Victoria Qwest's Report:

The history of Rachel is well known to adventurers who have made the trek out to this far away land, but for all of you who haven't traveled there yet there is a ton to see and do there!

Rachel was originally founded by pilgrims who established a shrine for the goddess Freya, and cultivated the desert lands into a beautiful oasis. As the influence of Freya worship spread through the Arunafeltz States, so did the political power of Rachel-which became the nation's capital.

A highly devout people, the citizens of Rachel have made the Rachel Sanctuary the highlight of the city!

Rachel is a great place to visit, and despite the heat the people of Rachel are very friendly to visitors. Adventurers who are curious about the spiritual side of Rachel can make the trek up the steps running through the center of town to Cheshrumnir, where the pope (Rachel's religious leader) lives. Other travelers have told me that it's not always possible to enter, due to a finicky lock system protecting the temple.

Two major destinations nearby is the rumored dungeon beneath Rachel Sanctuary and the Ice Dungeon to the north. These areas are recommended for adventurers over level 100.

To visit Rachel, you will need to catch the Izlude/Juno/Rachel route Airship, the most convenient stop being at the Izlude airport.

The adventure begins in Prontera (60 342) When you are contacted by a messenger who has you seeking a magical item that was in the possession of your late uncle.
