tells this story about this dagger:
"Several
months ago, I went to the basement of Albion to reset a circuit
breaker. I had ventured into a section of the basement that I
had never seen before. Before I realized it, I was no longer in
the basement, but I was walking in a subterranean passage. With
my flashlight in hand, I ventured deeper into the passage. All
of a sudden I was attacked by the strangest creature. He stood
about 5' 8" and had black skin and hair that was whiter than snow.
He lunged at me with a dagger. My years of military training saved
me because I shifted my weight and allowed the blade to pass by
me. At the same moment, I grabbed his arm and wrist and twisted
the blade from his hand. I then proceeded to dump him on the ground.
Dazed and unarmed he jumped to his feet and ran off into the darkness.
"I
made my way back to the basement and sealed the hole with some
wood planks. I took the dagger to Howy who immediately recognized
it. ‘That is a Drow dagger,’ he stated in a flat yet awed tone.
‘Drow?’ I asked. ‘The Dark Elves…’ That was enough information
for me… I do not want this cursed weapon so I am offering it for
sale. It is an evil thing. Very light and agile. Clearly, its
only purpose is to slip between the ribs of some helpless person
lost in the darkness."
Okay,
