The continent of Barovia contains thirteen areas, each with its<br>
own charms. The bard in the Blood on the Vine Tavern in Barovia<br>
will reward you with some experience points and directions to<br>
these places if you can demonstrate to him your knowledge of<br>
these areas. This will also help with the Explorer Challenge<br>
quest. Talk to the bard to start this quest.<br>

You can type 'help bards' to see how the bard system in Tsunami<br>
