Description:
I've been hired to retrieve four ancient Talismans for a rich collector, Lord
Turell. The Talismans are buried in a Tomb underneath the graveyard in an
abandoned part of the city. Should be easy, although Turell has hired others
before me. None of them have been seen since. Even the Hammers are rumoured to
have tried.
According to Turell, a local collector named Morgan had translated some of the texts
written by the ancient Masters. These Masters dabbled in the arcane and legend would have
us believe the Talismans are protected by this ancient power. Morgan's translations
should help me defeat this power.
Turell has provided a map of the area. My first stop should be Morgan's museum, then
the local Weaponsmith to stock up. My funds are low and Turell will only pay on
delivery. Maybe the Church will have some supplies I can use.

Der Fluch der Altvorderen - Handlung:
Der reiche Sammler Turell engagierte mich, vier antike Talismane zu bergen. Sie befinden sich in Grabmälern unterhalb des Friedhofs in einem verlassenen Stadtteil. Sollte einfach sein, allerdings hatte Turell bereits andere damit beauftragt, und niemand hat diese Leute je wiedergesehen. Man sagt, sogar die Hammeriten hätten es schon vergeblich versucht.
Turell teilte mir mit, ein örtlicher Sammler namens Morgan habe ein paar der antiken Texte der altvorderen Meister übersetzt. Diese verfügten über geheimnisvolle Kräfte, und ihre Überlieferungen sollen uns glauben lassen, die Talismane würden von diversen Zaubern behütet. Morgans Übersetzungen helfen mir sicher, diese Kräfte zu überwinden.
Turell gab mir einer Karte der Gegend mit. Ich sollte zuerst Morgans Museum aufsuchen, um mich danach beim örtlichen Waffenladen zu bedienen. Mein Budget ist beschränkt, und Turell zahlt erst bei Lieferung. Vielleicht findet sich in der Kirche auch etwas nützliches?
