I have completed the quest of the Great Spirit, ridding the city of Ft. Worth
of the evil Spider spirits and their incursion there. I hope that by relating
the following information to you I can assure you that this spider conspiracy
has been stopped on both ends.

I went to Zale's jewelry store in a mall and saw no one there that bore an
evil mark upon their soul. I assensed the jewelry and saw a mystical webbing
around two rings; I asked to see them. Their power was strong, but did not
affect me. The rings were tailored for women.

I asked to see the manager. I assensed her. There was no mark of the web
on her. I was curious. Who was I to kill? Apparently this quest was to be one
without bloodshed. The Great Spirit showed me the way. I purchased the rings
and took them to a secluded hill outside the city.

I placed each ring upon a rock. Studying the auras, I swung my sword at them.
As I struck the first ring, the magical energy spun out, weblike, but
quickly dissipated, revealing a rather mundane ring. I examined the second
ring. The magic on it was the same as the previous ring, but I believe the
aura was false. These rings were not truly tools of the spider, but decoys
to distract me from the true threat.

I was confused, but the Great Spirit told me I had accomplished my task. I
am confused, Tearchild, for I came to stop the spiders and found naught but
a distraction. It is only my trust in the great spirit that prevents me
from continuing my search.]<<<<<
