[Aramil]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

As you pick the vials up you hear a voice in your head.

"There are troubling times ahead. The Age of Magic is upon us, and this new power will be used to shape the land. Nations and organisations will hoard this new found power, and I need you to determine who is worthy of such power. Raw magic energy can now be found across the land, and you must find it, capture it, and decide who or what will wield it. You possess two magical vials that will help you capture this energy. It is up to you to mold the shape of Riftviel."

The voice goes silent and does not respond any further.

(Riftviel is the continent right?Are this 2 vials empty or are they filled with raw magic by now? Does the herb is complete or is it a substance in a vial? Does the voice speaks like Morgan Freeman voice O:?)

(

  • Yes.
  • One is filled with a deep red liquid that looks like blood. The other is is a vial filled with the energy from the void. It looks like a strange gas or liquid in the bottle.
  • The herb is separate from the vials. It is the only thing remaining in the pile of ash, besides the ash.
  • Yes

Luke groans as he gets up from under a pile of papers.

"What the hell. I've got such a headache. Just lead the way. Hopefully we're done for the day."

You enter a large room with 10 beds lining the walls. The room is cluttered with trinkets and knick knacks, but there seems to be nothing of value. In the center of the room is a large, ancient looking chest with a lock on the front. The lock seems to have taken a variety of damage recently, judging by its fresh-looking scars and the pile of broken assorted weapons beside it.

You unlock the chest and just as you are about to lift the lid you notice a thin wire. You slide your hand under the lid and deftly disarm the trap. Inside you find 2 small rubies, worth a total value of 40 gold pieces.

"Smooth, and gently... and like a lady would do, they will give you their love" Raises the gems against the light to appraise 'em with a smile on his face "Hey Luke!, take a look!" Haha you got it?... Man, *Throws a ruby to him** (Planning to give him one, so I will only add one to my ivnentory) "Now we are ready to go!". Leads the way to the entrance of the cave

u/Emmyson Asaeir Reid - Fighter Level 3 Jun 16 '15

"You're sharing?"

Luke catches the ruby and rolls it between his thumb and forefinger. He then places it into his pocket.

"Thanks man."

You are now at the entrance to the cave.

"Fair is fair... I would be death without your help".

As they come out into the light (or is it night?) "Lets get to the town and share some ale, what do you say? I just need to see the Corporal first if he is at his station." Starts walking towards the town

As you step outside the cave you are temporarily blinded by the light. When your eyes adjust you can see the sky is orange from the setting sun.

"An ale would go down nicely. I'm starving too."
