Sophia frowned, "I remember being lectured on this subject as a novice." She tapped her chin. "Ooh, why didn't I pay better attention? One of the pieces was hidden in Murathi, wherever that is."
"Far to the north in lands now claimed by the Larg Orcs," Xera answered. "It is a holy place to them, some ruins that they worship at."
"Fun," Sophia groaned. "And let's see...another is hidden in a volcano on the Isle of Birds. I think a third piece was hidden in the Mirage Gardens in the Halani Desert."
I stared at Sophia with eager excitement. "And the other two?"
Sophia furrowed her eyebrows. "Umm...the Haunted Forest. In a ruined castle in the depths of that terrible place."
It was my turn to groan. "They really didn't want this sword reforged."
"It was the High King's blade, the symbol of his empire. None of the usurping kings that carved up his empire could have been happy with that symbol around," Sophia answered. "Oh, the last one is in Rartha. In the Great Vault."
