I take a seat facing Balasar and begin to remove the hide from my satchel. It is quite heavy and still dusty from its long stay in the dungeon. I quickly realize my blunder and mentally knock myself for not trying to at least make it presentable to Balasar. I feebly try to knock some of the dust off but it starts to make a mess on the floor.

"I apologize for this. Uhm, as you can see I did obtain the artifact, but I can drop it by the mezzanine for storage if it is causing too much trouble."

"None-the-less, we were successful. However, I must tell you that the dungeon was much more than a simple infestation. We found an altar to their god and a dragon was guarding the artifact. I'm glad we got their in time, as it looked to me that they were preparing to come to the surface... for dubious purposes."
