Gurdek shows the map to Oskar and Barask. "A halfing dropped it off here a couple years back, saying that he didn't have time to decipher it. And I understand. It's in bad shape."
The map is in terrible shape. It is faded, crumpled, torn in a couple places, scrawled on, has more than one drink spilled on it, and calling it "worse for wear" would be generous. Only the words "ARTIFACT HERE" remain legible, right over a spot that might be above or below something else. It is impossible to read anything else, or know where any landmarks are with the map in this state.
"You'll have to find some way to restore it," Gurdek continues, "but there's got to be some magical way to do that. Anyway, it's yours, congratulations. Enjoy!"

"About usual," Keldar opines. "From 'Gibbon' to 'm'lord' is a step up." He taps the folder on the table. "Let's recap. Thieves came to a fiery end after first tunnelling to the nonexistent basement of Thyrin's tower, following an unused plan drawn up by a Fallonese architect living in Orussus, whose name Thyrin couldn't remember. They left behind maps of other places, some for certain in Fallon, complete with secret doors."Solange said:
"Now, I think our first step should be to find this architect and approach him, subtly. When we find him, I think Rapture and I should pose as newlyweds who want to commission a home built in Fallonese style."
Keldar beams.
"Er, is there a Fallonese style?"

Are you still interested in the armour? If not, I'll pass it on to Barask... it's not much, but I'd like to see a halfway decent piece of gear get passed on to a player that'll use it. [/sblock]
"From what I can remember of the Fallonese architecture, they seem to favour roofs over their head. And, um. Four walls... yeah, four walls." Galwynn says slowly. "And a door. Windows, too, I think."
With a sharp hiss, he shakes his head. "Who cares about the Fallonese style? Does it seriously matter? Why don't we just find the architect, ask him nicely, and if he doesn't help out, get a little forceful? I'm sure me and Rapture could play 'Friendly Priest, Angry Paladin' well enough to get him to admit everything we want to know. And it'd save all of us from learning something about bloody Fallonese architecture."

"You make a great angry paladin, Galwynn, and if you want to act with all the finesse of an ettin with two migraines, then I won't stop you. But there may come a time when knowledge of Fallonese architecture could save our lives. I'm going to make sure I learn where all these secret doors are. You never know when you might need to find one in a hurry. And I'm always trying to improve myself. In fact - Oh, the shovel, yes."
Keldar pulls the shovel out from his pack. "Here it is. See, there's a strange seal on the twisty handle. Does that mean anything to you, Fimbus? Thyrin said we should ask a bard. Other than me, I mean, because for some reason, I don't know. The best way to find some bards, if you want my opinion, would be for me to stand in the square and start singing some of my new compositions. All connoisseurs of fine art would be drawn to listen."
