Avoiding Mistrust A Thief 3 - Deadly Shadows Fan Mission By DarkDragon Author : DarkDragon Contact Info : saleck@saleck.net Homepage : http://www.saleck.net Version : 1.1.1 Date of Release : 17th August 2008 Scripts Required : Description : It seems my little rendezvous at Lord Raven's Mansion got the Raven's attention. My contacts have recently informed me that he has arranged a meeting with the City Watch Captain tonight at his newly constructed mansion conveniently located just a stone's throw away from Raven's place... which seems very suspicious. They are obviously planning something but I don't know what yet so what better to do then break into his house and do a little snooping around and see if I can unearth any dirty little secrets they have planned. The mansion is extremely large, even from a distance, I can see that the funding Raven is provided the City Watch is going straight into protecting the people. From where I am, I can see that the way in is very heavily guarded but there seems to be a few crates stacked outside the entrance. Hope they are dry inside..."
