Asheron's Lore
Many legends surround the strange creatures and magical phenomena of Dereth. Certainly the lore handed down from the Empyrean and the scholars of Ispar leaves much room for conjecture. However, for that lore corroborated by Asheron himself or at least those mysterious beings he refers to as the Creators of Dereth, consult the following texts:
Asheron's Lore:
- Read the official account of the events that brought heroes to Dereth.

- Collected accounts, detailing the intricate mysterious, the strange geography, even the festivals of Dereth.
