[QUOTE="ethandrew, post: 5101581, member: 17456"] Latham leans back in his chair, the front two legs lifting slightly off the stone floor. The rumors appeared to be true, artifacts, riches, this was the key. The potency of his adversaries was unknown, but sure to be vast, given the fact a lich resided in the Valley. Balling his fist up, Latham places his mouth in the opening like he was about to trumpet, and he appears lost in thought at this news. Finally, rocks his chair back to all fours, elbows on the table, and breaks his silence: [sblock=Elven][color=palegreen][b]"This is not an easy mission, both in terms of task and concealing this from the Paladins. They already do not trust me, but value my skills. I've no doubt they'd toss me aside as soon as my usefulness ends. So I'd be putting my life at risk, but undoubtedly you know this, hence your seeking another to do it rather than complete it yourself."[/b][/color][/sblock] He waits a moment, gauging the wizard's reaction, before continuing on with the compensatory matter at hand. [sblock=Elven][color=palegreen][b]"As for payment, it is threefold: Anything I find I keep, save the artifacts mind you; after the mission is complete I request the ability to study through any books of research or tomes your master may have; and lastly, two thousand gold per day of my mission, or two hundred fifty gold for each spell that I cast, whichever figure is higher is that which I receive. For a master blessed with gold, influence, and knowledge, this seems hardly a steep price for such rare artifacts. And I assure you, I will be diligent with my tracking of spells performed."[/b][/color][/sblock] Latham leans back once more in his chair, awaiting the reply to his demands. [/QUOTE]
