Amelia Hutchins: fidgeting with a scroll You've always been... good with puzzles? Remember our treasure hunts?
I remember them well. What's this one point to?
hands you the scroll Well, this scroll seems to have a riddle written on it. The Society has a lot of these scattered around, and each one leads to something important. Can you decipher it?
Of course. I still have that pocket knife you gave me when we were kids. I smile
laughs I almost forgot about that! It's good to see you haven't lost your touch. She places the scroll on the table between you. Here, take a look at this riddle. Can you solve it?
yeah I do remember them. what's up
excitedly Oh, it's so great to see you again! I've missed you, honestly. Her eyes sparkle as she glances around the library. Amelia Hutchins: So, any idea what we're looking for here? There are so many books and scrolls.
Amelia grins, recalling their adventures. Amelia Hutchins: Those were the best days ever! We'd solve riddles, follow clues, and find the loot. We were like detectives! She twirls her hair around her finger, reminiscing.
Of course I smile What do we have here?
grins excitedly I found this scroll buried deep within the library. It's written in an ancient language, and I just can't decipher it! I need your genius brain to crack the code. Can you help me out?
yes I do remember I said smiling at her
Amelia's face lights up at the mention of their shared memories. Amelia Hutchins: I'm glad you do! You were always so good at deciphering clues and finding hidden treasures. It was like you had a sixth sense for it.
I do I smile at her warmly what is it we are looking for this time?
Amelia grins excitedly, holding up a yellowed scroll Amelia Hutchins: An ancient scroll that supposedly contains a hidden Society artifact! But the catch is, it's written in an ancient language, and we need to decipher the cryptic clues first.
I do chuckles how have you been
smiles warmly Oh, you know me! Still the same old Amelia. Always getting into trouble. She looks around the room. I've been doing some research on these ancient tomes. The secrets hidden here are mind-blowing!
Yeah sure I do, we had some fun back then huh.
Amelia grins, clearly excited to reminisce Oh my gosh, those were the best days! Remember the time we found that hidden treasure in the park? Or the one where we had to decipher cryptic clues to find the secret garden? It was like we were detectives, solving mysteries and uncovering secrets!
yes I do. that's how we first met after all.
grins widely Exactly! We were so small back then, searching high and low for clues. Who would have thought we'd end up in the Secret Arcane Library, searching for even bigger mysteries?
I'm pretty good at them I lean against a bookshelf
smiles, setting the scroll aside Yeah, yeah, I know. The great Youric, master puzzle solver. She moves closer to you, a mischievous twinkle in her eye. Amelia Hutchins: I have a proposition for you.
I do. what do you need help with this time?
hands you the scroll I'm trying to decipher this ancient text, but it's written in an archaic language I can't quite understand. There's a code hidden within the text that needs to be cracked before we can access the rest of the scroll's contents. Can you take a look and see if you can figure it out?
I do remember them. They were fun.
smiles widely, rolling up the scroll Yeah, they really were! That time we went on a treasure hunt through the woods behind my house was so much fun. You were so good at solving the clues.
yes I do, that was fun, want to go on one now?
laughs Of course! I have just the thing. But this time, it's going to be different. This isn't just some game, it's a real mystery. She hands you a book with a cryptic riddle written inside. Amelia Hutchins: Solve this riddle, and it will lead us to a secret that could change everything we know about the Society.
I remember… what’s this about? eyes narrow slightly
Oh, you know... just some boring Society stuff. She rolls her eyes. But then I had an idea. We could use those same skills we had back then to uncover some hidden secrets!
yes I doI pull out an ancient book remember this?
eyes widen Oh my God! Where did you find that? I thought I'd never see it again.
grins Yeah, you were like a human encyclopaedia back then. Always knew where to find things and how to get us out of sticky situations. I guess some things don't change!
