Rat Problem
“Something’s in the cellar. It’s eating my stock. I don’t care what it is. I care that it stops.”
Summary
Clear out whatever is living in the cellar beneath The Drunken Stoat tavern. The owner wants it gone by morning.
Quest Giver
The barkeep of The Drunken Stoat, a tavern in Solen. Posted through the Adventurer’s Guild board as an F-Rank contract.
Details
The Drunken Stoat has been losing inventory. Barrels gnawed through. Grain sacks torn open. Something moved in downstairs, and the barkeep has neither the patience nor the desire to find out what.
The cellar is cramped, dark, and full of barrels. Whatever is down there has had time to settle in.
Reward
- 15 gp from the tavern owner
- One barrel of ale “on the house”
