Quest Plumb the Lost Caverns of Achaia
A mage staying at the Circle K Inn gives his name as Delk Whitewand. He claims that the Lost Caverns of Achaia have been discovered and that he will provide magical support and financing to those willing to risk life and limb to plumb its long-lost secrets.
Delk will pay a group of four to ten individuals ten gold daily for up to six months to delve the Lost Caverns (assuming he is correct in thinking he has found the entrance). He is happy to cede any found treasure to those risking themselves to recover them, with the exception that he be given any scrolls and tomes found.
"I can provide a few useful potions to get you started, and I can have a few more ready for you a couple weeks from now..."
Delk will pay an initial sum of 100 gold as a good faith token and to provide currency for needed exploration supplies.
