The Mage Towers[]
From
unknown origins
they came
They
live isolated
beyond the city
The extent of
their arcane power
is unknown
We must be
very cautious
in dealing
with them
Close
observation
must continue
-- Keeper Xavier, Treatise on Mages
The Talisman of Earth is guarded by a foreign mages' sect known as the "Hand
Brotherhood".
They reside in a compound of huge towers, where they practice their arts of
Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. The Talisman is likely kept in the Earth tower,
but there's little chance it'll be that simple. No doubt the Talisman is
heavily guarded and probably protected by magic.
But mages love to write everything down...I should "stumble" on something
useful about their precious trinket.
I bribed some servants to get me a map of the common grounds...the best I could
do since only the mages are allowed in the towers. I'll enter the courtyard
just outside the central keep entrance.
Once inside I'll need to move quickly to find the Talisman. I wouldn't
last long in a fight against the mages.
