Vault Beneath the Forgotten Spire

The party found this cache within a collapsed side chamber of a stone vault beneath a ruined spire. Dust and old iron tools indicate the place was used as a supply and storage room long ago. Most valuable items are intact and carefully wrapped, suggesting a hurried abandonment rather than chaotic looting. Practical items for immediate survival and a couple of items of clear magical power will reward the party both in utility and coin. The ledger and the shard hint at deeper secrets below: the ledger could reveal patrol patterns or contracts if studied, and the Shard of Deepstone will be prized by a craftsman or enchanter seeking stable material for a small ritual or item upgrade.
