"Ah-ha! Yes, you must be the adventurers? We've been expecting you!" a thin tarut exclaims as you enter a large building on one of the higher plates of Rios. The reception area is comfortable enough with carpeted floors and a large wooden desk, with a pretty elvaan woman sitting behind it looking bored.

You hardly have time to think on this, however, as the tarut waves you over. "This way! This way!" he yells as he holds open a door leading further into the laboratories.

Walking through the halls of facility itself is a bit less welcoming, the walls and floors made of pure stainless steel, with scientists and researchers of all races milling about. The tarut keeps your attention, however, as you walk.

"I represent the R&D Department of Steeling Industries, a weapons manufacturer whom provides cutting edge weapons and armor to the Rios military complex," he explains as he leads you further into the building. "But, of course, to find better ways to kill fiends, you have to know how fiends tick and that's where I," he stops momentarily to point to you, "And YOU come into the picture."

"You see," he says as he opens a nearby door and leads you inside, to a room full of diagrams of various fiends and monsters, each one pointing out key points of their anatomies and their weaknesses, "I'm in the Fiend Research Division, and we are always looking for new Adventurers to help us acquire raw materials... and we have a slew of all new and powerful fiends that have been recently born!"

Chugging up to the front of the room he reaches a filing cabinet and begins digging about, "But, I think we'll start you all off a bit easy with this creature..." Stopping he pulls out a small file and opens it. "The... Udrafresk, as the natives of the area call it. It lives in the mountains northeast of Cornelia, and has the appearance of a great, ahem... skinless ape, with rocks protruding from its massive arms..."

Snapping closed the folder he looks back up at you. "And that's really all the information we have! Well other than where its been cited and its favorite prey, but before we reveal that... we are willing to pay 250 gil to each of you for his arms and head, intact, 500 gil to each if you can bring us his entire body with minimal damage... and, though we don't expect it, 750 gil to each of you if you bring us a live specimen. OH!" he exclaims his eyes lighting up, "And before you decide, know that there is much more work for you should you complete this assignment to our satisfaction! So... do we have a deal?"

The diminutive man smiles brightly as he awaits your answer.
