    Into the Mist

    Rumor has it that the Frenzied Wizards plundered the Mistchasers' Messenger Bugs. To continue the investigation, you must find answers from those dangerous creatures. The Frenzied Wizards wear tattered robes, their limbs covered in runic tattoos, with metallic trinkets clinking all over their bodies. They are obsessed with all sorts of ores and Gyldenblod, making them naturally curious about the Messenger Bugs that emit a golden glow.
