As if this infernal Aalen Bloom wasn't trouble enough, it seems that a
troupe of bandits has absconded with a collection of my precious
artifacts! Thankfully the stores that they made off with have been
enchanted to return to me in time, but should you happen across any of
them, you're free to keep any artifacts you may recover from the corpses
of those ill-mannered rapscallions.

Penned by my hand on the 24th of Variach, in the year 325 MA.
