/Nay....

common knowledge that is easily found through the well known fan sites...

and the Droks Run is a specific Run...not simply a run to Droks....that can be anything...

A Droks Run is the Run From Beacon's Perch to Camp Rankor to Droks...probably the most difficult run in the game which takes a lot of practice...

and technically because of the Droks Run...Ascension is not an essential part of completing the Prophecies Campaign. If you get run to Droks you can finish the campaign by doing Iron Mines to get infused...then Thunderhead to get to the Ring of Fire...then finish the campaign with the Ring of Fire Missions
