Welcome to Torch

The town of Torch has long enjoyed a singular claim to prosperity—a violet flame that burns atop Black Hill in the heart of the town. The flame burned hotter than any normal fire, making it an invaluable resource for the smelting and forging of skymetals. However recently the towns claim to fame has mysteriously been extinguished. Councilor Khonnir Baine, one of Torch’s more powerful wizards decided to investigate the mysterious disappearance and discovered a series of unexplored caverns hidden beneath the Black Hill. After that the town council posted a reward of 4000 gold pieces to who ever relight the flame. A number of expeditions have ventured into the tunnels only one of which has returned. The group that returned was led by Councilor Khonnir Baine himself and he brought back a strange construct from the heart of Black Hill. However his second expedition failed to return and the council has posted another 4000 gold piece reward for his safe return.

Your group has for various reasons decided to join together and have entered town hall to be officially recognized as accepting the bounty. As you enter a Human man greets you he has a mousy look with clothes of a scribe and asks"Are you here about the Bounties? If you are I'll need to take your Name and next of kin for the record. After that I'll take you to Miss Dolga she'll answer any questions you may have about the bounty and what's happening."
