A New Quest Begins!
Costa heads outside.
"Hi Ralf! Is my scabbard ready yet?"
"Oh hi! Yes sir, yes it is! I did the best I could with it too, I hope it's to your liking?"
Costa receives a Fancy Scabbard for his sword. It is made of leather and hide and has an intricate pattern etched into its sides. It is a very nice piece of craftsmanship!
Back inside, Dashon appears out of Savage's back room. It looks like they've got a new quest!
" Ok every one who entered you get 5gp if I've not given it to you yet and as a bonus you all get a better chance of going on my quest i'm about to tell you about if you sign up.
For All you have a choice for you first prize, automatic selection into my quest, a magical Pearl or a magical dagger.
Finally let me tell you a little about my quest in Rhyme Form if i may.
There once was a goblin called Tempts Fate
who accidental made an inter dimensional gate
to the mud-honey world
in which he was hurled
and escaped with a belt, which was great.
This broken dimensional gate started to leak
seeping mud-honey into our world, after about a week
it was found by some clans
who always made plans
but they didn't know their future was bleak.
As the portal was like an endless spring
the mud-honey was used for many things
from healing to food
to putting you in the mood
this great find made them all feel like kings
It wasn't to last as war was coming
clan teller had foretold the battle drumming
ÔÇ£we must hide the portalÔÇØ
the teller did chortle
ÔÇ£but to do that we must first change the plumbingÔÇØ
So a fountain was built around the flow
with magic and craft the work was slow
but hide it the must
or all would be dust
as if found there'd be even more woe.
When done, powerful magic sent it away
just in time, before the big fray
they fought hard but lost
we all know the cost
butchered by those that wanted to slay
The fountain now rests in a sort of maze
where again and again is a repeated phrase
ÔÇ£follow the vowel to the fountainÔÇØ
I believe it's in a mountain
as I have seen it in a dream or a daze.
The great dream she goblin told me
to seek out a swamp guild and see
or rather I should find
goblins with such a mind
to pass puzzles and riddles with glee
they must be warriors or brave of heart
of course they must be also very smart
they must solve each room
or it will spell there doom
but for those that want in, I know where you start."
