Mission:Common - Find the missing class

Find the missing class

Briefing

Professor Black from Paragon University recently took an advanced class of geology students spelunking in the caves under the city. It's kind of a tradition for him, but this was the first time he's taken a class down since the Rikti War. According to the dean, that class hasn't reported back yet. Somebody's got to find that missing class. You only have 75 minutes to find the students.

Mission Acceptance

I'm worried about this class, Character. They were supposed to be back hours ago.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You must find Professor Black and his students.

Mission Objective(s)

A few sack lunches and a muddy textbook are the only signs that the missing students were ever here.

Professor Black conversation

When you rescued Professor Black, he said: 'It was most extraordinary! We had found what looked to be some sort of earlier excavation. It was incredible. The huge caverns! The most amazing rock formations! There was a strange stone that looked as though it were some sort of petrified ice. We'd just located some sort of man-made stone work, when we were suddenly surrounded by those robed figures! It's a good thing you came along when you did!'

Debriefing

I wonder why the Circle attacked that class? Perhaps they were close to finding something the Circle didn't want anyone to know about? Regardless, the Professor and his students are safe. They have you to thank for that, Character.
