Gerar of Szil.
Your adventure begins.... now!
Otto Schosenboom always was a fool. You were not in the least bit surprised to hear that the Snorks had cornered him for various legal infringements, nor that he had lashed out clumsily and got himself hanged. You weren't even bothered to watch him swing.
What does concern you, however, is where the amateur demonist hid his research. He may have been a fool, but when it came to his secret art, he was necessarily paranoid. If the Traders' Concourse had learned what he was involved in, they never would have tolerated him. But none of that matters now. All that matters now is that you be the ultimate beneficiary of his secret ... research.
To this end you entered the Concourse on "regular business" while everyone else was at his execution, sneaked into the back rooms, and then the basements, and the sub-basements, and the lower cellars where you forced entry into Schosenboom's tiny store. By candle light you turned the place over in search of any clue.
Finally, you found the secret half-height panel behind his paltry desk, and the narrow black stair that descended into darkness from there. This must be the entry to Otto's private chantry... surely?
What now?
