A message pinned to the door of Grey Rose Castle

Post by Dinendal Narmolanya »

I would like to inform the occupants of Grey Rose castle that i have witnessed a man blatantly proclaiming to have stolen books from your libraries and was selling them to those foolish enough to humor him. The mans description is as follows :((2366*****))

I passed by Rose castle today on my journeys.

I did not see anyone selling books. Infact, I only laid my eyes upon a Human looking for his equipment he lost when he was killed by a pack of thieves. - I also passed a group of elves, but they seemed very friendly. This all took place around 2 hours ago.

When did this occur?

Why would a thief want to stand around all day? It can be assumed that he did something called 'Going somewhere else'.

To observe. That was the basic skill of a rogue, one the Nomad knew pretty well. He did observe the man back then, back when he didn't even had this bold idea. Now, all he had in hands to help him were merely old letters and documents with his handwritting. But the Nomad was almost sure that an answer to this fact with that signature would solve half of the problem - not that is was his intention, of course.
He copied the handwritting style and studied the signature some more time, trying it some times before on another paper, as exercise. He even spent some time with the trolls in the forest, only watching them, hidden, but writing in their presence. Copying a mad man's letter was certainly a good way to test his skills.
When the letter was done, he pinned it to the wall:


Selling books from the Gray Rose Library!
Praise the Magenta Troll!

~Ceigan Zain Ibatha
Master Tree Remover
Teacher of Tree Removing
Novice Chaos Priest
Follower of the Prancing Magenta Troll of Madness
Leader of the Esteemed Followers of the Prancing Magenta Troll of Madness Group


And as simple addition - a token of a professional's care, because above anything the Nomad was still a romantic - he dropped an old and rather dirt sock near the town wall as he left, making sure, as always, he wasn't been watched.

Thank you for the informations.

I should take a look at our bookshelves, but currently i do not miss any books of our libary.

Propably i know who is the man. It is a human? If yes, he could be Ceigan, a very confused man.

Let tell him whatever he want as long as it is not against general laws. He is no real danger. But maybe a monastery or hospital should overtake him, so that he is under control.

I was there with Dinendal, and it was indeed a human. I warned him about selling stollen goods, though he didn't seem too worried. You can probably find him advertising your books in Eliza's shop.
