"Francois, you and Abe have the nastiest job for the first stage of the plot. You'll be leaving in ten days. West of the capital is a large town called Basst. Basst is the central institute for magical learning in all of Timiro. There are literally thousands of students there, either of a philosophical bent or of a magical persuasion. I need that city burned to the ground, with as much of the population as possible to burn with it. The destruction of Basst will herald our advancing to the second stage of the plot."

I knew about Jester's situation, so I wasn't stressing. |

After the groups break, Maximus tracks you both down. "So boys, what're you two plotting for this Herculean task of ours?" |

The elf looks down at Maximus for a moment, pausing in his conversation with the Danzi
"We will know best when we see a map of the city. Right now were are thinking of using fire." |

((Potentially I could scan the map from the book, if one of you lacks access to it. Let me know)).
"Fire is always fun. But it is a coastal city populated with Warlocks. Fire alone possibly won't be enough. Not without a little thinning of the herds, first." Are gnomes even supposed to be this twisted? |

((it's essentially a college university town close enough to the capital for all of the luxuries, and far enough away for all of the college town vices. They probably pass maps of this place out all over the place.))

"Any large enough performance is sure to attract all manner of people, and I imagine a city like that grows tired of the usual books and dull displays. So we give them something spectacular....and if the seeds of our intent appear to be part of the show, so much the better. What better way to burn down a city than make the very people who should save it think that it's all part of the show?" |

So I guess we'll start with the formation of a trading company that specializes in lamp and cooking oils. We'll need some funds to begin importing oil into the town.
Al and I will travel ahead of the caravan to establish our business licences and purchase some warehouse space.
How long do we have to accomplish this? Days, weeks, a month? _________________ Alright, so I fucked her. What of it? -- Dr. Venture |
