Original Manual Text

During the Sho's first days on Dereth, the land just northwest of the Blackmire Swamp was rife with Tumeroks, and many defenseless folk fell beneath their blades. In that time, a master swordsman named Ben Ten roamed the land, giving aid to those who needed it. Ben Ten Vanished into legend soon after the Tumerok menace was thrawted The Last place he was seen was standing atop a large rock near the edge of the swamp, and some of his followers settled there considering the stone to have been blessed by is presence. The village that arose on that spot - called Yanshi or "town of the boulder" - has grown in the past several years into a trading center, with roads leading into both the Gharu'ndim and Aluvian lands as well as deeper into the Sho realm.
