Establishing Engama
"Anyone who wants to get to Engama has to go through here. Sure someone might try going over the mountains, but it's treacherous and there's traps and alarms set up. If you don't know where they are you will have a heck of a time avoiding them."
"Why did they build here?"
"Well," he rolled his shoulders in a non-committal shrug, "the way I was told was Engama was built after the two old schools in East Ela'yas were destroyed by the Klamon. The North one was near the Anlizer and the southern one down by the Solnerrith. Of course it was a couple decades before things settled enough for them to think of building again, took then nearly thirty years, having to do it as secretly as possible. For the most part the Klamon had been pushed north of the Anlizer, but the mountains were still a bit of a no man's land. Name Hillenbohn and a handful of others found the valley, cleared it out and decided to establish a new school here."
