GUILD CONTRACT: CONSTRUCTION PROJECT #001-TG
ISSUED BY: Officer Excella, Chief Logistics Officer
REWARD: 20 Gold Pieces (For each adventurer.) Additional bonuses may be awarded for exceptional performance
I. OBJECTIVE
The Adventurer's Guild has approved the construction of a permanent Training Grounds facility for guild members. To ensure the arena is safe for combat exercises, the Guild requires four (4) Crystal Wardstones capable of anchoring powerful protective enchantments. Travel to the mines near the abandoned wizard tower, located several hours outside Dawnport. Guild scholars believe the mines contain the remains of an old magical observatory whose protective crystals can be repurposed for the Training Grounds. Retrieve exactly four (4) intact Crystal Wardstones and return them to the Guild. Any additional historical records, magical diagrams, or notes regarding protective wards should also be recovered if possible.
II. MANDATORY CONDITIONS
Do Not Damage the Wardstones. Cracked or shattered crystals cannot properly hold enchantments. Damaged Wardstones will not count toward completion of the contract.
Preserve Any Arcane Documents. Do not use recovered scrolls, books, or diagrams as campfire fuel, improvised torches, or makeshift bedding. This instruction exists because someone did exactly that last year at the Central Continent.
Return Within Seventy-Two Hours. The construction crew is already assembled and being paid by the day. Delays will increase project costs considerably.
III. KNOWN HAZARDS
The tower and the mines has been abandoned for decades, long before the settlers of Dawnport came. Expect unstable stairways, collapsed chambers, falling masonry, and wildlife nesting within the structure. Guild records suggest several magical defense mechanisms may still be active. These include animated objects, arcane traps, and unstable magical phenomena left behind by the tower's former occupants. Local hunters have also reported unusual lights around the ruins at night and the occasional appearance of creatures seemingly formed from living magical energy. Whether these reports are accurate or merely the result of excessive drinking remains unknown.
IV. ADDITIONAL NOTES
Successful completion of this contract will mark the beginning of the Adventurer's Guild Training Grounds project. Guild members who contribute to the construction effort may receive commemorative recognition upon the arena's completion. More importantly, future adventurers will have a place to settle disputes (fight, spar) without accidentally reducing one another to ash or having long-term injuries.
