Argemis the brewer |
The years of drinking have not been kind to Argemis, whose pallid face is nestled deep in quivering sheathes of blubber. Having spread across his upper body his paunch has colonised his nether regions, his legs puffing into swollen globes of rippling blubber. Permanently ringed by blackened shadows and riddled with bloodshots, his squinting eyes follow you nervously. Argemis the brewer is a picture of health and vitality. Argemis the brewer is not holding anything. Argemis the brewer is not wearing anything. |

Orthalgin the thane |
Orthalgin is an old man now, and time has weathered his features aplenty. His robes of ceremony hang about him, emblazoned with the bright embroidery of his peoples. His faint smile speaks of a sadness within. Orthalgin the thane is a picture of health and vitality. Orthalgin the thane is not holding anything. Orthalgin the thane is not wearing anything. |

| You notice a few broken flagons, and many others which have been simply left to moulder with a thick head of beer still swimming within. Hoses and other parts of the brewery have been left also, accompanied by small heaps of grain and malt in their raw form. |

| The letter is written in almost illegible handwriting, spidery lines which scrawls out crude letters in a dull red ink on the worn parchment. "To Argemis, brewer of ale, The artifacts you send are worthy. Five hundred gold is given as reward by the Goblin Kingdom." It is signed by a terrible serpentine S, the mark of the Shaman of Orc town. |
read letter |
| The Thane grasps the letter and reads it slowly. When he finishes his eyes are afire with vengeance. "This is evidence I required to blacken the name of Argemis - proof that he has sold the artifacts of our people to the Goblin Brood!" |
give letter to orthalgin |
| The Thane calls forth his noble Yeomen. "Go ye and close the foul Brewery of Argemis! Beat him and his men from the village and bid them never return once more, for they are traitors and scoundrels." The sturdy Yeomen nod grimly and set forth with their pitchforks and scythes to rid the village of the evil brewer. |
|
| Orthalgin turns to you and smiles. "Well done, for you have rid this village of my foe. No doubt it was him who was responsible for the theft of my staff." He blesses you in the name of the village and grants you freedom of the town. |
return to orthalgin with body of argemis |
| Orthalgin the thane hands 200 pieces of gold into your possession. |
