This is about... 6 months old, and needs a lot of revising, but I thought that I would post it here for y'all to glance at.
And yes, I know the wep's are OP. They will be adjusted to be in line with the kneesnappers, I supose.
Anyways, I like the inkheart trilogy (inkheart, inkspell, inkdeath) and I was thinking that the “power” from that book series would work well in a quest series. (the power from the books is that when the main character (or a few others) read aloud from a book, the things in that book come to life. Example: Main character reads a passage from Treasure Island aloud, a pile of gold coins appear.) So I'm gonna have the little girl who discovers this “power” and comes to you to help them get rid of the monsters that she reads out of a books. (this is why it is activated by the Reading Lessons quest) At the end, they discover what their ability can do and can read you something out of a book. I was thinking that you get one weapon of your choice from a particular set of weapons (you know, one per path or something), non-tradeable of course, but you have to fight a boss monster specific to that weapon that comes out of the book with it. That would be the last quest. I think I'm gonna have the little brother do something important... Anyways, here is what I have so far.
Quest One: Little Miss Muffet...
Suddenly, you see a girl running down the street with a hideous monster chasing her. The monster looks like it came from some kind of fairy tale.
Accept?
Thank you for accepting this quest
You are on your way home that evening from your duel with the Dirty Rotten Zombie in which you learned to read scrolls. You stop by the booth that sells books about legendary duelists in Phyrra. A book catches your eye about a quartet of duelists, one of each class, who were very rich and owned some of the best items in Phyrra. It talks about their rise to wealth, and then their sudden disappearance – with all of their weapons too. It has one story about each duelist, in which they used their favorite weapon, which was unique to that duelist. They were so famous that they were simply call the Fearsome Four: The Mage, The Druid, The Warrior, and The Assassin. You like the book enough to buy it.
As you hand the vendor your money, a girl runs down the street with a spider chasing her. You step out into the street in front of the girl and tell the her to calm down and relax. You will handle this thing. You ask her where it came from.
She says, “I'm not totally sure. I was reading my brother a bedtime story and this thing suddenly appeared next to his bed. It resembles the evil monster in the story I was just reading.”
Suddenly, you realize that the monster should have reached you by now. You turn around to see where it is, and see it swinging its front legs right at you.
Duck! (fight)
spider level 3 (you beat Dirty Rotten Zombie (level 4), so this should be an easy fight)

The girl thanks you for saving her from the monster, as do all of the onlookers, who were very frightened. She offers to take you to her house to have dinner tomorrow with her family: her younger brother, and her mother, who works in the evenings, but has tomorrow off.
End of the first quest. This quest will activate the second quest automatically.
Quest Two:...and the Three Bears
The next day has arrived. It is dinner time. You head for the address that the girl gave you yesterday.
Accept?
You walk slowly down the street as you think over the fight the other day. What a strange monster that was. You have never seen a spider that large before. As you get closer to the house, you see a man attacking one of the Khan in the street. Everyone else is running away. You can't let him do this!
Stop him! (fight)

It is now getting late as you head once more for the house of the girl that you saved yesterday. As you get close, you hear a woman's voice screaming! Rushing towards the sound, you see the girl from yesterday again, this time pursued by a trio of bears.

Quest End
Quest Three: King's Man
After you calm the family down, you sit down to dinner, now cold, and begin to try to find out what is going on.
Accept?
As you sit down for dinner, you notice that when the girl talks, she has the most beautiful voice that you have ever heard. The dinner, though cold, is not bad. It is a kind of stew, with meat in it that you are not sure what kind it is. It tastes like chicken.
You attempt to start a conversation with the mother. After several fruitless minutes, you only learn that her name is Teresa.
Talking to the girl produces more results.
“So, tell me, what is your name,” you ask, with a smile
She replies, “I go by Meg as my nickname. I used to have a different name, but nobody uses it anymore.”
Then you ask, “Can you tell me a in a little more detail what has been happening recently?.” When she hesitates, you add, “I don't mean to pry or anything, I'm just curious. I'm just wondering if I can help out.”
She glances at her mother, who reluctantly nods her approval for Meg to go on. “Well, I think that it has something to do with the book that I sometimes read bedtime stories to my brother from. I started doing this a week ago, not long after auntie El taught me how to read. Mom has done this for him for years, but she has been especially busy with her business lately. She was robbed a few years ago by someone named...”
Teresa interrupts, and says in an irritated tone, “Slan Baran. Not that it is any of your business.”
You explain how you captured him just today, and Teresa expresses her gratitude for your deed. To get back on subject, you ask Meg, “What is so special about this book?”
She thinks a moment before replying, “Well, I don't know. Mommy has had it for as long as I can remember. She says that daddy brought it back through the portal before he di...”
“Meg!! You know that you are not supposed to talk about that in-front of strangers!” Interrupts Teresa.
Meg protests, “But mommy, he saved me and caught that guy who robbed from you! He's a friend.”
Her mom sighs, “Very well. I will go make sure that my Mark is sleeping soundly, this is too painful for me to hear.”
After Teresa leaves the room, Meg continues, “Mark is my little brother. My father was a seeker. He occasionally brought things back from the places he visited. We lived well in those days. Or so mommy tells me, I was very young then, and Mark was not even born yet, according to her. See here, he once brought back this device of far-seeing from one of the places he visited. The storybook came from another trip. Anyways, he disappeared about nine years ago, and we know that he is dead.”
Here there is a pause as the Meg begins to sob quietly. Teresa comes back into the room. “Mark is sleeping quietly. Meg loved her father, and misses him very much.”
Meg gathers herself together and continues, “I first read from the book that daddy brought me a week ago. I was reading a story about a boy who lost his shadow and was friend with a fairy. Suddenly, there was a rustling noise, and I saw the a small creature, glowing, and with wings, trying to fly out of the window. I think it was the fairy from the book.”
You can only stare in astonishment. This must be an amazing book.
Meg continues, “Mommy was home the every night after that and read to Mark, so she read to him. Last night however, she was working late, and I had to read to him. I read him a story about some silly girl who was sitting on something called a “tuffet.” I was getting to the interesting part – a spider scaring her – when it fell from the celling the ground and scared me instead. Thanks for saving me. Tonight I had to read again because mommy was cooking for you. I was reading about another silly girl. Silly girl tales seem to be my brother's favorite. Anyways, this one was about some girl named Goldilocks. Again, when I got to the interesting part – the bears chasing her – I looked up and saw them chasing me!”
You think for a while, then ask Teresa, “Have you ever done this while reading to him?”
She immediately replies, “No, I most certainly have not!”
Meg says, “Want me to read another story to you?”
You prepare your self and say, “yes, but a non-scary story, please.”
She reads an interesting story about an egg that fell off of a wall. This time, a knight in shining armor rides in and attacks you with his sword.
Fight him!
