The Realm of Heroes -- East Freeport  

Wonder if it is possible for Verant to implement a method that would allow only those accounts tagged as involved in the Hero quest to download the appropriate Plane files??? Bet ya didn't think of that one when you assumed that since the files were not on your machine the zone cannot exist. ;) BRU HA HA!

I recently got the urge to check out all of the races and classes and thus have begun a quest of on pc in every combination possible. In that quest I have found a Realm of Heroes NPC in every town of size. There is a Dwarf in Kaladim near the warrior guild, an ogre in Oggock, a paladin in Qeynos, A barbarian in Hallas, a lizzard in Cabalis, and the bard in Freeport.
I feel there is one in every town, I have not tripped on any more. It has become a passive quest for me, the Realm of Heroes.

They give the coins out to role players at GM events. Each class has a "hero" accosiated with it.

You can sometimes find coins in bodies of water in cities. I wonder if that is what he talks of?

There's a bard in WFP where everyone does their brewing, or more correctly, on the side of the white building away from the building with brew barrel. He says the same thing, spins big tales. Think i'll /petition for the quest.

The only way to do this quest is to participate in a GM quest. They will give you a coin that you then hand to this npc and then they give you an item that is godly (sometimes only demi-godly). That's all there is to these npcs throughout the world that speak of the realm of the heroes. Hope this clears things up.

I've come across other people from the realm of hereos throughout norrath. An NPC in Cabilis who tells his tale about training under 2 mastaers who hated eachother. This young iksar later defeted both masters using the other masters training. The iksar did many other great deeds and became tribe leader of the iksars. He was taken to the realm of heroes then much later sent back to norrath to gather more heroic adventurers

Whilst wandering around Freeport, I spied this NPC lazily stood next to a tree and hailed him [Mallory].

He then asked me if I was travelling or if I had time, would I like to hear some of his tales. When I remarked that I was travelling, he informed me that Jaylia the Faithful (see above) has some tales of her own to tell.

However, I was in no particular hurry as I had no particular destination in mind, so I asked Mallory to relate some of his tales. Mostly, they related to his childhood spent growing up on his [farmstead]. Although, he did mention a tale about the [Realm of Hereos].

When I pressed him about this tale [Realm of Hereos] he broke into song and verse about his travels from Qeynos to Freeport, when upon he spied a [vision of loveliness], who possessed such beauty he had not seen before.

So entranced by his songs that she whisked him to the [Plane of music] and asked him to perform in a concert with other beings. She is then refered to as the 'Maestra' - Ayonae Ro.

I have yet to go to Qeynos to talk to Jaylia -- perhaps Jaylia can elaborate a little more on:
(1) who this vision of loveliness is. Is she Ayonae Ro? (2) maybe the start of a quest to discover directions to the Plane of Music (if such a plane exists).

Interesting tales if a traveller has time to rest their weary feet.
