You say, 'Hail, Priestess Franci'

Priestess Franci says, 'Ah, another brave adventurer I see! Did you get lost on your way to the tavern, perhaps?

You say, 'Why would you think that?'

Priestess Franci says, 'I don't know, I just figured they would send someone more... capable. Well, no matter. If you are brave, perhaps you will want to assist me in the investigation'

You say, 'What would you like me to do?'

Priestess Franci says, 'Well, I don't know exactly what is going on here, but I was sent to investigate reports of... unsavory activities taking place. As you can see, the students don't appear to be very cooperative. I don't know why I was picked for this assignment! Apparently some Erudite named Zoldin went off the deep end and started some sort of cult.'

You say, 'What do you know about Zoldin?'

Priestess Franci says, 'Not much. Supposedly he was some sort of gifted Necromancer - already someone I wouldn't associate myself with. But now he appears to be working on his own.'

You say, 'Cult?'

Priestess Franci says, 'Well, that's where you come in. If you can find any proof, please bring it back to me. I don't know what sort of things you will find in there...'

You say, 'Great... I'll get right on that!'

Priestess Franci says, 'I know what you're thinking, but we can't let this get out of hand, and I'll be sure to make it worth your while. Er... good luck!'

Now I can return to my guild and hopefully my next assignment will be a quiet guard post or something. I'm too old for this nonsense. Err.. right, sorry. Here, take this. Hand it back to me if it doesn't fit your needs, and maybe I can find something more appropriate. Maybe we will meet again someday...'
