Universe:Journals (The Mageseeker)/Note from Griese
Kover said there's gold to be made in those ruins in the woods... ancient relics from the Rune Wars. Told me right in the middle of supper. Wasn't fully listening, but I heard what was important: there's easy money to be made!
I said I'd go out there, and you know what the old man did? He laughed at me, thought it was a really funny joke. Said I don't have the skills. Not true though, I'm quite good with numbers. He reckoned that's not the kind a skill that's helpful out there... guess he was thinking anyone goin out there needs to be able to fight.
So I took what little coin I had and hired two fellas. Tough and strong, NOT as good with numbers... which guarantees that I get a bigger cut of whatever we bring back!
See, I ain't empty in the head, even if Kover thinks I am!
