Lore

A door appears, and the heroes of Norrath walk through to find a warm and cozy-looking building. Light from the windows illuminates a clearing in a forest. Music and voices as well as the tantalizing smell of cooking meat and mead drift on the air. The inn’s presence invites adventurers to rest and revel after exhausting and dangerous exploits.

Welcome to the Realm of Heroes, the place where the greatest heroes go when their adventures are over. Nobody remembers the last time anyone entered or left this place. Can you discover what the mystery is that lies under the façade of comfort and revelry? Why is the Realm open now? Why was it closed for so long? To help you along the way, there are other doors within the inn that open onto memories of when someone proved that they are a hero. You can participate in those exploits and see how heroes of the past became the legends of today. This is the time for the current heroes of Norrath to show their worth and unravel the mystery that is the Realm of Heroes.
