As most fans of EverQuest and EverQuest II know, the lore contained within the world of Norrath is a culture in and of itself. SOE developers have always gone above and beyond what you might see in typical games to create a history that comes alive and a delves into the mysteries of the world in which we play.
There are few dedicated enough to follow the extensive lore, but the keeper of The Athenaeum is one such passionate person!
Time does not pass here like it does in the worlds we study, but the passing of those times is noted by us. Though the purpose is the same, the faces of our patrons change. Patrons move on through the cycle of life in their world but there is also someone new to take up their place in the quest for knowledge. We have seen several storytellers and historians from Norrath pass from time and visit us no longer, but a new face has emerged to begin his trek through our corridors to teach us what he knows of the events that unfold in the lands of Norrath. My first encounter with this character was not like anyone I had met before.
You can find just about everything you would ever want to know about Norrath and the people who have lived there on this site and it makes for a great read! If you've ever been curious about EQ2 lore or perhaps would like some answers on a particular topic, I encourage you stop on by The Athenaeum and check it out!
