    Welcome, TERA fans, to another installment of Massively's exclusive A Day in the Life lore series. The recent news of TERA's spring 2012 launch delay may have dampened your spirits (or perhaps bolstered them if you're of the release-it-when-it's-ready mentality), but En Masse is here to tide us over with another interesting story snippet from the world of Arborea. This time around we're treated to the tale of Volorius, a devan soldier who makes a pact with an unlikely ally named Gernakul. Gernakul is a dracoloth, and as you can tell from the screenshot above, he's not to be messed with. Aside from decimating a camp of heavily armored soldiers and snacking on a overconfident sorcerer, Gernakul is possessed of a treacherous and nasty disposition, as Volorious soon learns. Read about his fate after the cut.

    What would it truly be like to harness raw magics in the palm of your hand? How would you handle the knowledge that you could freeze or incinerate anyone who even looked at you wrong? It's these questions that TERA's sorcerers grapple with on a daily basis. Fancy weapons and shiny armor are no match for a six-hundred pound ice shard slamming into you, after all. That sort of ability should be licensed, but any player who logs into TERA will have the opportunity to give it a spin with no restrictions. As TERA's content writer, En Masse's Fran Stewart has a good idea what goes through a sorcerer's head. Today, she brings to us this exclusive peek at a day in the life of a sorcerer. It's not just a fun little story, but a look at how this class functions in game. Turn the page and ignore the monster at the end of this post!
