== Details ==

A tall man in fine robes glares at you. You approach the man and ask, 'Are you Klines?' He shifts uneasily, 'I do not know you. If you cannot prove that you are one of our Hunters, please go away.'

<span style="color:#009">The man nods curtly, 'Oh, I see that Sathkaan has hired another...' He sighs deeply. 'I truly hope you last longer than the last one.' He hands your the Medallion back. 'I see that this is your first Contract, well we shall see how competent you are.' You look confused, then tell Klines that you have already done one job, that this was an extension of the first Contract.</span>

He gives you a quizzical look, 'Hmmm, I really need to talk to Sathkaan again... If you hand in a required item, the contract is fulfilled. You SK Medallion is marked to show this. The more Contracts you complete, the more useful you are. The Medallion details this to the reassure the Patrons you can do the job. I shall mark your Seal for the last contract. '''Speak to me when you are ready for the next Contract.''''

<span style="color:#009">You receive 1 x SK I Medallion</span>
----
Klines looks down his nose at you, 'Are you ready for your next Contract?

<span style="color:#009">Klines folds his arms, you see indecision etched on his face, 'I have a Contract, but it is not as straightforward as most of them. I am not convinced that you are capable of completing it. I have no wish to send someone to their deaths.' He looks coldly at you, 'If you think you can do this, then take the Recipe. If not... You can walk away. No one will fault you in this.'</span>

He slowly offers you a scroll bound by a leather cord.

<span style="color:#009">You receive 1 x Black Blade Dagger Recipe</span>

Klines looks away, 'Only the weak whine. If you take this on you must have a brain to complete it. '''I shall meet you in the Range, to accept the Dagger.''' You either have the mental capacity to deal with the Contract or die trying. I hope you are successful, I would hate to have to go to our Patron and tell him another Hunter has died. It's just so... Embarrassing.'

<span style="color:#009">'Do not fail me.'</span>
----
You find Klines waiting for you, 'Ah, there you are. Have you constructed a Black Blade Dagger?'

<span style="color:#009">He takes it in astonishment. 'Oh – ummmm. Yes. I did not expect you to succeed. I expected excuses and self justification on why you failed. This is rather good. Well done, you seem to be more capable than any other Sathkaan has employed. He seems to have a way of picking badly. It's his need to 'do someone a favor' that is his downfall. But – yes. Very well done.</span>

'When you are ready I shall notch your Medallion.'
----
<span style="color:#009">Klines actually smiles at you, 'So, with a successful Contract I need to notch your Medallion, hand it over.'</span>

Klines takes it from you, 'Here you go, '''now I have something else for you to do when you are done. Nathon will tell you about it. Find him at the Traders Camp. ''''

<span style="color:#009">You receive 11,556,624 Xp + 1 x SK II Medallion</span>
