The text describes several hidden elven armories and citadels located throughout the lands that contain stockpiles of magical weapons and artifacts from the ancient Vyshaanti empire.

Nar Kerymhoarth, Akh'aegishoarth, Mor'kerymhoarth - These locations are described as containing imprisoned fey'ri and stockpiles of magical weapons like golems, siege weapons, and battle platforms.

Artifacts include lore crystals, suits of armor, staves, orbs, diadems of power and items of corruption. Weapons include golems, siege weapons, ballistae and platforms. Many vaults also contain untold magical artifacts from the fallen Vyshaanti empire.
