The secret of the Elven folk in Runes of Magic has laid deeply hidden in the Aslan Valley for centuries. Yet dark demons have corrupted the Ents, the peace-loving guardians of this holy place, which is known throughout Taborea as ‘The Origin’. Beginning September 15th, brave adventurers can explore Runes of Magic’s high level group dungeon, ‘The Origin’ and support the Elves in leading the Ents back to the righteous path.

In the instance, players encounter opponents which are closely bonded to nature and have settled under the open skies in an abandoned Elven city. Together with elemental beings and the powerful Ents, players face mutant beetles and bloodworms, which have brought about the corruption.

Players will have to confront four bosses before they can unlock the secret of the Elves and bring the sacred tree, Falynum, back to its senses. The encounter with the giant tree presents a huge challenge: In the course of the combat, Falynum summons assistance. Later on, an opponent who was already believed to have been beaten returns to the fray.

After ‘The Origin’ goes live on September 15th, additional instances will be added to the new zones of ‘Chapter II – The Elven Prophecy’. With this, Frogster is ensuring that the second chapter of Runes of Magic will also give players a broad range of challenges in the high level areas.
