In Game Description

Farsight is the ability to craft crystal balls with which you can influence the events of a far away location. The crystal ball can be focussed on one room within Elysium at any one time, and you alter where the ball is focussed with the various abilities that may be available to you.

Each crystal ball has a zone of influence, which must be captured from other crystal balls. Many of the abilities within farsight can only be carried out within the influence of your crystal ball.

The time it takes to spread your ball's influence depends upon how far you are trying to spread it. Capturing influence far away takes considerably longer than capturing influence nearby.

To craft a crystal ball, type craft crystal ball. You cannot construct a crystal ball in a location which already contains a crystal ball. Crystal balls can be destroyed by troops, if the commander commands the land that your crystal ball sits within.

You can give others access to your crystal ball using the usual access system. Type crystal ball access.

To divine the crystal ball which is bound to a room you stand in, type divine.

Learning

Farsight is taught by a tutor located in the towers of Aronsol.
