 +A magical portal on a hill outside of town is the only commonly known way to get in and out of Brundash. The hill is closely monitored by magic, in case someone unwanted figures out how to teleport there.

 +"Fovery was an outsider, raised to the position of High Mage far too quickly for Cailena's taste. He had once been a common thief, and many of the magi still thought of him as such."{{zioth>t,214}} 
 + 
 +==== Belazan ==== 
 +Widely considered to be the most powerful mage in the world, many of the magi believe he should have been High Mage instead of Fovery.{{zioth>t,214}} 
 + 
 +An image of Belazan appears to Ziedon: "Ziedon thought he saw a man, immensely tall, with a wizened beard and bright eyes, holding a cedar staff. It was hard to say whether the man was really there. Any attempt to focus on his form made him harder to see. “You have failed to break the Song,' the figure said. 'Be warned – you have created a formidable foe, for now.' The area brightened rapidly while the figure faded away. 'Do not be caught alone.'"{{zioth>t,146}} Later, Belazan has a conversation with Ziedon, where he explains that he'd put a spell in place to subtly counter the Song of Destruction.{{zioth>t,148}} 
 + 
 +While Belazan is described as an old man in Ziedon's encounter, in person, he is much younger. "He had a neatly-trimmed red-brown beard, gray at the temples and in two stripes leading down from his mustache and into his beard, and his green eyes were so bright that they seemed to glow. No, they actually did glow -- some enchantment, no doubt. When Fovery entered behind the others, the contrast was striking. The high mage held himself like a thief, eyes shifting and always slightly crouched. Belazan, on the other hand, held himself high, his eyes focused ahead of him with an overpowering confidence. His entourage was largely younger than Fovery's, and all shared Belazan's posture, which, Arnell noticed, was also shared by Cailena, though she was older than any of them."{{zioth>t,214}}
  
 ==== Cailenajurenthile ==== ==== Cailenajurenthile ====
 Cailena, as she is most commonly known, is a very tall, spindly woman in her sixties. Born in Brundash, she strongly adheres to tradition, and does not approve of Fovery's openness. She would have preferred Belazan as High Mage. Cailena is described by Fovery as "one of our most talented and overprotective mages."{{zioth>t,214}} Cailena, as she is most commonly known, is a very tall, spindly woman in her sixties.

 +"Cailena's long, rigid face stared silently at Arnell. She was in her sixties at least, and age had sharpened her features to the point where, when she opened her mouth, the lines from cheekbone to jaw stuck out like a dowels on a puppet. The ridge of her eyebrows shadowed dark brown eyes."{{zioth>t,214}}
