Adventure Hook

As you wander through the trade roads between the major cities, you soon meet a familiar face, who treats you to a meal in exchange for willing ears. The chancellor/advisor to the local lord waits until most of the crowds have drawn away from you before telling you any news beyond small talk. Finally, the tale begins.

Recently, there has been rash of major thefts from the rich and powerful. This obviously has many locals concerned. Rumors say it is the work of the corrupt commander of the local army, but none know the truth. It's up to you to get to the bottom of the controversy and learn what it means for all the folk and lands around isolated farms and outlying areas. In exchange for your aid, you'll gain the reward of a minor magical item as well as additional accolades as heroes of isolated farms and outlying areas
