of the Great Rock had come alive. It quickly made its way to [[Shallam]], slaughtering everything and everyone who got in its way until it was finally defeated. All that remains upon the summit is a large, stone base. | Just as winter was passing in 396 AF, a great rumbling alerted all of [[Sapience]] to the fact that the statue of Lord [[Sartan]] upon the summit of the Great Rock had come alive.

In 646 it became apparent that [[newbies]] were being targeted by [[pygmies]] in a conspiracy connected to the [[Great Rock]]. From then on it became customary for new [[adventurers]] to escape this plot, evading the secret machinations of [[Miba]] and the cultists. | |||
