"The vault air is bitter-cold, dry, and ink-stained. Copper glyphs flicker on filing cabinets. You hear a rhythmic scratching — but no quills move. One drawer opens a crack, and your name is on the tab."

The party is hired to escort Senvra Quist to Klad’s treasury. When they arrive, the guards are missing, the vault door is sealed from within — and someone has overwritten the ledgers with blood.

The King's death has disrupted the spells that were cast upon the contracts of the Suttmala, the formation of a proto-democratic system in the Kingdom of Endon. Now they are alive, and angry.

Significant NPCs:

• Senvra Quist – A Suttmala delegate with a reputation for brutal honesty, last seen heading into the treasury vaults.

• Berrin Froale – Guildmaster of the Ledgersmiths, who knows exactly who stole the book — and why he can't say.

• Holland Greeve – Clerk of Records, secretly altering royal accounts at the request of a hidden noble faction.

Rewards:

• A balance scale that weighs truth instead of gold.

• A contract page signed by a dead king — still binding.

• The Sealed Ledger itself, which updates with major political debts across Endon.

Lore Tie-Ins:

This ledger tracks early Suttmala “influence debts,” revealing how nobles were bought into the system — and who resisted.
