===1509-02-05===
So we rejoin Georg aka Carl as he starts his tenure as court wizard to the paranoid Baron Nokin Song. He is given a house and robes of office and the shinny new title of Arc. His first tasks is to identify a magic ring belonging to the Baron, and to learn divination spells in preparation for future tasks.
The Lord informs him of a tomb belonging to a wizard which may contain what he needs. And so Arc Carl becomes a respectable excavator of tombs. Sadly when Ginger a descendant of the wizard visits the tomb, she mistakes Georg for a common grave-robber, and runs off to tell the lord. Georg ignores the interruption and continues with his work. And with tools of copper and magic skill, soon gains entry to the tomb. He finds an illusionary wall inside. but sadly he forgets to bring torches so he is unable to explore the darkness, and calls it a day.

The next morning he returns to the Baron to give him an update on his progress. He also reads the magical inscription on the ring and learns it grants the wearer the ability to move objects with their mind, which greatly pleases the lord. And so Georg leaves town and heads to the barrows to once more continue his respectful excavation.
Georg ignores a creepy mummified dog at the foot of the sarcophagus, a decision that bites him in the arse later, or rather, the leg. But with the help of the amulet, the magic dagger, and rope trick, he easily dispatches the zombie dog.
The tomb is a treasure trove of scrolls, books, and magic reagents. So much that Georg has to retrieve a wheelbarrow to collect it all.
===1509-02-07 to 1509-02-10===
The next three days Georg spends curled up with his treasure, greedily reading all the magic scrolls, and learning to cast the spells they hold, while recovering from his zombie dog bite.
===1509-02-11===
After his period of study, Georg returns to the motte and bailey to report to the Baron. He learns the whole area is being harassed by Gnolls.
The Lord Nokin Song informs Georg he can arrange a meeting with Arc Randall, Court Wizard to Countess Castillion, from whom Georg can learn Divination Spells. He is also tasked with using his magic to instil such fear into the marauding Gnolls that they stop their attacks.
Georg is also taken into the shadowy dungeons below the castle, where Baron Song reveals he is keeping a unicorn prisoner. The poor creature is being bled daily to keep it weak, and the Baron tells Georg to find out how what the individual parts of the unicorn fetch on the market, as he needs to refill the Barony's Coffers. Unsure how he feels about the situation, Georg nevertheless agrees to look into the matter.
