As you wander around the dwarf mine looking for veins of meat (or at least some meaty veins), a 7-foot dwarven miner comes running up. He falls down on his knees and gasps for breath, then looks up and shouts at you.
"Cave-in! The mine! The... The foreman... he's.... can't breathe! Can't... form complete sentences! Help! Need somebody! Not...just...anybody!"
You follow the dwarf deep down into his halls of stone, where you see a 7-foot dwarf foreman trapped under a huge vein of meat.
You quickly cast a spell that turns the vein of meat into currency-sized cuts and levitates them off the foreman's broken body.
You walk away feeling good about the deed, the meat, and the magic practice.
You gain 10 Mysteriousness. |
![]() | You gain 100 Meat. |
