    Hola! I'm new around here and had to share a brief tale of excitement, terror and grand larceny. I apologise for the lack of visual aid in this presentation. It was my first burglary, you understand.

    Life can be pretty dull for a fledgling rogue. My days have been spent standing around practicing my craft, honing my skills. During one such day a man wandered by offering runes to some courtyard. Always one for adventure I asked if I could have a copy. The man gave me one free of charge and I put it in my bank for later.

    Well, days passed. I was speaking with my new friend BlackEye about the rune and he suggested we check it out. Now I'm not very skilled, but sometimes audacity and boldness can make up for a lack of raw talent. We set out to see if this was one of those times.

    BlackEye cast a gate from the rune and sure enough we found ourselves in a courtyard of a small fortress. The owner of the fortress seemed to be having a small gathering as there were three gentlemen inside the keep. BlackEye stayed in the shadow and made his way to the room where the gentles were. Suddenly: nothing happened. The gentlemen stood there, unaware of his presence. I can only presume they were all meditating, some sort of "cold yoga" or something, I guess. So serene they were, like monks. Emboldened, I walked into the room. We began looking through some unsecured chests.

    What luck! We found many reagents, ingots, potions, leather. Just the kind of thing a budding young rogue could use to accelerate his rise to competency!f

    It was not easy, nor was it quick, but we managed to move the goods to a safe warehouse and then later to a safe deposit box at First Sosaria Exchange and Securities. All told we got somewhere between 100k-200k worth of useful resources.

    In gratitude, we left a note thanking the lord of the manor for his donation to the urchins.

    Vaya con el botín,
    Tuco

    No, we were not quick. But still very effective. Well done, Mr. Ramirez.

    It couldn't have happened without you, mang!

    PS. I broke off some nightshade for the guy who gave me the rune. Gotta do the right thing!
