Labyrinth and Loyalties
Les Crepe is a large city in the northern region, one of the largest merchant cities. The market of Les Crepe which is open for three days starting the first Sunday of every month, is said to have the variety of all of Tulucia. From potions, armor, weapons, animals, to slaves; everyone finds something desirable in the market.
Les Crepe is a main post for the Brotherhood of Adtaan. The Brotherhood takes care of all of the city's security, safety, and legal needs. There are strict laws in Les Crepe; but giving the merchant and heavy travel nature of the city, the majority of the civilians agree it is needed. There is no magic to be practiced in the city limits. If caught the offense is punishable by death or slavery. Public intoxication in the streets is also against the law. Les Crepe's inner city limits are filled with wealthy travelers and civilians and it is thought that if they drink at the inn they can pay to stay at the inn. Slavery is allowed in Les Crepe; due to the religious beliefs of Adtaan followers and the Brotherhood slavery makes sense to them. Those who cannot pay or are stationed as having not are seen to have angered the Gods and are therefore punished with just cause.
Even with the tight security and large force in the city, Les Crepe is plagued with fear and rumors. Young and beautiful women kidnapped in the depths of the night. Most of them nobility or of some sort of valuable profession or family connection in the region. Rumors told of Neanderthals kidnapping the women at night and taking them to a labyrinth guarded by a fierce Minotaur. The city of Les Crepe could not allow the rumors to go unchecked. A scouting group of fifteen soldiers went into the mountains to the west in search of the Labyrinth, none returned.
One foggy morning a guard spotted an older woman laying in the path before the market square outside the city. The woman was identified as Donalda, daughter of the Gentleman's Bussle store owner. The Gentleman's Bussle is the most reputable and finest general store in Les Crepe. Donalda, a beautiful maiden, age 19, had been reported missing by her father three months before. Her appearance had changed, still beautiful, her hair was silver, and her beautiful clear light skin had aged many years. Donalda remembered nothing of how she became to this appearance or how she escaped. She knew there were many curves and turns and estimated that she had been on the run for over a week. Donalda knew she had came from the north west mountains.
With this information the Brotherhood of Adtaan's council member in Les Crepe; Father Willship and the Magistrate of Les Crepe (name) decided to hire adventurers to try to find the rest of the women. The magistrate's only daughter Lafunda had been taken two weeks prior to the discovery of Donalda. Offering a large sum of money, full service at the high class tavern and Inn; the Pissed of Princess, and any previsions needed many adventures came to inquire on the adventure. Only a handful accepted; Alie Butcher, a fighter and worshiper of Adtaan, Bruce the specialist, Magenta a lady from the west with wild red hair, and the most peculiar and capable halfling; Harold Undersack.
