Sylla is sitting at the back of the caravan looking at what seems to be an old map on the small wooden coffee table in front of her sofa. As usual she looks as if she was a beautifull dark haired women of 20 years old.
She doesn't seems angry anymore and quite absorbed by the map.
"Approach Jath, take a look at this. She says pointing the map in front of her with a delicate fingers. "I stole this map a few decades ago from a young men in this city. That was before your birth. Unable to decipher it at that time I toss it away and forgot about until recently. Remember that old elven wizard a few years ago. Well He was a very good candidate but his age was a big obstacle to his ability, if you know what I mean. So we ended up talking. I went through with him various things I accumulated through the years and his eyes got caught by the map. He explained me that the symbols were those of an old goddess of magic. According to the legend all spontanous caster are somehow related to her or her follower. He also told me that they controlled powerfull magic, their knowledge of the art was a few steps above everything we know now. He didn't know much more.
I decided to start my research. It was difficult to find reliable source of information and on top of that my understanding of those complex principle is rather limited.
A few months ago, I finally deciphered the map, and it lead me to this area.
She points near a small village on a modern map about a day or two from Mornonas. "At the time these maps were written the village didn't exist, and Mornonas was an elven city. I had a few problem correlating the two maps, but after reviewing my calculation. " Jath notice hand made calculation drawns a bit everywhere on the map, and is somehow surprised by his mother ability to accomplish these mental tasks. What could have taken a few hours to a trained wizards or cartographer probably took her months.
"I can safely assume that the lost temple of the goddess can be found right here on the map at these exact coordinates: Lat 42`21" Long 71`5" She says proudly.
Jareth doesn't beleive his eyes, Geographical coordinates are a fairly recent concepts and she obviously took some time to learn about them.
Jareth looks at a recent detailed map of the area and it points to a wood nearby to a village identified as Prumen.
"Jareth, maybe there is nothing there, maybe everything was robbed a long time ago but I would really appreciate if you could go there and see if there is anything of worth. I have been secretly at this for quite some time, it first began as a past time but it quickly became a passion. Now to be here would somehow conclude this fantasy treasure hunt I have been doing for 5 years. I don't know if I should be sad or happy that it will probably end in the coming weeks.
She slightly blushes as she adds (making her look very sexy in her 20 years old appearance) "Oh and in the improbable case that you find something come back and tell me, I would like to see it with my own eyes. She finishes visibely slightly ashamed of her little secret.

Solomon and Dai climbs with the silencious elf the two floors leading to the private rooms. They are in very bad condition but at that price you were expecting even worse.
"There is one bathroom per floor so you will have to share with the others" He adds in an emotionless tone.
Solomon inspects the door, they are made of solid wood, so they should whistand a blow or two from someone really determined to get in the room. The only small window in the room can also be locked.
They both go down and pay the elf, which nods with satisfaction as Solomon pulls out the magical paper from his purse. He quickly puts it in a safe under the counter and hand 6 keys, and 6 breakfast coupons to Solomon. "It was a pleasure to do business with you" The elf sits back take his book and starts reading again not paying attention to Dai and Solomon who quickly head back to the burned house.
OOC I will wait a bit to see what the wizard do before Dai and Solomon gets back there.
