Someone in my guild found this out and doesnt know what to think of it. I saw it and didnt know what to think so i am putting it on here.

It in the southern area of Arid Sea if you want to find him. He says " This Portal Leads to the Desolation, a deadly wasteland shrouded in poisonous sulfur mists. You do not have the means to survive in such a place so I cannot grant you passage"

Does anyone know if he leads you to something or is it just a dead end?

Most likely

BUT

Same as ascension i guess you'll have to to earn some sort of magical protection (lighbringer title?) in order to actually use it.

Do you have a Nightfall key added to your account? Maybe its a way in to Elona for those who bought the game. Just a theory.

I seem to remember reading there were two bonus Heros (one from Prophecies, one from Factions) you could aquire if you had the original games. Perhaps thats related?

that guy has been there as long as I've played the game (17-18 months). So I don't think it has a point...

Nah, those we got first, one in KC and one in LA. One assasin from cantha and one neco from tyria. I thought for sure they would make it alot harder for us to aquire them.

it seems like this is the entrance to the area where you have to ride the wurms. That was the info we got before, a really toxic land where you can only survive in a wurm, so you have to first do a quest to get a wurm u can ride before enetring there.

It did say things will pop up or change somehow in proph and factions area as nf unviels itself. (not word for word but translated +doesnt say when/if this actually happens.)

Yeah, I just stepped foot into desolation, it kills you instantly cause you can't survive. I wonder what you need to do to survive

Isn't this the part where you have to ride the wurm through the poison?

But well, just a thought.
