The cryptic message I recieved from a water elle when I reaced the bottom lvl of Covetous where the dragons normally spawn. Instead I found a mob of lizardmen and what seems to be a bridge being built acroos the lake. I dunno what's going on here but seems rather fishy to me, those lizardmen must be up to something.

I had messaged Edison while I was down there, and Ed and Cloudchaser came to see the bridge, while they were there, a large group of leviathans attacked, during the fight Gall joined us and between the 4 of us we managed to put them down. Among the loot was a magic ring, The Leviathan Ring, A ring that contains the strength of the leviathans that rule the seas.[+10 str +5 dex +5 int]

According to the books retrieved in yew when the lizardman invasion of the forest was stopped.

Find more lumber quickly - the project has been discovered. We need tocomplete the project as soon as possible. Once we bring the magical energy trapped in the lake, our strength will grow.....

It seems my excursion to covetous has caused a bit of an uproar in the lizardman's plans. They are in a hurry to finish now.

As an extra note, while visiting Benson after the battle, he told Covenant, Zareena, Loakie, and myself that he had overheard the lizardmen talking of the spring of magical energy deep within their lair. And commented on how magical energies can seep from the earth to underground waterways. And that was somewhat the method that he used to create his famous oils.

So I fear that there just may be more to this than it appears. I have no want to see an army of lizardmen wielding a near infinite number of benson oils.

An update on the bridge, it's about halfway across now, which means they are building it rather quickly

"And is anyone going to do something about the bridge, or just watch their plans unfold? Bah. Knowing the propensity for tactics as most people comprehend them, it will be a 'wait until the situation is dire, and then attempt a frontal assault,' situation."

"In any case, find out what exactly the magic seepage is. Unsurprisingly, it would have some qualities of the element water. Perhaps you should start focusing on the details of an excursion, rather than the body counts or treasure hauls. Bah."
