Introduction
A city known simply as Krystallem, was starting to get its first rays of the sun as the light hit it's white walls that glimmered and sparkled. The story of Krystallem is simply one of many ,but today we only follow one that will begin very shortly. The city got it's name from the way it was designed, it was a gift from the dwarves to the many races that reside within it. The dwarves put bits of crystal and diamond into its make giving it a beautiful shine that invited people to it. The cinder blocks were all neatly crafted with the best artisans the world have known. The elves may be masters in song writing and silk ,but the dwarves the were masters of the stone work and forging metal to their liking manipulating it. They put their heart and their soul into the city ,but to much of the peoples surprise the dwarves did not stay afterwards. "It's hard getting used to staying above ground....." They had said. A few had indeed stayed ,but not a whole lot. They loved the forges of their mountains too much to live in a city. The people there were left to make into what they saw fit. They made homes, taverns, and stores for their market place. They even out of the request of the mages guild built a building for them there and a church. The church itself was special with many rooms giving freedoms to the many religions. This story will start right here of course, right in the heart of the church's corridors and halls.
The Church of the Gods had opened its doors at its usual time for the people to come inside. Many different shapes and colors could be seen, mostly humans, orcs, half-elves, and many others. They still had a bit of hatred towards some races but they were open to most. The ones they were still getting used to where drow. There was still much hatred towards them due to their races evil deeds. A the head Mage of Krystallem's branch came in with the crowd. He stopped at the great cross towards the other end of the chamber to pray at its alter. Afterwards, he was approached by a tall blond man encased in silver armor. A cross designed into his left breast plate was most intriguing sense it was designed with wings sprouting from it. He nodded to the man. "Ishmael, was it?..." He recalled and Ishmael responded with a nod of his own. The Mage grinned, "I think I found the location of the chalice per the high priest's request." He said. Ishmael's eyes light up and he saw that the Mage had a satchel with scrolls almost falling of it. Ishmael looked to the people within to make sure they were not to interested in their conversation. He then looked back at him and gestured to him, "Come with me Hienrich, Father Daniel will like to hear your findings." He said. Hienrich nodded to Ishmael and followed him out of chamber and into a hallway passing many priests by as they made it to Daniel's private chambers. Ishmael raised his hand to signal for Hienrich to stop. He then used the same hand to knock on the door.
"Come in Ishmael, I have been expecting this visit." They heard from within and Ishmael turned the latch and pushed as they entered. They found Daniel at his desk with several letters on it. He was in the process of applying the churches seal on the back of them when they entered. Hienrich almost galloped to the desk pulling up a chair and placed his satchel on it and picking out a scroll. "After several hours of scrying and research me and a handful of my colleagues finally found its resting place. The Chalice of Silence has been found!" He said rather excitedly as he showed the scroll to Daniel. Daniel took it and unrolled it and his hands began to shake. What he saw was a sketch of a door way. This door had a holy symbol on it which likely was the source of the seal placed on it. It was a powerful seal that could only be for the protection of the chalice. He lowered it and saw Hienrich unrolling another one and showing it to them. It had a detailed sketch of the great chalice sitting on a pedistal. A tear rolled down his cheek as he smiled. "You have found it,... Alright Mage your next task for me will be to send these letters to those who will help you on the quest. Due to my age I will not go with you. Ishmael will act in my stead." Hienrich nodded and bowed to Daniel. "You will not be disappointed in my skills, high priest Daniel." He said as he tossed the letters into the satchel. He then left them alone as he went to proceed with the second step of his mission. The letters would be sent to the people hand picked for this quest. The he would lead. He would even get to work with the legendary Ishmael himself.
