Destructive Creation

We're halfway done, and I think I know what destructive creation and eyes that see darkness are.

Impressive! You are as wise as you are aged.

You flatterer! Now, let me explain what destructive creation is.

There are mountainous areas that are very dry in Perion, on the northeast side of Victoria Island. The monsters there, called Axe Stumps, are part trees but still have the axe that felled them embedded in them. They embody that contradictory meaning in their grim appearance.

Double-click the Vampiric Lantern to go to the Big Rocky Road and eliminate 50 Axe Stumps.

Did something come up? Return to me when you're ready.

So, what did you think of the Axe Stumps?

As you said, they were very strange. Kind of tragic, carrying around the item that both destroyed and created them.

I see. I will record what you just said, because it sounded terribly clever. Well done.

It's time for the final paradox. Tell me when you're ready.

Nature always wants to test the limits of humans. Don't lose yourself in Perion's rough winds. Eliminate 50 Axe Stumps and use the Vampiric Lantern.
