Prologue 1
Agent
Lance
WARNING: This quest is frequently features excessive use of explicit language. Viewer discretion is advised?
The year is XX52. An evil necromancer has risen up to threaten the lands of Avarisse. That was the idea, anyway, until a brave hero and his four companions rose up to defeat this vile opponent and save the Kingdom. That was 15 years ago, and since then the hero has reigned as a benevolent ruler of the kingdom capital: Cogsburg. That story has no relevance to what will transpire today.
For 14 years, the land was peaceful and everyone could live freely and happily. That was, until a new threat bared its fanged and descended on the world with plans to take over as rulers of the land; a shadow group led by none other than a vicious mage and his army of spies and mages. However, they were thwarted by the daughter of the previous hero. Again, this story has nothing to do with today, but it is nice to tell kids about.
Now... nothing has happened, yet. Anyways, let's talk about something else. The capital of Cogsburg is in the South of the donut shaped continent of Avarisse. The biggest city; Sohnelbuy, is in the North, which obviously makes it superior. This is where the legendary Sohnelbuy Detective Agency is housed! Yes, we are detectives in this brave new world, as criminals and thieves have become more cunning since recent day, as is expected of a growing city. Even the contraption known as the "flintlock", which has been banned from civilian use, has found its way into the hands of criminals, and they must be tracked down and stopped!
"Are you done yet?"
"Uhh. I guess, do you need something?"
"Tell the two to get back to the office. I've got a new assignment for them."

XX67, Sohnelbuy
A man wearing a thick, leather coat walked down a dark alleyway, making sure to keep a low profile as he looked for his target. Then he stopped, staying out of the sunlight that illuminated the nearby corridor.
Some people were going to be meeting here; the local detective was to isolate and capture the illegal weapons dealer, and then... wing it.
He waited. One, two, four minutes, but at last his quarry appeared. Two men approached the area, with one of them just looking like all of their brainpower was exhausted for muscle mass. They were met by a man in a longcoat and fancy hat, carrying a large bag with him.
"So, I assume you've got the guns in there?" The first man asked.
The dealer chuckled. "Of course I do," he said, highlighting his high, sleazy voice. "why would I come here if I didn't?" He then opened his bag for the buyer to look in, who inspected the contents of it for a few seconds before nodding.
"How much for em all?"
"I told you this yesterday, 300 gold pieces.
"I wasn't sure if you were joking or if that was the actual price. If all these are worth 300, then I want to know that i'm getting my money's worth."
This might take a while, though now might be a good time to act, or plan out something for this. That burly man might be a problem though.
The detective reassessed his equipment: A silver-plated flintlock, a short sword, and a magical communication crystal.
Wait for the trade to finish, then follow the dealer.
Threaten everyone with your pistol.
Shoot the big man.
Actually... (Write-in, do something else)
