Test of the Summoner

In the old days Summoners created their own cards, but the cards have become so sophisticated that they must be created by a special craftsmen. Note that you are not yet an official Summoner and may only receive Apprentice Arcana Cards. Perhaps the day will come when you may possess a Major Arcana Card, a card that is only held by the top Summoners of the land!

The card you will be making now is for use in the trial, so it need not be ostentatious. You must seek out a craftsman who knows the methods for creating arcana cards. Trader Lara in the Town of Dion will probably make a card for you.

She works rather slowly, so I suggest that you order a good supply of them up front.

If you are serious about challenging a more advanced summoner, here are some likely candidates here in Aden.

Summoner Almorsis recuperating on Talking Island at the moment. Summoner Basillia, rumor has it, is preoccupied with studying new summoning magic at his seaside home in southern Gludio.

The Elf, Summoner Camoniell, lives in retirement in his villa in southern Dion; I have heard that he has had some sort of bad experience lately. Summoner Celestiel once lived in the Ivory Tower, but apparently something happened in his hometown and he hastily returned to the Elven Forest.

The Dark Elves, Summoner Brynthea and Summoner Belthus, seem likely adversaries for you, but you may have trouble actually finding them. The last I heard, Brynthea is in the eastern part of Giran and Belthus is somewhere in the Cruma Marshlands.

All of these summoners are very proud, so when an apprentice summoner such as yourself challenges them to a duel, they may simply scoff at you. Eventually, however, their vanity may win out and they will accept your challenge to demonstrate their own superiority.

Here, take this Dimension Diamond. You can trade it to the village gatekeeper for something special that may help you on your journey.
