The Found Arcana - Chapter 10, X marks the spot Options

<<Monday Morning - March 20, 2079 - Seattle>>

The move had been successful and the first week had gone in a blur. The first HOA-meeting had turned out not as bad as could be expected: Sunday evening with lots of soycaf and fresh donuts, the actual meeting had been good natured and more of a socializing event. There had been two somewhat lenghty speeches from the president, who obviously loved to hear himself talk, as well as from the minute keeper who just read out the minutes of the previous meeting in its entirety, never stopping to think if all this information was actually relevant.

But at least they had been welcoming Bobby had attended with AM and kept his mouth shut most of the time, so that it was left to the elf to leave a favorable impression
(One CHA+Ettiquette role please)

Once they were back, Bobby gave his goodbyes to the team: He was setting up his third initiation with one of the nine paths to enlightenment - Satori, which meant spending excessive amounts of time in meditation and hardly leaving his room.

Around 0900h the official SIS matrix page received a message, alerting AM.

The message read:

<<Dear Sir or Madam,

Your agency comes highly recommended and I would like to hire you for a special task: A very valuable artifact was taken from me - likely by my own son.

I ask you to find both and bring at least the artifact back to me. If you can convince my son to come as well, or at least talk to me via commlink, I'm prepared to offer you a bonus.

For details, I'd prefer a face to face meeting, this afternoon at 1500h, if you can manage. 1918 8th Ave #3300, Seattle.

With kind regards
