The Great Library of Palanthas

Astinus' Office

Dominating the center of this room is a massive birch desk. Legend claims this desk has supported the thousands of volumes of history Astinus has recorded. A large pot of ink, a container of sharpened quills, and a candelabra complete the desks decorations. Small windows line the room, allowing light to trickle in and gently illuminate the entire room. A comfortable couch rests against the west wall. Tapestries hang on the walls between the windows. Shelves line the walls, filled with tomes of the more recent records of heroes and villians upon the face of Krynn.

The librarian notices you aren't reading anything... Astinus hands a journal to an Aesthetic standing by you. You note the spine bears the word 'Tnaxz' scribed in dark purple ink. As you glance down at the page you read..

From the pages of Tnaxz's book..


Author: Tnaxz Date: Thu Dec 11 20:24:07 2008 Subject Knife of teh Dracart: A goblin tattles "Dard. Leave," Tnaxz growled, waving at the goblin. A goblin messenger had recently informed Tnaxz of a lost item of value belonging to the Dragonarmy. As the goblin messenger bowed and left, Tnaxz called some others from his adopted tribe, Marauder, to discuss what could only end in advancement of the clan he had so recently found himself in. "A lost Dragonarmy item.. Must be important.. Much talk of it" Tnaxz thought to himself. One of his old tribe, now a goblin servant in the Dragonarmy, had overheard some high ranked officers talking furiously over a lost item An item more then one goblin had lost its life over as the officers took out their furry. Scanning around, Tnaxz sent a message to his brethern in the MidenIr and to King Grumm on the wings of magic, this would be a most interesting turn of events. And so they as they had it, all the goblins under their command had been ordered to be on the look out for this particular artifact. Even though they did not know yet what it was, they would find out. Many goblins may be slaves or warriors in the Drago Dragonarmy, but not all were loyal to the Dark Queen. Tnaxz snickered to himself, the Dragon armys must be foolish to think a godless race wouldnt betray their precious queen as long as there are still tribes in the world to live under. Suddenly Tnaxz had a great thought. "Come, Tnaxz ordered to a few nearby goblins to follow him. Time to find this artifact. Without it, the Dragonarmy would surely lose its power and goblins would return to their tribes. and you see the treacherous worm, kill it. Tnaxz had other business he planned to take care of before finding this artifact. Author: Tnaxz Date: Fri Dec 12 00:33:23 2008 Subject name Knife of Dracart, -.- Tnaxz crawled along the outside out Palanthas. He finally learned of the object, the MidenIr goblins had eventually found a man who knew of it and made him talk. "The knife of Dragosomething, foolish goblins. he thought with a sigh. His own tribe would never have been stupid enough to kill the prisoner after only learning the name of the object. Perhaps I should convince a Cave Lord to take residence their, their current leader is stupider then a dwarf, or an elf." He shrugged, he could find a Cave Lord anytime, now now was time to find this knife. Muttering and cursing to himself, he entered Palanthas covered in rags even a goblin would consider filthy, hoping to be mistaken as a gully dwarf. It would never do to have knights stick a sword in his stomach. After a long hour of searching, he found the port. It was not as easy as he thought it would be to find. Mainly because he had got lost in the sewers as he met up with his loyal bodyguard, a troll that was more hideous then the rest. Still he had made it. It had not taken long for him to find a ship, a dark figure in the sewer had readily agreed, after a bit of convincing to pay for his passage aboard a ship, and tell the captain of the unusual passengers. As Tnaxz boarded the ship, the sailors eyed him warily. "YOU!!" Tnaxz screamed. This particular sailor glowed a bright blue. He had the dagger Screaming orders to his troll, the troll and a few quick fireballs from Tnaxz had most of the sailors running for their lives, and the dagger was on the ground. " It doesnt look very good Tnaxz said with a sigh. He liked the looks of his fillet knife better. "Still it must be a powerful weaponBlaegsh, he ordered pointing at his troll grab it" As the troll grabbed it, Tnaxz saw its face twist in rage, a strange power sweep through him. The troll lunged at Tnaxz stabbed him in the chest and knocking him back the plank into the street. Screaming and running in terror from the troll, Tnaxz cast a quick fireball followed by a lightning bolt at the pursuing troll, the troll screamed, its hair caught fire, and the dagger went flying back into a dark alley. The guards soon came and put an end to the troll. Tnaxz continued screaming and running down the streets crying in fear until he ended up in another, dark alleyway. Certain no more crazed trolls or guards could find him, he considered going back to the dagger, but no.. Not sure which alley it went in, someone mighter grabbed it.." Besides, he was afraid of the dagger, as much as he crazed the power he had seen it give the troll, he figured it best not to go mad while in a city of humans. "MidenIr goblins will watch the exits, he said to himself "someone leave soon with dagger." x Good thing magic armor protect me from troll dagger Or had it? He could have sworn the dagger pierced both his magic and metal armorSighing, Tnaxz was just glad the trolls fist must have hit him more then dagger.
