To a party of seasoned vampire hunters such as yourselves, what you see is but another dull tavern, in another dull town, in some nameless province. It is but another span of time between the challenges of true adventuring. A dense fog had settled over the town, amplifying its drab taste. The damp, cobbled pavement glistens as the lights of street lanterns dance across the slick stones. Chills run up your spine and stand the hairs up on your arms. Like reeds jutting out of a lake. To escape the creeping trepidations, you enter the tavern. Inside the tavern walls the food is hearty, and the ale is warm and frothy. A fire blazes in the hearth, and the tavern is alive with the tumbling voices of country folk. Drinks shared, food devoured, the night wasn't a total loss. Suddenly, the tavern door swings open and smacks the walls inside, silencing the noise. Framed by the lamp-lit fog, a form strides through the doorway. The convivial attitude of the tavern picked up after he shook his coin purse and hoarsely grunted, "One round on me." The light from the tavern illuminated the man. His garish colored clothes draped in loose folds about him, and his dingy brown hat hung askew, hiding is eyes in shadows. Without hesitation he walks up to your table and rummages through his pockets. He pulls a wet folded letter from one of his pockets and places it on the table. He groaned out in an accented and guttural voice, "I have been sent to deliv'r this message. If you be creatures of honor, you will come to me masters aid at first light. Take the west road through the Svorlick woods." He smiled. His yellow teeth revulsive, yet proud. With a spin of his heel and flourish of his cloak, he was gone.
The letter is lying before you. The seal in the shape of a crest you don't recognize.
"I aint touching it til we all agree on the job." His orcish wasn't as good as it once was, but he liked to keep up the practice with his mates. Fizzgig, his owl, chirped in agreeance. He leaned back in his chair, the hearths fire revealing his scarred face. "What's the verdict? Rest, or worry?"
