I am going to be in the area of Sanctuary in three weeks' time, and I hope to find a suitable expert in the disarming of traps.
I have prepared a challenge to test the skill of any present who believe that they will be up to a most thrilling test. The winner of the challenge will travel with me to a place of many riches and will be paid well for his or her services.
If you are interested in the challenge, please place your name below this posting. If there are enough takers, I will bring my challenge to Sanctuary.

I am interested but have several questions.
1. Are you just looking for one person, or would you be willing to accept a team of people who work together to beat your challenge?
2. Is the test itself deadly? I can only assume the place full of riches will be.
3. If someone wins the challenge are they then required to travel with you to the place of riches?
4. On what Day and around what time do you think you will be arriving to hold your challenge...assuming you get enough interest?
5. Are you willing to work around the time constraints of a dedicated innkeeper who needs to make sure his business continues to function while he is partaking of this challenge and the continuing place of riches...cause I am gonna win, just so you know.

Culloden is unfortunately taking care of other matters at the moment so has asked me to make sure his name is included to participate. He is very interested in this challenge you speak of but I am sure is also interested in the answers to Sticks questions.

My my... that is a lot of questions! So, on to the answers:
1. The actual task that will need to be performed will only allow for one person. Therefore, I am only allowing entries of single people.
2. No, no! The test will not be deadly. There will be the risk of setting off traps, of course, but I will only be using alarm traps for the test. This will cost me less, of course, but it will be just as effective at determining the disarming skill of the entrant.
3. No, though I would hope that the winner would be enticed to do so. If the winner does not wish to aid me in the actual task, then I will offer the opportunity to the second-place entrant... if they are good enough.
4. I intend to arrive in Sanctuary on Saturday afternoon.
5. Yes, I would be willing to work this, if you are as good as you say you are.
Two potential entrants thus far! A promising start.

I do hope all is well

Have you ever been faced with a choice and realized, in hindsight, that you made a drastically wrong choice?
Well, that's where I now sit.
I was faced with the choice of travelling north through some dangerous lands to Sanctuary, where I had three potential competitors, one of whom was a goblin. Or I could travel through far more civilized lands to a place with far more applicants.
Unfortunately, I made the easy but far less fruitful choice. Never have I seen so many clueless, bumbling fools entwined in the wires of my traps! I should have known that I would find more skill in lands that challenge its inhabitants simply for survival, even if the numbers were fewer.
I have determined that I must, after all, make the journey north. If you and Sticks (and perhaps the goblin) are not too offended my failure to appear, I will seek you out at the next available opportunity.

As a merchant and businesshobling, how can I not forgive your marketing choice. I am just happy to hear that my new tools will still have an opportunity to get some use.

If it is not to late, I would like to indicate my interest as well. I rather like the sound of riches, and I figure you would apperciate having a 4th canidate to make the trip worth your time.

I welcome your addition, Anna. Such a familiar name to see so far from home.
And I'm still hopeful that more will apply as well!

Am I correct in reading that many of you will be visiting the Royal Academy of Arcane Arts Northern Outpost on the first day of October? If that is the case, then I will plan to hold my challenge there then. I have always wanted to visit that place anyways.
