The Story So Far...

 Back when BZ was something the denizens of Dereth thought was merely a myth, a group of adventurers, including Clan EpiK, fought a titanic battle in the dungeon known as the Nexus.  When the Soul Crystal was destroyed, everyone thought that was the end of the struggle against the shadows.  Later other portions of the soul crystal were found and destroyed, releasing BZ on the Isle.  Asheron himself led the fight and BZ was defeated... for a time.  Now, new shadows (such as the Dark Inferno) and Sentient Fragments (a portion of the original soul crystal) are starting to appear in the land... 

Step 0: Preparation

• Like all fragments, magic defense

• Lightning and Piercing protection

Step 1: Find and Kill a Sentient Fragment

  Most likely, you will find them in the northern portions of the Dires.  When you are ready to attack it, buff up real good and go for it!  It will drop a Crystal Sword (not sure of actual drop rate yet...)
