### 332

The elder points the tip of his black staff at the satchel containing the Moonstone which is slung over your shoulder. You feel the warmth of the stone rapidly increasing until the satchel becomes uncomfortably hot against your thigh (lose 2 ENDURANCE points). You are about to cry out in pain when suddenly the elder moves his staff and the heat of the stone swiftly cools.

Although you have suffered physical discomfort induced by his magical staff, you sense that the elder is still unaware of what the satchel contains. The korlinium lining has kept your secret secure.
