• Then it's up to us to show the council another way.
• We are. Tell me more about the Snaff Prize.
• Snaff was a great, great genius in the field of golemancy. He died too young and under tragic circumstances, so his apprentice, Zojja, pushed hard to create this competition in his honor.
• I've met Zojja. She's one of the best there is...and Snaff was her mentor?
• Right. Snaff always encouraged the young would-be geniuses. She founded this contest as a testament to his work, and to identify Rata Sum's promising new inventors.
• That's us. Time to show the judges that we live up to Snaff's example.
• Time to make our mark. I'll need you and Kozzak at your best. This is for the Snaff Prize!
• Tell me more about the Snaff Prize.
• I'm ready, chief. Let's go.
• Corrupted Ice Turret
• Snaff was the preeminent genius of his day. He died herocially...or tragically, depending on who you ask. Zojja, his former apprentice, worked day and night to set up this competition in his honor.
• Kick
• Right. Snaff always challenged would-be geniuses to excel. She founded this contest as a testament to his work, and to identify Rata Sum's most promising new inventors.
• That's us, then. Let's show these other so-called geniuses how it's done.
• Now that's how you win a Snaff Prize! Now to capitalize on our achievement: let's get out there and track down whatever has the VOED so worked up.
• Right behind you, chief.
• Dig Up
• I don't know about you, but I'm about to collapse on the ground shaking. This is for the Snaff Prize! The! Snaff! Prize!
• Breathe, Kozzak. We've been prepping for months. We're ready.
• Rat Cache
• We won! Well, we can't call one of us the Snaff Prize Savant just yet, but they did say we won. That's what I told Shrieksy, anyway.
• We did win. And you can tell Shrieksy we won't let the Inquest spoil it.
• When this storm started, he could smell the stench of the ice dragon. He took a group west to dispel it.
• And in this case, one is greater than nine. Thanks, Zojja. I'll meet you on the road.
• They're completely amoral, bent on world domination, and they only care about results...which they often get. That gives them sway with the Arcane Council, which gives them free run of Rata Sum.
• But they're dangerous. And criminal. Why does the council allow them in the city at all?
• The council is all about long-term asuran supremacy. As long as the Inquest delivers spectacular and effective new inventions, the council turns a blind eye to their worst offenses.
• All right, then. We'll just have to recover the translocator ourselves.
• Color me anxious. Varkk is extra cranky about this whole thing and has me so wound up I don't know if I'm coming or going...which is funny when you consider our entry is a teleporter.
• We'll do fine. Let's get started.
• Show me where to find him.
• Good luck to him.
• The son of Stigand the Dragontouched lives nearby. His father was a corrupt shaman who terrorized the Wayfarer Hills. The son is just as terrible as his father was. But we're not soldiers. Can you help?
• Right. Snaff always encouraged and challenged young would-be geniuses to excel. She founded this contest as a testament to his work and a way to identify Rata Sum's most promising new inventors.
• Sure. Point me to the son of Stigand.
• Now we can get started. Are you fully prepared? This is for the Snaff Prize, so everybody needs to be at their very best.
• You're on your own.
• I'm all set, chief. Let's go.
• Clear
• Spider Cocoon
• Collect
• Tattered Armor
• Break
• If you're as good at breaking evil Inquest golems as you are an inventor, you have shot at the Snaff Prize.
• Svanir Territory Marker
• Thanks. Trust me, you and the other judges haven't seen anything yet.
• Corrupted Ice Container
• Snaff was the preeminent genius of his day...of all time. He died herocially way before his time. Since then, I've worked day and night to set up this competition in his honor.
• Investigate.
• Snaff always encouraged and challenged young would-be geniuses to excel. The Snaff Prize Competition is a continuation of that, and a way to identify Rata Sum's most promising new inventors.
