Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mark Chance" data-source="post: 1138408" data-attributes="member: 2795">A gray, greasy rain drizzles outside the Hall of Records, running in depressed rivulets down the ornate facades of the government buildings of the Clerk's Ward, draining into the gutters, carrying flotsam into Sigil's sewers. As always, the streets of the Cage are busy. Bureaucrats, scribes, sages, and scholars with books and papers clutched tightly underarm hustle head down but eyes forward on errands unknown. Hardhead patrols look for trouble, and almost everyone else tries to not look like trouble. Humans and halflings, tieflings and aasimar, githyanki and githzerai, elves and orcs: denizens from all over the multiverse are present, and everyone pretty much leaves everyone else alone. Even the fiends are careful when in Sigil.In the main hall of the Registry of Deeds and Testaments, which sits across the quadrangle from the City Mint, there are dozens of doors, and every door leads not only to a room but to another place. Every door in Sigil is a such a door. All that is needed is the right key, and anywhere can be reached.Yesterday, five bloods received a package with this message: Metatron has died. Report to the Registry of Deeds and Testaments, Room Eight, by tomorrow mid-day. Gate key enclosed. Failure to appear will result in forfeiture of bequest.Metatron: sorcerer, adventurer, busy-body, an aged human who never seems to age. Each blood had, in his own time and place, been Metatron's associate. Metatron's knowledge and skill with sorcery was widely regarded to be without parallel, at least within mortal circles. Stories, perhaps spread by Metatron himself (for he was always a shameless self-promoter), claimed that even the balors and pit fiends spoke softy around him, and that the Lich Queen herself once consulted him on matters arcane.The time for the appointment in Room Eight of the Registry of Deeds and Testaments draws near. Soon, the bloods of Sigil make their appearances.</blockquote>
