The young guard seems to bristle at all the sudden attention. He shrugs his shoulders when questioned. "I guess it beats moving crates from one side of the warehouse to the other."
Inside the council room, Dolga Freddert waits alone at the council table. Dolga is an old Dwarf woman who was here when Torch was originally founded. She was said to be a good hand with a warhammer, but these days the only hammer she swings is a gavel. Her shoulders seem to relax at the sight of so many adventurers crowding into the room. "I'm sure you all have heard all about the torch going out and what that would mean for the town. Even more troublesome is the disappearance of Khonnir Baine. He went under the hill with a group of adventurers and hasn't been seen since. We are offering up an award of 4000 gold pieces for his return. If you should find him alive, we will also throw in a scroll of resurrection. To help get you started, each of you will receive a writ that will give you a 20% discount with the town merchants. Apparently the entrance to the cave is under water so prepare yourselves for that."
