Caravan Contract
This wrinkled piece of parchment appears to be a written contract of sorts:
Balin,
Deliver these five crates of supplies to the emporium in Easthaven. Make sure to get a fair price from that unscrupulous Calishite weasel, Pomab. Use the profit to aquire three barrels of uncarved scrimshaw from Gaspar's warehouse there in Easthaven. Return to Caer-Dinival with the three barrels and you shall have your agreed upon payment. Keep your eyes to the tundra. There have been reports of orcs in the hills outside of Easthaven. It might be wise to use your advance payment to hire on some extra caravan guards.
Safe journey,
Ilmus Gallaway of Caer Dinval |

Journal of Evayne | EVAJOUR |
The last few weeks have been a blur but I will recount as best as I can.
Arriving at Dorn’s Deep in the middle of the night did not lead to a warm welcome by the dwarves, especially with what had come to past between both our races. As expected, the dwarves were very apprehensive to what I had to say. There were too many fresh and open wounds between both our people. Situations like this are never easy but I consider myself as good a diplomat as father, perhaps better. Each day spent in council did not end until late evening and always in pure exhaustion. We argued and bickered over the recent past events. Athough we still continued to spend countless hours in council, the dwarves began to trust that I hid no maliciousness behind my words. The dwarves agreed to a treaty in the name of the greater good for both our races later that week. I had been successful in my part. I saw hope for the first time in many months.
The only thing left was to return home and convince my own people that this was our only chance at true salvation. The hardest part would be to convince father but he will listen. He must listen; else let our people face death. The next morning almost made the last few weeks’ work in vain. A dwarven scout arrived and told of the largest orcish army he had ever seen was only hours away. With little time to prepare, our defenses were overrun and the orcs began to pour into Dorn’s Deep. We began our retreat into the depths of Dorn’s Deep. Key passages were collapsed to cover our movements and buy us time. Even in such dire conditions, this allowed the dwarves to control when and where we would fight. Every battle cost the orcs dearly as the dwarves fought on their terms but we were still being driven farther and farther back. Even now, we make preparations to retreat further into Wyrm’s Tooth Glacier.
Even as grim as this sounds, I still hold hope. Hope that I will tell father of how I fought side by side with our dwarven friends as in days of old. Hope that he will hear the tales of the dwarves who sacrificed their lives so that I may return home someday to reunite both our people. Hope to see my father’s stubborn face once again.
For my people and the Seldarine’s Hand, Evayne |

Mythal Theory | BOOKMYT |
Mythal Theory By Schend and Melka
… Aside from the High Mages, none are certain about the true nature of mythals, no matter how well versed they are in ancient elven lore of old or current debates on magical theory. Many agree that a mythal is alive, and is a huge web of magical forces woven together by magic and the lifeforces of the casters. The mythal is believed to be sustained by the natural mechanisms within and around it, from the wind to the current of a brook or a temperature shift from the energy of sunlight. Given the ties to life and Faerun, mythals can hardly be common wizardry, no matter what may have been said in the past. The mythals and their magic are tied directly to the Weave, the source of all Torillian magic… |

Portrait of Marketh | PORTRAIT |
This is a rolled up portrait of Marketh done in charcoal. His pose is that of an elegant statesman.
C6 Quest : When you receive the Portrait, it sets a flag that allows you to avoid combat with Flozem when you meet him in Marketh’s Palace. To do this, you need to have a bard talk with Flozem when you meet him, and he will drop all his items and leave. Note that you do not need the Portrait itself to do this, you have to receive the Portrait from Callard, creating the Portrait through a cheat will not work. |
