Scene 92

Noble

We meet again—what luck! Or perhaps you are down on your luck, and in need of work once more, hm?

Noble

Mm, yes, no need to deny it. I can sense these things. Were I to shout into that sorry purse of yours, I imagine I would hear an echo.

Noble

Lucky for you, then, that I have a job that needs doing. You would do well to accept it.

Noble

Hmph—your hubris may be the end of you yet. Not that I expect an overworlder to understand the concept of humility.

Noble

Excellent—then allow me to explain the task at hand. According to legend, there is an ancient device located deep in the hills called the Heaven's Rift.

Noble

Find it and report back to me with the details, won't you? Perhaps those overworlder gadgets of yours will lead you right to it.

Noble

Then it's a deal. Your reward shall be something an adventurer like you would die to get their hands on. Not that beggars can very well be choosers.
