[QUOTE="megamania, post: 6927808, member: 9255"] THE MORGRAVE ADVENTURES “07 ARCANE CONGRESS” SEGMENT 68 “ARCANIX” 04/11/16 THERENDOR 6, 1001 Diana riding Gears, Kar-Draith and Charger arrive in the village of Arcanix looking to sell their prized possession- the book of Vile Darkness written by Fiends thousands of years ago.
