The gnome nods, and scrawls something in the air with one finger. A message spell, most likely.<br/><br/>"Very well. They will have it waiting for you when you arrive at the chapter house..." He gives your group a smile, and a with a smooth gesture he produces a cluster of taldan silver trade bars.  "Of course, you are not required to undertake this task... if you wish to step down, simply do not take your token..."<br/><br/>Once everyone who is going to accept has accepted, the elderly gnome claps his hands together.<br/><br/>"And now, if you would... Your letters will take you "home," and you will be able to grab your things and say any farewells you need to say. When you are ready to travel to the Taldan Chapter, simply break your token in half, and you will find yourself in the chapter commons." He gives you all one last, weary smile, and makes a gentle shooing motion with his hands. "May the Rose herself guide you."
