Overview

There is a magic, long forgotten by many, the magic of the earth, of gems. Taric's father was an excellent healer, and Taric was genuinely interested in his father's pursuits, even from a very young age. But soon enough, Taric had exhausted his father's extensive library and set off on his own. He was not to be a healer, but a defender, using the magic of the earth to protect.
