Black Lion Vault Security Team Skritt Break-In at the Black Lion Vaults Hello Commander, There's been another skritt-led security breach at the Black Lion vaults here in Lion's Arch, and Mr. Gnashblade is- to put it mildly- upset. They're calling themselves the Lock Bite Gang. Emboldened by the success of the Knife Tail Gang, they've worked themselves up into larcenous frenzy. They made off with a hefty haul, and we'd appreciate your help in reminding them that some shinies are off-limits. A few bruises should teach them to keep their noses out of our vaults, and you're welcome to keep any supplies you recover. Stop by if you have any questions.—Black Lion Vault Security Team |
