Graphic Novel:The Last Shangri-La

Traveler is asked by Hana Gitelman to deliver a message to a man named Drucker in the Kingdom of Bhutan. He enters the country, and easily adapts to his surroundings thanks to his command of languages. Traveling on foot, he soon reaches a village in the mountains. Upon leaving, Traveler falls down an incline and injures himself. He shouts for help before passing out.

When Traveler awakens, he is in a warm bed, tended to by Bhuddist Monks. A man in grey, Drucker, asks for Traveler's message. Traveler informs him that his message is from Hana Gitelman, to whom Drucker is related.

Memorable Quotes

"As I pushed deeper into the country, I started asking about a man named Drucker. Fortunately, I speak Dzongkha. My ability to communicate and speak virtually any language, spoken or otherwise, is surely a plus."

Notes

• In an email, Yule Caise said, "I came up with Traveler after thinking who and what I'd like to see in the Heroes world. I spent much of my twenties wandering the globe. In creating the character of Traveler I wanted to come up with a power that I wished I had when visiting and/or living in various parts of the world. And it was especially important for me to have a character that I would hang out with, and party with, even now."
