Westfaring

A Quest from Orlanthi lands to the edge of the Western Ocean

Mastakos's Westfaring

 * Mastakos took eight steps to reach the Black Isle of Introspection
 * The first step was in Halikiv where the Uz lived.
 * Mastakos recommended that his followers chose landing on the sticky parts in the wilderness (as opposed to the sharp parts or the outskirts or the centre of Halikiv). If people got stuck they would be drawn into the Shortsteps


 * The second was the Balance Split atop a hill where Inora? was nearby.
 * Mastakos recommended that his friends did not tarry.


 * The third step was in Wonderwood.
 * Mastakos's advice was to give the Rarest Flower to Bukvister who will escort the followers to an edge of the pit where the first green elf tree grew. Iron Man is nearby.


 * The fourth step was in a vale where dancing took place to the sound of a flute.
 * Mastaskos adviced to block the ears and do not dance.


 * The fifth step was to Hrelar Amali
 * A funeral for Flamal was taking place there.


 * The sixth step was for the Outpost of Logic
 * The seventh step was the walk on water step.
 * The eighth step was the Black Isle.
