Anything you could think of, really. Money, jewels, candlesticks and vessels cast in gold. I didn’t think I’d ever see that many riches in my entire life.

[ Once they make it out of the little alley and onto the street proper, Arenvald finds someplace relatively out of the way to set the container. ]

Before I was born, the ruler of my… my homeland of Ala Mhigo was a man by the name of Theodoric. The Mad King, they called him. The King of Ruin. He was paranoid and tyrannical, going so far as to put his own family to the blade for the smallest of slights, real or imagined.

The people rose up and rebelled, and in the end, Theodoric, outnumbered and outmatched, took his own life. In the wake of his death there came the rumor of his hidden treasury. Many set out to find it, but none ever did. Twenty long years later, it remained little more than a story.
