**''Deciphering the Codex of Mirrors:'' Chance deciphered an ancient Umbral map known as the Codex of Mirrors, thought lost to time. His knowledge of the Umbra allowed him to navigate its cryptic reflections and locate a forgotten glade of Wyld energy, which he shared with the local Fera to rejuvenate their connection to the Wyld.
