Hardin's Academy
Hardin's Academy is located in a cave in the northern part of Dragon Valley that was originally owned by Lich King Icarus. It can be reached either by teleporting from Giran, Oren or Hunters Village, or by walking to the northern end of the Death Pass, then turning east, following the hills encircling Dragon Valley, until one comes to the rather impressive cave opening. Hardin, a former student at the Ivory Tower who detests the elitism there, is teaching in his private academy necromancy to anybody who is willing to learn and undertake some risks to gather the somtimes quite exotic ingredients needed for the various potions and elixirs. There are two branches of necromancy, healing and resurrection, and both are being taught by Hardin and the other teachers at the Academy.
While Hardin is away on his errands, Magister Kaspar is in charge of the Academy. Kaspar and his colleagues are always looking for helpers from various backgrounds - the Academy is open to all races - and he offers free accomodation and training in exchange for services rendered.
