Gardr Keck |
|
| YOU: Hello again. |
|
| Gardr: Welcome back, YOU. |
| Gardr: I have been seeing a lot of you lately. |
| Gardr: Are you here looking for more work? |
|
| YOU: Yes I am, do you have any? |
|
| Gardr: Perfect timing! |
| Gardr: I need you to take some plans to Warinn Klumdt, the Hydlaa engineer. |
|
| -Gardr hands you a small rectangular sealed box.- |
|
| Gardr: The plans are inside. |
| Gardr: Warinn will know how to open it. |
| Gardr: Now, make sure the only person you give that to is Warinn. |
| Gardr: Travel safely my friend, and be watchful, as the roads are full of all kinds of cutthroats. |

Warinn Klumdt |
|
| YOU: Here, this is from Gardr. |
|
| -Warinn's eyes light up with interest.- |
|
| Warinn: I have been waiting on this; my interest is definitely piqued. |
|
| -Warinn looks at the box and scratches his chin.- |
|
| Warinn: Now to remember how to open it… |
|
| -Warinn holds the box up and peers at it from different angles.- |
|
| Warinn: Ah yes… |
|
| -Warinn presses a small notch on the side of the box and a panel slides to the side exposing a small tumbler lock that is set with a series of letters.- |
|
| Warinn: Yes yes, I have to set the right words…what was my clue… |
|
| -Warinn looks thoughtful.- |
|
| Warinn: Gardr told me all I had to do was 'regard sky' and the key would appear. |
|
| -Warinn scratches his chin again.- |
|
| Warinn: Regard sky…regard sky…rearranged into two words that would represent the way to unlock the chest. |
|
| -Warinn looks stumped.- |
|
| Warinn: Can you help me? |
| Warinn: Solve this for me and I shall reward you well. |
| Warinn: Just speak the answer once you have solved it. |
|
| -Warinn fiddles with the lock while he waits for your answer, a puzzled frown on his face- |
|
| YOU: gardrs key |
|
| -Warinn tries the letters.- |
|
| Warinn: By Talad! |
| Warinn: I think you got it! |
|
| -Warinn lifts the lid of the box. His expression shifts from a grin to puzzlement, and then to a worried astonishment.- |
|
| Warinn: Oh no…no no…this cannot be! |
|
| -Warinn stutters.- |
|
| Warinn: It…it…it's empty! |
|
| -Warinn's shoulders slump and his head hangs.- |
|
| Warinn: What…how…what… |
|
| -Warinn looks to you.- |
|
| Warinn: It is very important that these plans be found! |
| Warinn: Will you help me find out what happened to them? |
|
| YOU: Of course I will help you. |
|
| Warinn: Oh thank goodness! |
| Warinn: I don't think I can do this on my own. |
| Warinn: First things first. |
| Warinn: We need to find more out about this box. |
|
| -Warinn nods.- |
|
| Warinn: Yes, we do. |
| Warinn: Go see Noxdar Darmeth; I think he is the one who built this. |
| Warinn: Ask him about Gardr's box and see what he has to say. |
|

Noxdar Darmeth |
|
| YOU: What can you tell me about the box you made for Gardr? |
|
| -Noxdar smiles proudly.- |
|
| Noxdar: One of my first attempts at a little lock box. |
| Noxdar: I think it turned out quite grand if I don't say so myself. |
|
| -Noxdar looks at you with a curious expression.- |
|
| Noxdar: Say, you're not the first one to come asking about that box, it must be pretty popular. |
| Noxdar: There was this Enkidukai that was here just a short time ago asking all kinds of questions. |
| Noxdar: His name was Pauril, or some such. |
| Noxdar: I have seen him before, hanging around the Temple of Laanx; looked a mite shifty if you ask me. |
|
| -Noxdar arches an eyebrow.- |
|
| Noxdar: Might want to ask that fella what he knows. |
| Noxdar: Oh, and if you need any little things made, remember my good works. |

Pauril Rentaurin |
|
| YOU: What can you tell me about a box that was made for Gardr? |
|
| Pauril: Oh that thing? |
|
| -Pauril grins.- |
|
| Pauril: Not so hard to crack, especially when there's a simple code. |
| Pauril: Gardr's key. |
|
| -Pauril laughs and waves a rolled parchment at you.- |
|
| Pauril: Maybe this what you're looking for? |
| Pauril: I'll just bet it is. |
|
| -Pauril laughs again.- |
|
| Pauril: Tell you what: if you really want it, I'll sell it to you for ten circles. |
|
| -Pauril smiles widely.- |
|
| Pauril: Or we can make a bit of a profit and sell it. |
| Pauril: I have a buyer lined up but I can't go meet him right now because I'm waiting on a… |
|
| -Pauril looks around.- |
|
| Pauril: …delivery. |
| Pauril: You go on my behalf and we'll split the profits. |
| Pauril: So what do you say, buy or sell for profit? |
|
| Possible Ways: 2 |
|
| Way 1: |
|
| YOU: I'll buy it. |
|
| Pauril: No sense of adventure. |
| Pauril: Give me ten circles and it's yours. |
| Pauril: If you don't have them on you, just come back when you do. |
| Pauril: I'm not going anywhere. |
|
| YOU: Here are your tria. |
|
| -Pauril smirks, his tail twitching slightly.- |
|
| Pauril: Pleasure doing business with you. |
| Pauril: Here you go. |
|
| -Pauril hands you the parchment.- |
|
| Pauril: They're yours now; who you give 'em to or what you do with 'em isn't my business. |
| Pauril: But I'm sure someone needs 'em. |
|

Warinn Klumdt |
|
| Warinn: Ah! |
| Warinn: Thank goodness you found them! |
|
| -Warinn looks grateful. He slips the plans under one arm and digs in his purse for a few coins. Warinn looks down at the coins and nods as he passes them to you.- |
|
| Warinn: Please, please, take this for your time and troubles, my good Gemma. |
|
| Way 2: |
|
| YOU: Let's sell it, I'm liking this profit word. |
|
| -Pauril smiles.- |
|
| Warinn: I was hoping you would see things my way. |
| Warinn: You ever heard of Zak? |
|
| YOU: yes |
|
| Warinn: Good! |
|
| -Pauril grins.- |
|
| Warinn: Take the parchment and seek out Zak, tell him you have Gardr's plans and when he asks how much, tell him eighty circles, I know he has it. |
|
| -Pauril looks stern.- |
|
| Warinn: Stand firm on the price. |
| Warinn: Once you sell the plans, bring the circles back to me and we'll divvy up the loot! |
|

Zak |
|
| YOU: I have Gardr's plans. |
|
| Zak: I've heard rumours that Gardr had plans for some special weapon. |
|
| -Zak looks skeptical.- |
|
| Zak: You say you have them? |
| Zak: Are you here to sell them? |
|
| YOU: Yes. |
|
| Zak: Let's cut to the heart of the matter, I haven't got all day. |
| Zak: How much? |
|
| YOU: Eighty circles. |
|
| -Zak shakes his head.- |
|
| Zak: Forty circles, that's my only offer. |
| Zak: Will you take it? |
|
| YOU: No. |
|
| -Zak mutters something under his breath and then looks at you.- |
|
| Zak: All right, eighty. |
| Zak: Hand over the plans. |

Zak |
|
| Zak: I'll remember this. |
|
| -Zak tosses you a pouch filled with tria.- |
|
| → Go to
Pauril Rentaurin |
|
| YOU: hands Pauril the tria pouch. |
|
| Pauril: Good work! |
| Pauril: I can't believe we pulled this off! |
|
| -Pauril counts quickly through the pouch and nods. He passes about half of the coins to you.- |
|
| Pauril: You did your part of the deal admirably. |
| Pauril: Now take this and scuttle off, before someone sees us together. |
