'Hail! Have you a need for one of our hand-made harnesses?' inquires the beaming shopkeeper. 'Show your work Willard.' 'Aye, Arthur.' replies Willard. 'This one is almost finished!'

You spot a resident looking through his tomes. He looks up and greets you. 'I guess you have been to Stonebridge and know of the tragedy of our two towns. I have been trying for years to duplicate the explosion...created by the Wegman brothers which welded the wand and crystal together to create the Scepter. If by chance the items are found, but Gerard is not, we need a way to reunite them once again. The brothers left no notes on their experiments, which I guess may have been wise. At least we know the Scepter cannot be used by evil for their purposes.'

Everything has been sold or stolen by those leaving or those here trying to find the Scepter. It will be some time and by then...' She stops as the tears well in her eyes. You mumble your apologies and leave.

An elderly resident of Rivermoore reaches out his hand in friendship. 'Welcome to Rivermoore! I am Joshua Doore. I do hope that you are here to seek the mystery of the sacred Scepter. We could use all the help we can get. I have travelled Stonebridge and Rivermoore for years gathering what information I could, but I must be missing something. I sense the pieces of the Scepter near, but cannot for the life of me discover their hiding place.'
