The Scroll of Temperance

Find · Fair work

Asked by Sage Anikkar of the Spire (via the Archive). A favor, not a contract.

Sister Calla slides a brittle wax tablet across the desk. 'Sage Anikkar of the Spire is missing a scroll: the Scroll of Temperance, a single-page Arcane work. We have reason to believe it is in the ruined chapel near Briarquay. If you find it, the Archive will pay you in a scroll of your choosing from the lower stacks, and Anikkar will owe you a single named favor.'

Target: obsidian archive

Estimated: ~5 days

Reward

  • · Archive Voucher (one scroll, lower stacks)
  • · Favor owed by Sage Anikkar (one Arcane consultation on the road)
  • · arcane order reputation +5

On completion: a 1d10 outcome roll adjusts the payout (lean / standard / bonus / exceptional).

Will you take Sage Anikkar of the Spire (via the Archive) at their word and run the favor?

The road begins

Sister Calla unrolls a map of the Briarquay road on the desk and taps the ruined chapel with a fingertip. 'It is two days out, then a day to the chapel itself, then home. The scroll is single-page, Arcane. Do not unroll it. The Archive is patient. Anikkar is not, but Anikkar will wait.' You take the road south.
