Description
As Alban sat at a table in the tavern of the keep, looking in his empty pint, his mind wandered. “My first real quest,” he said to himself. “That was fun while it lasted, but I can’t just stop now. Out there, thousands of other adventures await. Who knows where our next adventure will lead us?”
“I can help you with that,” said a woman’s voice.
A young lady, at least a few years younger than he, with golden hair, emerald eyes, and a fair complexion, sat down at his table. Leaving her gnarled staff balanced against her chair, she looked at him with a broad smile.
“Who’re you?” the ranger asked, examining the lass as she pulled a scroll from her satchel. “You look rather young for a client.”
“I don’t want to hire you as mercenaries,” she replied. “I’d like you and your comrades to help me find Shardfall.”
Alban scratched his chin with his index as he grabbed the scroll and examined its contents. “A map heading north through . . . The Blasted Mountains? Do you even know what lies there?”

Laurinya’s smile turned into an almost devilish grin. “I do. And that’s why I require your assistance.”
