"Right, then let's start from the beginning..." Cefrey takes a cylindrical leather case off of her back, opening it up, pulling out a number of maps, and spreading them across the table, making sure to leave some room for the food they will be bringing. With a glance at both of them, she adds, "This may get a bit long, but if you have any questions, please refrain yourselves until I've finished."<br/><br/>"Now then, as you both probably already know, this here is the fortress city of Tarnegar, the capital city of the Kingdom of Alandal and the home of King Myraz." she says, pointing to where the city is marked on a map, within the norther part of the Karuten Plains, just south of The Forest of Shadows. "What you may not know is that within this city, and probably across his entire kingdom, Myraz has been terrorizing his citizens. At first, the city guards would pursue anyone who might pose a threat to his rule, raiding the homes of rebels and protesters of his militaristic rule, but now, they persecute anyone who so much as speak poorly of him or defy them."<br/><br/>"Unfortunately, it only gets worse. Myraz has in his possession a magical artifact he stole from the king of Dragonblight, King Stormrider... 150 years ago. As long as he has this artifact in his possession, I'm afraid that there is nothing anyone can do to stop him. Not only is his lifespan extended by it, but it also makes him invulnerable... Well, at least as far as I know, it's very possible that it has more limitations or functionality than that." she says, shrugging her shoulders.<br/><br/>"In any case, my good friend and leader of the resistance within the city of Tarnegar, Vennar, has entrusted me with the task of venturing to the capital of the Dragonblight Kingdom and requesting the aid of King Stormrider. He also entrusted me with the Dawnhammer Blade, and if you remember what Ariadne said, it has quite a history behind it and it should help us at least seek an audience with the king. If you'd like to see it, I'd be happy to show it to you later, but I'd rather not pull it out anywhere it might attract unwanted attention."<br/><br/>Looking over Barty and Teral, Cefrey asks them, "Now, do either of you have any questions?"
