Mel turned to Alice" Well honestly it was on a job that I was to track down and return a women to another women. . It was a challenge cause I had very specific rules to follow and capture the other women and return her. It was apparently something the women to be captured got a thrill out of. That's not what your were asking sorry.  When I got back home  and was going through my equipment I found the book in my back pack. It was not part of the pay and I did not pick up a book in the chase it was just in my backpack. It was really strange. So here we are now."<br/><br/>She then looked over each party member as they were discussing treasures. "Since I am the employer on this I could hold on to these treasures we find cause I am bound by guild law to fairly distribute these items or face heavy fines or other forms of censure. We could also use a Mediator from the guild if necessary to help with the decision."<br/>Mel smiled and let them continue discussing for a bit. She looked at her watch and it  was now eight pm.<br/><br/>" I'll start cleaning up if you all want to have a look over your equipment or just relax  the appointed time by the book will be in an  hour." Mel  began moving plates and storing the food and at about  ten minutes till  nine she set the book on the now empty table. " Would everyone please come around the table  its going to be soon  when the book will transport us to the dimension."<br/><br/>Mel put her hands on the book and  stated everyone name  to it right at nine pm. The book started to  glow and in a flash of light  you are all pulled into a portal. The ride is not a smooth one and quite turbulent unlike previous times many of you have travelled through portals that are maintained by experts  by the Freelancer's.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">GM notes for everyone</div><div class="spoiler_body"> <br/>Feel free to wrap up the conversations in your next post  before moving to being around the table.<br/>Also everyone please make a DC:30 con save<br/></div></div>
