It made the news. The largest dirigible ever seen, the Strato Moblis, had just left Port Alsworth and was heading for Talislanta, the floating isles. Flocks of colorful mechanical birds glistened as the last rays of the setting sun danced on their metallic feathers.
14 different crystals where used to help power the massive flying contraption along with 1400 cubic liters of helium. There where people on watch at all times to help insure the safety oh the crew and passengers. All seemed to be going well.
But just as the air ship started to pass over Hazeshire, something went wrong. A Chain reaction of explosions were set off and the dirigible went down. It exploded into flames, killing most of the people. Those few who survived suffered fatal wounds. Not even the healing crystals could save them.
One had, on a fit of delirium started spouting nonsense about a Crystal of great power. He even talked about a rumored map located in one of the bars of Port Alsworth that would lead the way.
When investigators came back to question the man, they found him dead with most of the skin from his back pulled away. Those who were there to hear the old mans rambling have been sworn to silence, forced to go, or locked away. Still... The rumors of the Crystal and it's map have leeched out among the curious population of Hazashire.
