[QUOTE="themind, post: 2581224, member: 25168"] After you all sit, an acolyte offes some hot tea. Once you are settled, Jenya begins. [color=blue]"As I am sure that most of you know, there has been a brash of kidnappings the last few months. The victim would dissapper during the night, and their placed picked clean of valuable possesions. The most recent of the kidnappings happened to be four children from the Lantern Street Orphanage, and despite the attack of Ruphos, I'm not going to back down from finding them." I am glad that you want to help. I will run down the info that I have already. It was three nights ago that the children were taken, their names are Deakon, Evelyn, Lucinda, and Terrem. On that night, none of the other children of orphanage staff heard or saw anything. The rooms are set up where there is one bedchamber for boys and one for girls, two children from each room were taken. The windows are barred in each room, and the locks are of excellent craftsmanship. The children are also locked in their rooms during the night so they don't cause any mischief during the night. However, there was no sign of entry. You are also aware that I have publicly vowed that the Church of St. Cuthbert would find the children and bring the kidnappers to justice. To that end, I have used the Star of Justice, a strong weapon that only the church's high proest is supposed to use, and since the High Priest is at the Capital at the moment, I saw no problem in using in this dire time. The Star of Justice has the power to use [i]Divination[/i], however it can only be used once per week. I used this power earlier today. I asked 'Where are the children who were abducted from the Lantern Street Orphanage?' and I recieved a cryptic answer.[/color] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"The locks are the key to finding them. Look beyond the curtain, below the cauldron. Beware teh doors with teeth. Descend into the malachite 'hold, where precious life is bought with gold. Half a dwarf binds them, but not for long."[/COLOR] [color=blue]"I believe the first line of the riddle refers to the locks at the orphanage. I would like to hire you all to help find the children and who ever else that was kidnapped in the last few months, and to bring the kidnappers to justice. I can offer each of you a [i]Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds[/i] and 2500 gp after the completion of your quest[color] she says.[/color] [/QUOTE]
