*Posted prominently all around Sanctuary by a dischevelled and hard-faced looking figure with dark hair and features*
I have decided to lead an expedition in an attempt to reach the surface. Mulling over the pieces and fragments of the clues I have found, and of what my somewhat disjointed memory provides me from the sights I have seen, and the words that I have read, I believe that I am adequately (as much as any man) prepared to forge a path and carve a swathe through the underdark as need be, I have seen everything a man can see and I have never been blinded to the way forward, and so you could trust me once with your lives that this vision is nothing short of possibly your one hope - your only hope - from salvation in this dark abyss.
The time of such will be ((AFTER 7P.M. GMT TOMORROW AT SOME POINT, IF YOU CANNOT BE ON FOR A -LONG TIME- (It may take a while) THEN DON'T BOTHER)) tomorrow.
That is, 7P.M. GMT SUNDAY 29TH OCTOBER
All I require from you is your absolute obedience in the pursuit of this, the only noble goal left in all of Sanctuary.
All I require from you is a little trust that this is no hoax, that there is no ulterior motive, that I simply fear that one man alone could never make it all the way up, despite our blind faith in Frederick Bresley
All I require from you is your arms and legs and spells and faith's and the promise that despite what nameless horrors might await us, that you would never think to abandon this attempt, that you would rather die than live a life without light.
There will be no cost, however, I reserve the right to choose those whom I could share my knowledge with. Adventuring forces strange alliances sometimes, however, know this. I will not accept members of the Seekers. They know what they know and I know what I know and never the twain shall meet - and if any man or woman affilated with them comes, they will die sure as fire burns, and may the gods look after their souls. I will take only those whom proffer something more than a good sword, or a good heart. Whom may have known me in a past life, since it feels so long since I walked Sanctuaries walls. I need something extra than spellcasting, since immortality is what awaits, and those who are simply good with a sword or handy at memorising their magics would never be enough to join the nigh insignificant numbers that will have escaped from the underdark from our level.
Are you a man, a woman, or a living legend? Only join me if you believe you are the third, and can convince me of it as well.
