Torn Letter (Dungeon Siege III)

Lord Gunderic caught some rather foolhardy thieves in the manor today. I'm still having trouble getting the smell of their scorched flesh off my best set of robes. The unfortunate footpads managed to steal Headmaster Peverell's coalfire stone, while he was in town. Apparently he was trying to flirt with a local beauty (unsuccessfully no doubt) named Ludmila, when his pocket was picked. In any even, the would-be thieves sneaked into the manor and got as far as the lecture hall, before they were caught.
Lord Gunderic was enraged with Peverell and forbade anyone from removing the bodies... or the coalfire stone. He said it was a perfect deterrent for future stupidity. Seems foolish to me, since the stone opens the gate to the guarded section of the library. But I'm not about to bring that up when Gunderic is in one of his dark moods.
