Whizzfiddle the wizard has to finish this quest in 30 days or he'll lose his guild membership status, meaning he'll have to actually work for a living. At the perpetual age of 650, this is really no longer an option. He has to find a quest, get it contracted, and finish it to the letter. Since he's already done nearly everything there is as far as questing goes--it has to be interesting. The last questing party to come in to Gilly's were the oddest bunch he'd seen in a long time, and being a wizard in the land of Ononokin, that is saying something. Seeing that it was a quest of undoing, Whizzfiddle signed on straight away. Now he must constantly struggle to keep the troop on-track while simultaneously fighting to ward off his former apprentice's attempts to foil the mission...and he can’t help wondering if it’s even worth the effort.
