After living with the Lugians of Linvak Tukal for that past four years writing my book, "Lugian Society and Customs", I have decided to return to active participation in the Exploration Society. I have missed the visceral thrill of uncovering hidden tombs and valleys no human has ever laid eyes on. Also things have been changing at Linvak Tukal recently and they unnerve me. Lord Kresovus has retreated from public life and the few chances I have to engage him about the growing unrest in Linvak he has waved away as a human's confusion over the differences between Human and Lugian society.

I did however find a very interesting fossil before I was driven out by a swarm of the insects. It appears to be a very large gromnie bone. I believe that it may be one of the predecessors of the gromnie we see today that was more like the Gromnitross of Empyrean lore. I have given the bone to Yuan Hanzu who expressed an interest in its properties.

It may simply be another Empyrean stone flung up during the time of the great upheaval or it could truly be a temple as the report claims. I leave today and have left instructions on how to find the structure with the local Barkeep Berkholt. I'm giddy with anticipation of what I might find. Adventure!

These Burun act strangely subserviant to the Sclavus and wear collars that lead me to believe they may be slaves or domesticated in some way. The Sclavus are cruel to these Burun, whipping and beating them. They spit harsh commands at them in their hissing tongues.<br><br>I now await mid-day to attempt sneaking by the guards outside the temple while they are groggy with the sun's heat.
