Journey to the Eye is a webcomic about Chandra and Sarkhan Vol. It was originally published in three parts in September and October 2009.
Part 1
Affa Town, Akoum Mountains, Zendikar.
Chandra Nalaar visits the Akoum Expeditionary House and asks the owner Sachir if he can provide a guide to Anowon's basecamp. Sachir guesses that Chandra has found some cryptic relic and wants to ask the self-proclaimed ruin expert Anowon about its significance. He warns her that the route to the basecamp is fraught with danger: the spike fields are bad and the drakes of Windblast Gorge can rip het to shreds before she can bat an eyelash. On top of that, Zendikar will make her magic go wild and the Roil will get worse the higher she climbs. After assuring him that she needs a guide and not a protector, and paying him, Sachir provides Chandra with the help of Urdom, the legendary warrior of Tazeem. Urdom comes with good recommendations: it is said that he killed the hydra of the Vastwood with his bare hands, and that he climbed the Kazandu Sky Cliffs without a robe.
Despite his reputation, Urdom is quickly killed in the spike fields by a firespitting rock lizard. Chandra returns to the expeditionary house, and pays for two new guides: Mira and Tau, kor hookmasters from Ondu. The pair is said to have led dozens of expeditions through the rubble of the Sky Ruin and to have rappeled to the bottom of the bottomless shaft. Sachir assures Chandra that the kor watch out for each other and will treat her as family. Unfortunately, the kor are quickly killed in an attack by Jagwasp and Chandra has to go back again.
