  The office is small and cramped.  Spilled bottles of ink and crumpled
parchment litter the stone floor.  Piles of parchment under crystal
paperweights are on the desk.  A large corkboard on the wall behind the desk
is covered with manuscripts that could be used in the future.  The room
seems lifeless and devoid of any human feel.

First question: Adventurers are infamous for their bloodthirsty ways, particularly when it comes to potential non-Adventurer competitors. Purely hypothetically, if you killed someone with a bad reputation, like say Vyst or Yourban, would you be doing so out of the goodness of your heart, or for power? Please provide your answer directly into the recording device.
