(TFT) Branya 8, One hundred terrible monsters

["David Michael Grouchy II" <david_michael_grouchy_ii@hotmail.com>]

    "Who isn't watching the show of light"
    A bolt of lightning strikes the back of an ink quill.
    "The map makers are designing the future"
    A wrinkled old hand drawing out a path through woods.

    The team has alienated almost everyone.  They don't get job offers like 
before.  There is only one type of patron left for them.  Reclusive wizards. 
 With their own obscure agendas.  One wealthy wizard hires them for a 
mission of extermination.
    He gives them a blood stained map to a monster factory.  An underground 
factory of horrors.  A rival wizard is running the place.  The patron wants 
everything in the factory killed.  The team gets it all.  Anything they 
find.  All the equipment.  Even the extensive complex of the factory itself. 
 They just have to kill everything in it.
    The team sloggs through the tunnels with mechanical precision.  Every 
creature they encounter is quickly dispatched.  One at a time, teams of ten, 
it doesn't matter.  The well seasoned team carves its way like a knife 
through butter.  They kill everthing.
    They get to the last room.  A control/observation room of some kind.  
There is a guy in dark robes with stars all over them.
    He immediately says "I didn't do it.  I was framed.  You got the wrong 
guy."  The team stops and looks at him kind of funny.  "I'm just a scribe.  
I was hired to do some translations.  When I figured out what the boss was 
up to I confronted him.  The next thing I knew I was trapped down here 
sorounded by a hundred terrible monsters.  Wearing these spiffy looking 
wizard's robes."  He looks around desparately.  "Thank goodness you're here. 
 Now maybe I can get out of this place."
    The team hesitates, but they don't seem convinced.  But when the guy 
shows them where the treasure is hidden they get caught up in counting the 
loot and dividing the spoils.  By the time they're done they don't even 
notice the scribe is gone.  No where to be seen.
