It had been a long wait as the several heroes were summoned but finally a small select few were lead to the library to speak with the kings advisor and court magician Marlos. Thye three Heroes had been led away discreetly by way of the king lining up all applicants and having them enter his chambers one at a time and then keeping ones he approved and sending the others on their way. Upon arriving to the library the small party was greeted by Marols a young man with short dusty brown hair and green eyes. He wore robes similar to a quire boy but imbued with deep red and purples as he worked sorting several books before finally acknowledging them."oh forgive me I was just putting up the last record tomes for today's events..you as you all most likely know have been chosen by his majesty ahead of the others as the most likely to succeed in finding the person we believe can heal the princess.
IHave you map right here."he says and lays out a piece of parchment quickly marking two areas."this is the main road if you pass up the salvage tavern and take the left fork in the road as you reach the outer territories you will reach a small winding path fallow it and keep going don't stop for anything until you've reached the scarecrow fields….it should be safe as long as you follow the path under no circumstances should you leave it until you reach this area."he says circling the field carefully on the map. Past that area the map was completely blank and the warriors probably knew why because it was the dark forest the only unmapped area in the whole regain. Mainly because the trees tended to uproot themselves and scholars and map makers alike never entered the forest without vanishing.
"I'm afraid besides giving you protective charms there's not much more I can do for you the court magician died last year and I am only his apprentice all I know is that the person you seek is past the boiling swamps and isn't very friendly.
He says gulping a little before he straitens his robes .digging into one of his pockets he lays out a bag of lovely vcut gems worth more than the mans weight if gold."this is for them when you find them…all I have is a name and its Marwins.."he says a little nervously and licks his lips." if you find them bring them back with you immediately or at least try and strike a deal remember stick to the path until you reach the fields..any other way into the forest is a death trap..there are horses and gear awaiting you in the court yard you best be moving the king sends the others out first thing in the morning and I dought they will deal well with knowing the competition is ahead of them." he states knowing the hundred or so warriors cut throats and magicians would xo anything for half a kingdom not to mention the gold the king had offered. Rolling up the map he stuffs it into a map case for them and lays it aside with a book bound in leather with gold leaf print that read. "a practical guide to surviving an enchanted forest."
