A famous thief had stolen the crown jewel of the kingdom of Magnolia. Enraged, the king ordered his army to find and apprehend the thief but without success. Out of option, the king announced that whoever catch the thief and return the crown jewel...

...will be honored as the kingdom's hero! Not only that, but that person will also be given a large amount of gold and a territory. The news thunder throughout the kingdom, and even mercenaries from another land came to try their luck. Among them..

...the traveling bard Thomas. When the news of the rewards reached Thomas, the bard quickly traveled towards Magnolia. But unlike the adventurers and mercenaries, Thomas didn't came for the reward, instead he went to Magnolia to witness the event.

Inside an Inn, Thomas was chatting with a barmaid when suddenly, a grim looking person entered. The person in question looked around and went to a table with four people, he then draw his sword! Everyone looked nervously at him. Suddenly, he...

...points to Thomas and said, "I want you to be part of my party. Everyone knows a good group needs a bard. When we succeed, we shall share the spoils!" He introduced himself as Osman, a paladin of The Order.

One by one the group introduced themselves. Athena is a priestess from the holy kingdom of Fronterra. Luke is a knight from Greevis. Stein the thief hails from Meetis. Then there's Saori from the mysterious east continent. She calls herself a "ninja"

"By the way do you know about the Rats?" Osman suddenly asked. " I've heard of them. They're a secretive group that sells information," answered Thomas. "Indeed. Stein here us acquainted with a few of them," said Osman while pointing at Stein.

"We'll go there right now, wanna come with us?" Asked Osman. Thomas agreed without hesitation, he too is curious about the so called "rats". Stein then took them to a house. He then knocked the door using certain rhythms. Before long the door opened.

...and a bear-like middle age man appeared. "You're earlier than expected," the man said. "We got a new member and I'm taking him on a tour," answered Stein, smirking. "...do you think we're a travel agency?" The man said annoyed. Stein, simply...

Stein simply, nods at the bear-like man to the man's annoyance and led the group inside. There, a person in gray cloak led them to a secret there where they walk for god now how long. After the long hike, they finally saw a light, passing the tunnel

To the party's surprise, they arrived at a black market; specifically, it was ran by the drows. Thomas knew in his mind that this is was not normal as the marketers were far from their homeland.

"Drows? What are they doing here?" Thomas asked. "Yeah, aren't they a bit too far from home?" Agreed Athena. "Far? More like they're from the other side of the continent!" Luke jeered. "Okay, enough with that," Osman chastised. The information is...

"How curios!" Thomas said? "What's curios?" Athena asked. "These drows, none of them are of pure blood," Thomas answered. "Impressive! You actually noticed," said Stein impressed. "I've been to Halmara before," said Thomas. "Really?" Everyone gasped.

With questions in his minds, Thomas cannot help but observe the drows. Sensing his curiosity, Stein tell Thomas that drows doesn't like to be observed. To avoid potential troubles, he tells his groupmate not to be too curios.

Seeing the drows, Thomas notices the strange glint in Saori's eyes. "What's wrong with her?" Thomas asked Athena who is nearby. "Well, she's a ninja and she's feeling a bit competitive," she answered. Drows are known for assasination and espionage...

"Can these drows be trusted?" Athena asked, clearly not comfortable with the drows. "Relax, most of them might be assassins but no one can beat them in gathering informations," said Stein. Thomas notices Athena's discomfort and said a few words to...

"Never expect to see drows here," said Thomas. "Drows are the best assassins and information gatherer, but due to their hate of the surface, they could only operate underground" Stein answered. Thomas nods in understanding, and went along the others.

"Can we really find the information we needed here?" Osman asked Stein. "Don't worry we should find thr clue we needed here," answered Stein. He then walks towards a drow with tattoos on his face. "Hey Ftill, how are you been?" Stein greets the drow.
