Three figures in tattered white robes approach from the far end of the cell, recognizable as mystics only from the crooked runes stitched into their hems. The man in the center of the three speaks first. "Greetings, citizen of Vhyr. I am Nathos, the keeper of this sanctuary. Who are you?"
By way of explanation, you produce the scroll that Belairon gave you, and hand it to the mystic. The keeper looks back and forth between you and the writing, linking the man he is reading about with the one who stands before him. Finally, he puts the scroll away and dismisses the nomad rider.
Nathos waits for him to leave before speaking. "I know why Cabryx has summoned you, Exile of Agossa!" he proclaims. "This scroll describes your dreams of a robed attacker, wielding magic."
"The same robe worn by the traders in this very camp," you point out.
"Your enemy is likely one of them," Nathos says. "Long have we suspected the traders of harnessing forbidden powers."
