Beware: These salesmen are not licensed by the cities, and the effects of these remedies may not be what you expect.</P> <P>- Inhabitants of both cities are discussing this plague and may offer theories and advice on both the cause and the cure. But until solid information is released by city officials, be dubious of such rumors.</P> <P>- While the infection does not seem to be life-threatening at this point, the plague is highly contagious and has a visible effect on most everyone who encounters it. Traditional forms of medicine seem to offer temporary relief, but until a universal cure is found, reinfection is very likely.</P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P>SoE i gotta admit, with the recent Combat Art, Abilities and Spells fix list plus this, i gotta say, things are looking up. Keep up the good work, i smell fun in the air again.</P> <P> </P> <P>Taemek Frozenberg 46th Berserker<BR>16th Outfitter<BR>Everfrost Server<BR><BR>Enlightened Aonein Amillion ( retired )<BR>70th Stone Fist of The Celestial Fist<BR>Five Rings on Luclin Server</P></DIV>

I believe that this is related to those bloodsaber quests in catacombs/VS which can be already done. I was wondering when they would continue the story. <div></div>

One of the most known, most popular, and truley the very first raid zone in EQ.</P> <P>It brought about the opening of the Plane of Fear. This almost identical event in eq1 brought about the opening of the plane of fear. The devs have said in numerous posts that the plane of fear would be the first plane to re-enter the game in eq2. </P> <P>There isnt much high end content. What better way to fix that other then bringing back the very first true raid zone with an event that is almost identical to the one that opened it originally in eq1?</P>
