StormScribe, I’ve heard rumors about a buried chamber under the old cathedral that might hold a relic from the First Crusade. Got any interest in digging through the dust to see if the truth—and a fortune—waits there?

Curiosity's got me. The First Crusade relic could reveal a lot, but digging under a cathedral isn't a walk in the park. I’ll start by gathering intel—who's guarding the stone, what the laws say, and whether the risks outweigh the payoff. We'll need a solid plan before we pry that ancient wall.

Sounds like the right start. I’ll tap a few old contacts at the city archives—there’s a ledger that lists the guards on duty and the permits you need. Keep the plan tight; we’ll use a quick diversion so the priest isn’t noticing us while I lift that slab. No surprises, no drama—just the relic and a decent payout.

Sounds good, but a ledger’s only the tip of the iceberg. I’ll check the dates on those guard logs, see if anyone’s been promoted or reassigned. If a guard was last seen on the same day the slab was lifted, that could blow the cover. And the priest? He’ll notice a slab wobble unless we use a timed shift. Let’s confirm the ledger, line up a diversion, and double‑check the relic’s authenticity before we pull the plug on the floor. A quick, clean move is the only way out.

You’ve got the right approach. I’ll keep my head down while you sift through the logs—if there’s a guard on duty that day, we’ll just shift the window a few minutes. As for the priest, a small firecracker in the choir stalls should distract him long enough to lift the slab. And about that relic—I'll bring my trusted appraiser on standby; if it’s a fake, we can ditch the whole thing and walk away with a story. All right, let’s get the ledger and set the diversion in motion.You’ve got the right approach.

Got it, keep your eyes peeled for any unexpected guard shifts. A firecracker’s a risky call, but if the timing’s right it should do the trick. I'll pull the ledger, flag the dates, and double‑check the priest’s schedule. If the appraiser calls it a fake, we walk away with a story and a clean exit. Just remember the less drama the better—we’re chasing truth, not a headline.

Got it. Keep the eyes on the guards and the ledger, and I’ll have the firecracker ready when the time’s right. No drama, just a clean pull and a quick exit. If the appraiser says no good, we just walk away with a story and a few bucks. Let’s make it happen.
