"I... guess that could work. We're adventurers, so we're probably going to stay on the move often. What do you think, Tristan?" the elf asked.

"Well, it's decided then. To hell with that job, let's tackle the next one. Everyone in for a little haunting investigation?" she said, smiling.

"Sounds fun to me." Holo said.
"I'll go wherever you want." Tristan said.
"I suppose a gentleman like myself can't say no to a vital investigation." Babbo said.
Chester just hopped up and nibbled on your ankle.

The elf let out a cute cry of surprise from the nibbling. "I... take it that's a yes too?" she said, petting the fluffy creature. "Alright. Gimme a sec", she said, taking the job offer paper to read on the details and the location of the possibly haunted ruins. 5 in Intelligence to do so.

You see it's location an abandoned castle on a hill outside the city.

"It's not so far. Let's go then", Lauren said, smiling, as she led the way.

"Okay... first things first", the elf said as they made it to the ancient fortress, gently pressing her hand on the wall. "...Let's see if you're as haunted as the rumors claim..." she said, casting a spell to sense a possible haunting, traces of a spirit bound to this old place. 13 (Ef) into Sorcery into an attempt at sensing possible traces of a spiritual entity haunting the location.

You search and sense three such entities. Each spirit stronger than the one before it. Thankfully it seems they are not awake at the moment.
"Find anything?" Tristan asked setting Chester back on the ground. "What's the plan?"

"I... am concerned. These ruins are, indeed, haunted... by three spirits, which I feel to be quite powerful, yet asleep. This is supposed to be an investigation job, but if we dig too deep, we risk awakening - and possibly angering - three potent spirits. Let me check the job's details a bit... see how deep they wish for this investigation to be", she said, consulting the document again. 4 in Intelligence to check what's expected of us on this investigation job. Since for all we know, just checking if it's haunted at all might be enough. Who knows. XD

The job was split into sections... If you simply confirmed it was haunted you would only get a quarter of the reward.

"Hmmm..." she let out as she checked what the other sections were about.

the other section is to exorcise the spirits haunting the place or at least do something so they won't bother people who come near again.

"Okay, so... if we leave merely after confirming the existence of the ghosts, we'll only be paid 25%. If we want the rest of the payment, we must either exorcise them, or do, um, something to make sure they don't bother anyone again", Lauren explained. "It... could be very dangerous. But we would probably save a lot of lives in the long run if we stop those spirits from harming people. What do you think?"
