Deep Beneath
As Koranth digs deep into the earth to build the foundations of her city, she felt the ambient magic slowly increase over time. At first she thinks nothing of it, but it eventually becomes almost overwhelming.
She breaks through into a cave. A strange substance covers the walls - enchanted quartz, perhaps? But the truly astonishing thing is at the center of the cave.
A fissure, from which raw magic erupts. At first she is confused, but as she consulted the maps it becomes clear. She is at a leyline nexus, and a quite powerful one at that.
Immediately, she sets to work, growing a massive crystal on top of the fissure to harvest it's energy. She runs wires from the crystal up through the pillars, using that energy to power her city.
Along the walls of the cave, she plants the seeds of other crystals, powerful alchemical reagents to use in her studies.
With the anomaly investigated, she prepares to build an agricultural core.
