=================================================================================== Title :Three Crowns (Version 1) Author : Bryan Gleason (alias BBB) Contact Info : bgleason@evare.com Homepage : n/a Date Finished : October 2007 Briefing : You have been contacted again by the Keepers. Why can't they leave you alone? Unfortunately, they seem to know when you are short on funds and the rent is due. As usual, you will meet with them and see if you can get paid handsomely for doing some good deed. The Keepers are telling you a tall tale about mystical powers. They were right about Constantine, maybe they are right this time. Evidently, in the age before the millennium, there lived a civilization, the gybane tribe, across the great sea who possessed some unusual powers. They made 3 magic royal crowns which provided almost unlimited power to the holder when all three were held together. The Grand Wizard, the King and an Archbishop each held a crown and the balance allowed the powers to be used responsibly to keep peace and prosper. The tribe prospered greatly. They had no natural enemies and the great sea kept outside civilizations safely away. During the age of expansion, Benedict and his great armies built hundreds of boats and attacked the gybane tribe. The crowns were stolen but due to political infighting, the crowns were never kept together as a set. Therefore, according to the legend, no great power was ever released to a human. Most folks thought the stories were nice tales passed down in pubs over ale. The crowns turned up on the black market and were recently purchased at a great sum by Lord Nicholas who is having them displayed at the cathedral this week. The Keepers need you to intervene and quietly take the crowns. You are to deliver the crowns to Keeper Mark and the Keepers will get them back to their rightful owners. Of course you will be well paid so off you go. Meet Keeper Mark near the east tower and he will direct you to where the crowns are being stored. You may pick up some loot for yourself for your trouble.
