The flickering neon sign of "The Crooked Quill" casts a jaundiced glow across the rain-slicked street. You pull your collar higher, the chill seeping into your bones despite the late hour. You're not here for the atmosphere, though. Or the watered-down whiskey they serve. You're here for information. For weeks, you've been chasing whispers, fragments of a truth buried deep within the underbelly of Aethelburg. Aethelburg, the city of gleaming spires and shadowed alleyways, where magic is a commodity bought and sold, and secrets are the most valuable currency of all. Your quarry is a name: Seraphina Thorne. Once a renowned artificer, now vanished. Some say she fled. Others whisper of foul play. All you know is, her disappearance is connected to something bigger, something that threatens to unravel the delicate balance that holds Aethelburg together. The door creaks open, revealing a smoky interior and a cacophony of hushed conversations. A gnome with mismatched eyes sizes you up from behind the bar. He knows you. Or, more accurately, he knows what you represent. You're the type who asks questions nobody wants to answer. He nods curtly towards a secluded booth in the back, occupied by a cloaked figure nursing a glass of something that glows faintly green. "He's expecting you," the gnome rasps, his voice like gravel grinding against stone. "But be warned...the price of information in this city is steep. And sometimes, you end up paying more than you bargained for." This isn't just about finding Seraphina Thorne anymore. This is about survival. This is about uncovering a conspiracy that reaches the highest echelons of power. This is about deciding how far you're willing to go to find the truth. Take a deep breath. Straighten your shoulders. And step into the darkness. The game has begun. Your move.
