<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "A friend of mine told me about this great new device that lets you know when someone's at your door. You see, it rings this bell, that way, if you're in the basement... well... yes, I suppose you could knock. But, this thing is nice and loud and you could hear it even if you're in a mansion and... yes, fine I suppose you could knock loudly and holler. And you could always just hop through a window and let yourself in."</font><br>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "After my shift I'm going to head over to Celcynd in Rithwic to turn in my gold stamped letters--I hear the Explorer Society is issuing new armor and weapons these days."</font><br>

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "I have a cousin who works in the High Queen's castle. She told me that Elysa awoke and seemed like a new person. She said that she overheard Elysa speaking with Asheron, and that she told Asheron that she didn't need him anymore. What can all this mean?"</font><br>


<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "Last night this strange person walked up to me and handed me some sort of recruitment pamphlet. It was right, I do feel unappreciated."</font><br>

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "My brother's friend's sister's boyfriend's father said there was some commotion out on Aphus Lassel a few days ago. The whole town, if you can call it that, was in an uproar over something about a sacrifice."</font><br>

====Section 1====
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "Royal Guards in Lytelthorpe are looking for individuals to help in divine secrets that lie in deep caverns that stretch to the sea.
