One of the Warriors has fallen in love with a woman of this Provincial Capital, but she is not a happy lady. He pledges to deal with whatever saddens her- and slightly to his dismay, she accepts his offer.
In a small tavern, she outlines what he (and his companions) must do."Our Provincial Capital was once the holder of a valuable ancient artefact. However, an old acquaintance of yours stole it a short time ago, for some reason of his own, and is trying to evade justice by hiding. Track him down and recover the item."
The warriors must hurry to reach the enemy before it is too late.
