Story

Into the Lifestream

Although unknown who created the eikon, it is known that a champion of Hydaelyn imprisoned the primal on the Isle of Val. A destructive primal who can form anything and everything, Galuf realized the threat the primal posed. For a long time he and his comrades kept the beings location a closely guarded secret, and also looked for a way to destroy it.

Eventually its location was discovered by the Ascians and the plan to prevent it from falling into their hands was set in motion. Planning to invoke a spell to throw the island into the lifestream, Galuf had evacuated the island and defeated the Ascian Emmeroloth by scattering their essence into the torrent of aether. All on the island were taken by the lifestream although the primal Eureka lived on imprisoned within.

The Forbidden Land Eureka

From within the Lifestream, Eureka used most of its aether to push the Isle of Val back into the world. When Krile and Ejika Tsunjika investigated the island, they discovered elemental forces raging across it. The two searched separately for an explanation, during which time Eureka's avatar approached Ejika and gave him a blade it had created. Falling under Eureka's sway, he used the blade to destroy the aetheryte network preventing the primal from absorbing aether. With the network destroyed, Krile devised a means of restoring the ward, but she would have to disable the restraints within the headquarters of the Students of Baldesion that were keeping Eureka contained.

Upon deactivating the restraints Ejika appears with Eureka's avatar. Revealing that his alliance with Eureka was a ruse, Ejika throws the blade to the Warrior of Light who, being immune to Eureka's control, strikes the avatar down. Ejika informs Krile and the Warrior of Light that with the avatar destroyed, and with so much aether having been expended in returning the Isle of Val to the world, the primal is weakened enough it can be destroyed. Krile objects, knowing that Ejika would have to sacrifice himself to do so, and insists that with the Ascian Emmeroloth gone they could reseal Eureka and have time to find a better solution. In the end, they leave the decision up to the Warrior of Light.
