Extended Description : 

The Fifth Vortex & Ehactora’s Story
TIMEFRAME/DATE:
It is approximately 25 years since the events of Return to Na Pali. The Skaarj are much fewer in number, with only a few pockets here and there. The cause of their demise, while certainly contributed to by Prisoner 849, is still mostly unknown. Recently however, there has been sudden spike in their population.

SITUATION BRIEFING/MISSION PREMISE:
Since the events of Return to Na Pali, and the subsequent decline of Skaarj presence on the planet itself, Na Pali has become the target of smugglers and raiders looking to loot any remaining Nali ruins or temples. While the famous temples of Vandora and Velora, along with the chambers of Chizra, have all been desecrated, there are still a few left. The Nali had several other gods and goddesses of worship, including “Ehactora”, the Nali Wind God. Ehactora is believed to be the cause of “all movement in the universe” and is rumored to have spawned the likeness of Vandora (goddess of Lightning) and Chizra (Nali Water God).

There is evidence of a sacred place of power and worship to Ehactora, known only as The Fifth Vortex. It is rumored that by rotating Ehactora’s sundials, The Fifth Vortex will be activated, unleashing an immense, powerful vortex which will allow instant movement to other sacred locations on the planet.
Your mission is to make your way through Ehactora’s passage, explore his temple and collect any artifacts along the way to the area in which the sundials rest. Activate the sundials, thus unleashing the Fifth Vortex. There are also several huge gems you should collect and transport to their eventual resting place.
PROTAGANIST PREMISE:

You are Lieutenant Lazurus Stevens, a former Marine officer on the UMS “Poseidon”. Your pilot and first mate, MSGT O’Neal has been your trusted friend since you both left the service. Since then, you both have joined the ranks of the many smugglers and traders. That said, you have no love for the Skaarj, and activating and controlling The Fifth Vortex should only help in further eliminating them.
But the main reason for activating the vortex, and placing the gems in their proper location is for none other than fame and fortune. No human has even seen Ehactora’s ruins or the vortex. Collecting artifacts from it and activating the vortex will make you one of the most famous smugglers and explorers ever – making you the top choice (and highest paid) for future missions.
