[QUOTE="MarauderX, post: 1820658, member: 9990"] While at Sukyskin, Alex ventured around to a lonely area free from prying eyes. There he pulled out the small jeweled box that he had taken from one of Golthar's chests. He examined it thoroughly, and it still seemed to have a sense of magic about it, but wasn't sure if it was related to a trap or keeping the box sealed, so he went ahead and started on the lock. From across the camp, Jerrin, Thovaas and Varekai heard a loud explosion and saw a small puff of black smoke mushroom into the sky. They rushed over to see Alex, his face and chest black, acting as innocent as the day he was born. He offered a few excuses and they left him alone, each thinking that perhaps he was trying to learn magic. As soon as they were gone he pulled out the box, the jeweled finish unblemished from the magical explosion. It took Alex nearly an hour to finally pop all three locks at the same time, but when he opened it he could certainly tell it was worth it. Inside was a diamond and two saphires, a golden needle with golden thread attached, and a scroll. While the saphires might fetch 500 GP each, the diamond was worth much, much more. Also inside was a scroll of parchment with some ancient writings. Alex spent the rest of the day deciphering the script and placed his translation below it. It read: [COLOR=MediumTurquoise][I]“The appliance of the golden needle and the needle’s adjoined never-ending thread to the tapestries will yield results when applied to unique cloths that have been enhanced magically even when the fabric and tool combined were not fashioned in juxtaposition with one another. Likely it is then that such combinations could be made using codes to reveal writings and more that may have been hidden within the fabrics that were meant to be unlocked. It is also as likely that messages could have been further scrambled, or worse, given misleading information if a certain combination of the needle, thread and material were combined. Such magic would only be of deception; there lacks strength in the magic behind such subtle messages to enfold effects of devastation. It comes as no surprise that the coding and the needle should have a combination of colors as to indicate a truthful response from the target material, and in this we have found through the magic of true seeing and stronger filtering devices.
