A flock of deep indigo ravens with streaks of violet in their feathers soars across Eden, each bird carrying a scroll tied with crimson ribbon and stamped with the wax seal of the Ardyn.

The Emerald Dusk
With great excitement, I, Lucien Voss, Overseer of the Ardyn, extend this invitation to you—hunters, scholars, and dreamers alike! The Ardyn stands as a beacon for those with the courage to shape their own path and a vision to uncover Eden's deepest secrets.
Today, I herald the dawn of innovation and discovery. The Ardyn shall establish a department of Research and Discovery. This department will focus on the biology of creatures, the mysteries of botany, and other areas of intrigue, including the Arcane. Those with brilliance and dedication will find not just purpose but reward, for merit is the currency of greatness, and the Ardyn spares no expense for the deserving. Researchers will primarily delve into the biology of creatures and botany, exploring the systems of Eden's life, and documenting and publishing their findings to the greater world. However, its reach will not stop there. All areas of research are welcome within its halls, whether you seek to study supernatural phenomena, catalog rare minerals, or uncover truths long buried by history. This is a haven for thinkers, inventors, and seekers of knowledge.
Researchers shall receive funding on a merit-based understanding, ensuring that only the finest ideas receive resources to flourish. This is not merely a place of idle academia but a crucible where bold experimentation is rewarded. The department shall also act as the custodian of the Ardyn library, which I endeavor to grow into Eden's largest collection of knowledge. To the nations and scholars of the world, I extend an invitation: share your findings, contribute your tomes, and help us build this temple of enlightenment.
Finally, among the most ambitious undertakings of this new era is the creation of a sanctuary unlike any other—a haven for Eden's wildlife and exotic creatures. While the word 'zoo' may be unfamiliar to most, this sanctuary shall serve as both a marvel for all to witness and a center of learning. Here, we will gather breeding pairs of the most extraordinary beasts, from the swift to the colossal, from the majestic to the grotesque. These creatures will be given space to thrive, ensuring their survival and allowing us to study their nature. Hunters of skill and repute are called to action; bring forth these animals, alive and in pairs, and you will be richly rewarded for your efforts. This will preserve the beasts of this world and provide insight into their habitats, behaviors, and role in Eden's ecosystems.

This sanctuary is not merely a collection of beasts—it is an educational institution, a place for scholars, mages, and researchers to study the creature's biology, magical properties, and potential to aid in medicine, agriculture, and even combat. We shall learn how these beasts coexist with the natural world, and uncover their hidden strengths.
