Summary

Shay Cutter

Saphirax was rumored to have a hoard of ancient artifacts from empires thousands of years old. Thanin has found a way into the Duergar tunnels in his search for the dragon's trove. Zhentarim spies have informed me that the Duergar were fighting back, but I have lost contact with my contacts now.

What Thanin plans to do with these treasures is anyone's guess, but we can't let them fall into the hands of the cult. Stop them from collapsing the Duergar tunnels -- the Duergar will slow them down -- and see if you can find the the Zhentarim agents. If you manage to rescue some artifacts, we should be able to find buyers for them, and so continue to fund our operations against the Cult of the Dragon.

Most importantly, find Thanin and stop the cult from plundering the dragon's hoard.

Excellent work! This will surely set back their efforts, but I would not be surprised if they continue trying to dig up more tales from the dead.
