- Job:
- Quest: No Stone Unturned
Rank: D
Type: Bad
Requirements:
A New Mine completed
Client:
Mattoro: Former foreman, he and his crew would go into the mines for the city's needs. During a cold winter, they were promised great wealth that would allow them to retire if they kept on mining. In the end, the additional money was never paid, while Mattoro lost many good men when the mine crashed. Enraged, Mattoro and the rest of the miners rebelled and formed the Cold Colliers.
Summary: After the explosion at the mine, Mattoro is ready to target the contractors directly, and he needs you to find out more about them. He has only seen one of the contractors personally, but he knows there are three in total responsible for the mine collapse incident that killed many of his friends. He needs you to find and write down accurate descriptions of each contractor, so that the Cold Colliers can strike against them. They are rarely in Baska together, instead they usually enter the city on specific days but Mattoro knows the days they will be in the city.
Objective: Find and gain accurate descriptions of the contractors.
Details:
Create a topic in Baska City.
One of Mattoro’s men will request your presence with their boss, and lead you to their hideout, on the outskirts of Baska in an abandoned warehouse.
Mattoro will be waiting patiently for you, and when you approach he will give you the details of the quest.
The three contractors have a meeting in four days time where they will all be together, but Mattoro isn’t sure of where the meeting will take place. In the three days leading up to the meeting, each contractor will be present in Baska, so he doesn’t mind how you wish to go about the quest so long as you get descriptions of each man correctly.
However you choose to approach it - either by locating the meeting place and finding the three men there, or discovering the identity of and tailing each man when they enter Baska – you will find out the names of the three men, as well as descriptions of how they dress, and how they act. Their names are Kalaus, Giroud and Frankan.
Return to the Cold Colliers base, where Mattoro will write down everything you tell him about the three contractors, as well as using a magic item to perfectly recreate the faces of the three men you saw.
Now with accurate descriptions of the three men and images to go with them, Mattoro will reward you, pleased that the Cold Colliers are finally getting close to their revenge.
The chaos would be heard in the background as women and men were frantic. One of Mattoro’s men was waiting where Knuckles had stored his things, having had the money owned to Knuckles and a message for him. "The boss was happy with the work Mate, Mattoro says if you are interested in some more money, he has another job for you. If you want in, follow me. " And the man moved away from the site. Knuckles was impressed, that must have tailed him here from when he left the tavern he was staying in. Having nothing else to do, Knuckles suited up and made way following behind the man. Now words were spoken as they traveled away from the mines and deeper off the path. Sometime later the pair arrived at a fair-looking warehouse. Knuckles noticed it was well built and probably done by the foreman and his lackeys maybe? For a group of miners they sure had skills, he wondered why they just did not move on and find something better instead of seeking revenge. Overall it did not matter, this work paid decent enough and scratched the ich of the Demon within his mind. The always lurking Beezelbub had found joy in the last job Knuckles completed for the former miners. While death may not have followed suit, the destruction alone did enough to calm it for now.
Once inside Mattoro’s man lead him to the back room, where the foreman sat at a table with others. Upon seeing the red-haired man walk into the room he stood laughing a big-bellied laugh. The inside was plain and simple, more like a clubhouse than a secret base of operations, but then again these men were simple folk.
"Hohohoho! My friend you came! Ah but of course you did, I knew it from the moment I saw you, you spoke and dressed like a company man outside the office, but you fought like a warrior with something to prove no? Like us, you want revenge on someone who wronged you and you let that beast out. Anyway, the job. " The man paused as he let a growl escape his mouth and motioned for the room to be cleared. Walking towards Knuckles, after everyone moved past the armored man and motioned to place an arm around the Shoulder of Knuckles. An armored hand lifted to grab the wrist of the man as Knuckles stared daggers at him. No words were needed as the man cleared his throat before motioning to the table taking a seat behind it. Knuckles scanned the room before moving to the table pulling the chair out with his foot and taking a seat in a manner where his left palm laid on top of his sword.
