The Contact Letter



Dear Giant-folk,

I hope this letter finds you safe and happy. My name is Mika Mumpus, protector of the kingdom of Ammowan.

Although Ammowan is a very large area for the gnomes of our kingdom, its only a small area for giant-folk like you.

The final vote by the Ammowan high council was 5 to 4 in favor of contacting you, and thats why you are holding this letter now. As you probably know, communicating with giant-folk is prohibited by gnome law. But our situation is dire, and it was your love of nature and kind disposition that led us to contact you.

We need your help.

You see, every 365 days, the great sweeping hits our fair kingdom. This is a time when trolls sweep through Ammowan looking to capture us. But dont be afraid. Trolls are terrified of giant-folk like you. Just one scent, or sign of you, and they will run in the other direction as fast as their unkempt feet will take them. We gnomes however, are very susceptible to being captured by trolls.

Ammowan is usually very well prepared for the great sweeping. But this time, some absent-minded youglings left evidence of our existence out in the open. And if the trolls find signs of us they’ll have no trouble sniffing us out. Alas, it is now too late for us to retrieve the items and cover our tracks.

Will you help us by finding the items we left out and remove any signs of gnomes that you find?

As long as you can find the items and help us cover our tracks we will stay safe for another 365 days! We will send you another letter once the sweeping is over
and we are safe.

You are our only hope!

Sincerely,

Mika Mumpus
Lord Chancellor of Ammowa
