The story begins as I am exploring the lands. My character is only 6 days old, and he is trying to gain in the skill of animal taming. Dagger Isle proved to have too many other characters working their taming, and too few animals to be tamed. I decided to take my char on journey encompassing most of the lands of Britannia in search of wild animals to be tamed. Eventually, my path crossed a rather imposing Keep. I could see and hear that a nightmare was roaming inside of it.
For reasons unknown to me, maybe my spirit for adventure, I took the initiative and entered the building. What I saw was an enormous accumulation of wealth, and not a single being around to claim ownership or protect their belongings!... What opportunity! Could it be that Fortune has blessed me this day?! I continued to explore the Keep, only to find myself able to possess ever greater and greater amounts of treasure for the taking!! Once the realization dawned, the adrenaline began to flow within me. I had not known that surge of power for quite a many year. It is addicting. I began to take only what I desired, and not everything that was not properly locked down or secured.
The person in control of this Keep didn't bother to lock the front door! A drunken fool, or perhaps overconfident in his belief that the dreaded Nightmare would ward off any intruders? Either way, that was mistake number one! However, not only was I able to gain access to the Keep, many of his treasures were just laying about on the floor! Mistake number two for him, those items could have been locked down, behind security walls, or possibly within secured chests! Yet alas, woe be upon him!
The highlights of his treasures, now my own, are pictured below. I am most pleased with the amount of bulk cloth. My basic math skills suggest that I obtained the equivalent of 199,000 pieces of cloth. While it shall be a daunting task to accomplish, 199,000 pieces of cloth can be sewed into roughly 25,000 fancy shirts. Those shirts can then be sold at roughly 30 gold coins each, grossing over 740,000 gold coins worth of cloth by itself! Yes, Fortune did indeed show me favor this day.
