Attention, citizens of Autumngrove. This is a broadcast from the Council of Watch.”
Time presses hard upon us, and the moment for action is now. The Department of Commerce has issued its final summons for adventurers to take up a mission that cannot wait.
For decades, our empire has sought safe passage to Cinderforge, yet every path has failed us. The canal of Thalldora remains closed, and delay only strengthens our rivals. But hope endures: Professor Felix Carlisle has charted a daring course through the Amethyst Vale, a river route both perilous and untested. This path may be the key to reaching Cinderforge at last and to securing a trade accord that will change the fate of our realm.
Adventurers, hear this: the Professor departs within days. Those willing to answer this call must present themselves at once. To linger is to lose the chance, and with it, the empire’s future.
Escort the scholar. Brave the Vale. Seize this chance before it slips away.
This is the last call, Autumngrove. The Council urges all who would prove their courage and loyalty to step forward without delay.
For Autumngrove. For the Drueican Empire. For the promise of tomorrow
