The Eye of the Stag
#1
As the fire crackles in the hearth, the tavern buzzes with the chatter of patrons, but one voice rises above the rest, capturing the attention of nearby adventurers.

“Listen up, folks! I’ve got a tale that might tickle your fancy,” a burly man begins, wiping ale from his beard. “It’s about a crypt explorer named Theren Parelvas, who’s gone missing down on the south coast of Thay. His cousin, a desperate lad named Eldrin, is offering a hefty reward for anyone brave enough to track him down.”

He leans in closer, eyes wide with intrigue. “Now, here’s the twist—if Theren’s met his end, Eldrin wants someone to bring back an heirloom he carried with him: a longsword with a crossguard shaped like an eye. The sclera is an emerald gem, surrounded by a copper eyelid. A striking piece, no doubt.”

The man’s expression turns serious. “Theren was known to don a full plate adorned with a golden stag symbol, and he was last seen with a dwarf companion—gruff as they come, but loyal. Eldrin believes they might have come to a bad end, but if they did, he still wants their belongings back.”

He gestures dramatically. “The tricky part? Nobody knows which crypt they ventured into! But Theren has a habit of leaving his journal behind in secure inn rooms. Might be wise to start your search there—see if you can glean where he headed off to.”

With a sigh, he leans back, looking around the room. “So, who among you has the guts to dive into the depths and uncover the fate of Theren Parelvas? Just be warned—those crypts hold more than mere memories.”

The atmosphere thickens with anticipation as eager adventurers consider the risk and reward of the quest ahead.

((This ongoing event is open to all characters. It will be active until someone finds this heirloom item which is lost. If you think you've found it and wish to speak with Eldrin at the Champions Inn, northern Tyraturos... then write DM Halvtolv a message either here at the forums, at discord or ingame (Itheszil is his PC). ))
