The Stone of Irindia is ancient beyond measure and is the most powerful weapon in Irindia. During the time of the Jumdah Sek's first effort to come through from his realm, it was used to harness the power of the Ancients and destroy his pawns Mishao and Kava. After they were destroyed, the rune covered stone was broken into four fragments and hidden until they were needed again.
When Lord Draga begins to prepare the way for Sek to come through, the Ancients set in motion the fulfillment of a prophecy. A Gatherer is brought to Irindia to begin collecting the pieces of the artifact. The fragments, each of which is imbued with a an element, will only reveal themselves to him. Each fragment is guarded by a unique set of challenges and only when all four are gathered can they be used to harness the power of the Ancients and destroy Draga.
