Sightseeing in Krokotopia

I must say, after spending so much time in Wizard City, with it’s winding streets lined with buildings, Krokotopia is completely different and amazing in so many ways. You can really feel the age of the place, the history of the ancient Krok and Mander races tied up in those ancient monuments and tombs.

Madame Jasmine and I headed for the library – being a student I do still focus on my magical education, and these ancient Kroks obviously had access to some pretty serious magic. Make the Helephant look like a Bichon Frise by comparison, I’m sure.

After the Library, while talking with the Mander Hetch Al’Dim, an amazing and somewhat scary portal opened up, a huge sphinx head emerging from the earth as lightning shot around. Madam Jasmine was scared (OK, Ditto was a little scared too!) but Hetch told us not to worry and that, some day soon, we, too, would be passing through that terrifying portal to a place that many braver souls than we had dared not enter…

One of the most amazing structures in Krokotopia – aside from the legendary Krokopshinx – is the Great Pyramid. Madame Jasmine and I took the typical tourist shots here, but I must say I was truly impressed and amazed by the sheer scale of the pyramid, and only became more impressed and awe-struck when we got inside. These ancient Krokotopians were amazing, truly brilliant and talented artisans. It’s sad that sand-filled tombs and ghosts is all that remains of this one proud people.

Of course the great pyramid is still full of powerful Fire Magic, as any Pyromancer can tell as soon as they set foot in the amazing entrance hall. After talking with Professor Winthrop about the unfortunate goings-on there in the tomb and Krokotopia as a whole, Madame Jasmine and I took some typical Fire School tourist shots to share with our teacher, Professor Falmea.

I feel that I will be exploring Krokotopia for quite a long time, as the place is huge and, sadly, there is much trouble here, stirred up by the evil Malistaire. I’m still a young student, only just having reached level 16, but thanks to my lessons with professor Falmea I am proving to be a formidable opponent to all but the most dangerous of the foes I face here in the dusty tombs. I look forward to more exploration and discovery!
