A student has overheard Chief Astrologian Forlemort speaking with one of his aides regarding Sharlayan. Jannequinard is expecting an important visitor from Sharlayan and asks the Warrior of Light to inquire with other students of the Atheneum Arcaneum on the visitor's whereabouts. The Astrologian questline starts after agreeing to study Sharlayan astrology with Jannequinard de Durendaire. The deck of arcana, with its cards representative of the constellations, was integrated along with the star globe into a uniquely Sharlayan discipline of magick. This revelation shifted the entire focus of his research, and his subsequent efforts to reconstruct and adapt these principles resulted in the creation of "astromancy"-an art which attuned the wielder's aether to the movement of the heavens.įollowing Lewphon's discoveries, the cards of the fortuneteller-previouslyĬonsidered an amusement fit only for children were re-evaluated from an academic What his methodical scrutiny uncovered, however, was that much of the ancients' wisdom was founded in legitimate arcane theory.

Thus was astromancy born―a new form of magick which grants its users power over fate. By attuning their aetherial energies to that of constellations, they learned to wield magicks with heretofore unseen properties. Though this gift is known today as astrology, the people of Sharlayan saw fit to not only read the stars, but to write their movements as well.
