As such, Dagracourt's prestigious reputation turned into one of absolute dread and horror, and it was eventually abandoned. Nowadays, it was regarded as a spooky ruin that even the locals avoided.

It took the team several days to explore it, but they found a records room in which a "peculiar hat" was listed as having been removed by someone named Remi Viviloro. There was a chance the name was just an alias, of course, but it was another lead, at least; and now the team was looking for more clues in Jeruda.

Their search could still reach a dead end, but hell, as long as they weren't being attacked, Hector considered that enough of a win so far.

The Ardoran team was similar. He'd sent them after the Mask of Amordiin, which according to Emiliana Elroy, was last seen in the Gettira Plains--though, again, she mentioned that her information was quite out of date, in this case over 330 years old.

Despite that fact, the team had already discovered that the Mask had at one time been in the possession of a local lord. Apparently, it had been stolen by a thief and caused all sorts of commotion when the lord started executing suspects without trial. As a result, the new king of the land came down upon the lord's head and had him executed, which historians say probably avoided a revolt.

But the Gettira Plains were incredibly vast, and the team was following up on famous thieves who had lived in the region during that time period. By all accounts, they sounded optimistic, but again, Hector wasn't holding out hope.

There was one more team, as well. Not a treasure hunting team like the other three, but a scouting party in deep cover.

A team that they had sent to Sair.
