December 16, 2014 Treasure & Experience

Four dead guards are here, each wearing the colors of the Lord of Brindol (blue and white surcoats, with a golden lion over the chest). They are dressed in chain shirts and carried longswords and longbows.
A leather satchel lying near a dead guard close to the chests contains a key to the chests and a letter. The letter is addressed to Captain Ervath Helmbreaker of the Shining Axe Company, Hamerfist Holds. It is a mercenary contract signed by Lord Jarmaath of Brindol, witch hires the Shining Axes for the defense of the city; it refers to the 6,000gp payment for the company's services. According to the letter, the Shining Axes - a skilled company of axe-wielding dwarves almost two hundred strong - are to set for Brindol at once on receipt of payment.
