SEPTEMBER.
GOING TO LIBRARIAN HELL - ★★ - TAKEN BY ELIZABETH YORK
Heard of the sigils? You're about to. The Brucolac has heard rumours that in the library of the University of Redgate, a manuscript known as the History of Bones is being translated and decoded in utmost secrecy. It deals with the sigils. Steal or destroy the manuscript and deal with the translator...somehow. No more information about the sigils can be leaked to Seelie hands!
This quest may have multiple outcomes according to how you prefer to play it—eg, kill or spare the translator, destroy or keep the manuscript, or even snaffle it for yourself etc etc, but there will be IC consequences depending on your choices!
Rewards: 50 gold, an introduction to the Midnight Court (if you are not already associated), a lockpick charm capable of counteracting basic wards.
QUAKING IN MY BOOTS – ★★
Recent earthquakes have troubled the land around Mair. Locals and earth magic specialists alike say there's something off about them. Go to the small eastern villages on the Seelie/Unseelie border to provide aid, encourage Unseelie support in the area and while you're there see if you can't find out what's been going on.
'Aid' may be medical or military, or might involve gathering food, or helping with reconstruction; whatever you're best at!
Rewards: 40 gold, acclaim and approval around the area (a crucial tactical area in the War of the Shards!), and a travel-ready first aid kit stocked with medicinal herbs and notes on where to find more.
GOD IS HOPEFULLY NOT DEAD - ★
The Brucolac wants to encourage the growth of the cult of Kaio, a young fire god who is considered an easy target in the Godswar and of very little concern. But now the poor wee dear has gone missing. Go out and evangelise, worship etc, but also keep an eye out and an ear to the ground.
Write 1500 words of your character worshipping, spreading the fiery hype and trying to find out what's happened to Kaio.
Rewards: 20 gold, a foot in the door of an exciting new religion, and three enchanted candles: light one in a sealed room for complete privacy of speech!
MAYHEM – ★ - TAKEN BY EGGSY UNWIN
Misdirect! Misinform! Misbehave! The Brucolac wants you to cause a night of havoc and hysteria in Seelie and/or neutral territory and escape as quick as you can; he'll lend you his puca, Accalon, to let you cross leagues in moments and to help you make a quick getaway when the sun is up. You'll also be armed and equipped however you feel necessary, for free. Burn crops in the Cathraon, spread lies in Treun, graffiti up the White Citadel, dress up like a Fox Cultist and give everyone a scare, slaughter innocents, tie shoelaces together or bankrupt businesses; whatever you do best, go out and do it, and keep the Seelie on their toes.
Write 1500 words of pure mayhem.
Please note that despite this being close in nature to the event for August, quest threads can't be used towards boon requirements!
Rewards: 20 gold, keep the gear (decent armour and weapons if you so desire them), and get an invite to the Midnight Court when next it's held.
