One shot: Fringe Guild Assignment

[Cmdr Maxwell]

PREMISE: A group of you have been tasked with an assignment from the Fringe Guild (a group of people who deal with issues on the outskirts of society (land squabbles, raids, lawlessness and things of that sort). Travelling from town of Sande where the Guild outpost you are based at is located. Your assignment is to deal with a request for help from the marble mining village of Detra. The information provided by the Guild is that the marble miners here have apparently uncovered something unusual underground, which resulted in the death of several miners. The village has requested well-equipped people (i.e. the Guild) to investigate and deal with it, essentially to clear the way for mining operations to resume. Reward is 200gp per person for completing it within 3 days (Detra want this resolved as soon as possible for logistical reasons).

Assignment has been handed to you by the Guildmaster of the Sande Chapter, Hatharal Longstrider, as you are the only ones available to deal with this pressing assignment.

Chapters look after their own area, but report to a loose command structure which is based in the larger cities. The Fringe Guild covers a large area of the Fringe territory where they maintain the peace, as there is an agreement between them and the larger cities to be the de-facto 'police'.

Travel between Sande and Detra is relatively safe, but bear in mind that this part of the country is called the Fringe for very good reasons,
so it's worthwhile to be vigilant and well prepared should anyone decide to try their chances against you.
