The Mask Riddle
The Mask Riddle
To start here, you need the start quest - The Letter -
As you enter the room, you immediately get a whiff of old dusty leather infiltrating your nostrils. Darkness surrounds the room making it difficult to see. But, in the back of the room you are able to make out several people staring back at you. When your eyes are able to adjust, you notice they're masks made up of faces...
You feel a small gust of wind blow past your ear. A faint whisper is heard...
->Listen
| We are the gang who you should be careful of.
We come after the dagger disguised as a dove. Your open wound in poo, Seek a healer who might help you. |
To the left, eyes of hot brimstone,
My mother's fury rages like no one. To the right, his gaze, a cold demean, My father's expression, a peaceful serene. Fury and peace, loves sacred oath, Who am I, but daughter of both? |
Seek it with those soaring high,
What's around you in the vast sky? Search in the peacock, proud and vain, Though less prominent in the rain. Find it while hearing the Sirens' tune. What is the name of this calming, but deadly hue? |
|
| Red Violett Green Blue | Red Violett Green Blue | Red Violett Green Blue |
->Hm...
As you lift the mask up, the face feels like real skin, but as you feel the mask's inner layer, it feels like soft leather.
This might be the mask you were meant to pick up.
->Ew...
Back to Tavia
Tavia has her head resting on the counter, spinning a single shard, and yawning. As soon as she looks at you from the the corner of her eye, she immediately sits up, adjusts her posture, and beams a smile at you.
''Hey, welcome back! Did you get what I've asked for?''
->Give Mask
Tavia takes the mask and looks it over. She rotates it in her hand, giving you one small nod.
''Thanks.'' She says as she snaps her fingers. In an instant, the hand that's inside the mask begins to emit a yellow glow from her palm. After two seconds, the mask itself begins to glow, changing shape and form before returning back to its prior state.
->Continue
The gecko sets it down on the counter and slides it towards you.
''Congratulations, Corrupted Hull! I welcome you to the Thieves Guild. This is a Shadow Veil. Wear this and any person who looks at you will not be able to tell it's you. Hell, anyone who tries to remove it at all will fail... at least while you're awake.''
''You now have access to my shop, and may accept any jobs that are available.''
->Sweet!
