[QUOTE="97mg, post: 7352169, member: 6799460"] [b]Gerralos & Annit with all[/b] The young woman smiles as Carthum regards the paper with suspicion. "Nick them? I'm honored that you might think I could do so. No. Like you I am a servant to the innocent believe it or not, a collector of sorts, working to protect our people by acquiring information, and other things that will be needed to see our land's peace returned." The old man stops his digging for a moment and also looks to the half-orc. "You are right to have questions. Best to ask them now, but be quick about it, our time here is limited. Nobody is questioning your faith or prior contracts lad," he states in deep but apologetic voice. "The work to be done is not Suru's alone. Several groups, faith's and schools of pre-Dolstian thought have reached their conclusions, one and the same. Sad perhaps that it takes turmoil within The Sands to see them reach agreement. By marking the page, you are accepting the support of not just Suru alone. The situation, as you have no doubt heard, is dire." He waves his hand in an arc before all in the gathering. "Do not underestimate the complexities of what is required of you. You are symbols of an allegiance to reclaim this land's sacred strengths, and it will take more than a church, a hidden conclave of magic-wielders, a society of pickpockets, or an old man digging to see it done. They know the risks you assume by acceptance, but they will endeavor to protect you, just as they have protected myself and my bloodline. Let it be said that you are not alone. There are folk of similar innate potential, right now, marching towards the mountains on there behest. You, I think, have received a far fairer task, though most likely a more important one." He picks up the shovel again and stabs its nose into the dirt. Clang! "That's the sound of iron on iron. An old entry to the earliest workings of the mine below, untouched for more years that you might count. It is uncharted save for this entry, and an exit down level with the sea. Over these cliffs our people poured their magic, stones and greater potential in a war against greed. Now they must be re-discovered, as greed is to be the last of our woes. The scales have tipped, friends, and in our weakness new horrors arise to take our place." "You are thinking that these written words might be used against you, are you not? They shall not leave this place nor touch another's hands. Perhaps if one of you might have the courage to sign, or mark the page, you can be witness to the fading of such fear." He returns to work then, prying at an iron plate's edge with his shovel, using his weight against it as leverage but failing to open the door any more than a crack. [/QUOTE]
