#47353, "Gedunthos's Role Chapter 3"
|
RoleChapter 3 Regarding the Shadow King's Surname Added Thu Jun 6 12:25:40 2013 at level 50:Though there are, as previously mentioned, too many tales of criminal enterprise, subterfuge, and other such cloak and dagger affairs to list even before the thief Gedunthos sought out his current adventuring path, this one bears some merit as it is a name he keeps to this day, in many ways.
As has often been the case, he got himself into an unusual position of influence for one of his admittedly handsome lineage, this time in a Drow house. Initially, it was as a liaison for the Duergar of Aaran'Gird for the purposes of easy exchange of the rare metals of the Underdark for their respective war-making endeavors. After a time, for reasons unknown to the thief, the Matron of the house took an interest in him as a spy on other houses of the underdark, something indeed to be handled with kid gloves so as not to create war openly.
The task given was vague to the point of frustration for most, but during his meeting with the Matron herself, a strange but necessary precaution of the eyes-only nature of the mission, he seemed to draw knowledge from what was not spoken as much as what was. Reconnaissance of both the grounds of the house with the intent of finding secret entrances and escapes, as well as to discover if in fact the final place of one of the Matron's high priestesses was indeed another house, or a sudden mysterious death in the nearby area as the evidence had seemed to suggest.
During the course of his investigation, he actually infiltrated the house in question in the same respect as he had the first house. To only a nigh omniscient observer would it be clear that he was not playing both sides against the other during this entire endeavor. Not only did he facilitate further trade between Duergar and Drow houses with the intent of lining his own pockets and bolstering his reputation, but he was drawn into some of the circles within the house which were largely of an 'inner' nature. Volumes could be written on the sorcery alone drawn from their most secret libraries, though the intelligence sought after relating to the priestess was sort of a mix of a wash and success. She had died mysteriously, but it was because after having faked her death to the first house, she was discovered in torture to be playing both sides. In truth, the torturer noted, the admission seemed to come only as a means to alleviate the torture, and as is often the case the intel gained from said torment was, upon the reaping of her soul, found to be inaccurate. Being Drow, they of course had no problem with her being dead despite this fact. One less priestess on the other side, merely at the cost of not having one added to their ranks.
(The story is continued in the next chapter)
