Cyradon is a brand-new world setting for HARP. The land waits, petrified, deserted, waiting for life to return. In the centre of the wastelands, lies the wizard's city; its streets empty and silent save for the echoing of the wind and the shifting sand. In the great mesas, high above, the Gryphons sleep. Below in a great courtyard, there's a strange pattern carved into the stone. A small jewel is embedded into the ground. The patterns stream out from that central point. And one night, the jewel flickers into life, and thousands of humans--weary, defeated, starved, and terrified, emerge into a whole new world. Westward, beyond the desert, beyond the western mountains, lie lands unexplored for millennia... who lives there now? What will your role and destiny be in this new world?
Includes a lush, full-colour 16X20 inch map.
