To be blunt, don't waste your time."[/COLOR] The dwarf chuckled to himself, but, seeing that it was not enough to dissuade the elf, continued, [COLOR=DARKORANGE]"That place has been searched up and down by children and adventurers alike for as long as I've been here, and no one's ever found anything of interest.

If you’re looking for something a little more interesting, let me point you toward a different cairn. The Whispering Cairn that is. It hasn’t been touched in nearly six years, when kids started disappearing there. Even before then, no one dared look into it more than a stone’s throw.”[/COLOR] Knowing his oration skills were not exactly the stuff of legend, Boldak finished quickly, hoping that this was enough to buy him some tip on what opportunities might lie back the way Tirra had come.
