Bishop Ford's Mystery

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a conference – kinda ironic, since I’m more of a “learn by doing” type. Heard whispers about a hidden library, tucked away somewhere in th… more

Nah, there's no secret library at Bishop Ford. It's a pretty standard school, old wing and all. Heard those whispers myself back in the day. Total bunk. Probably just a janitor's closet they're embellishing. Focus on the conference, you'll probably find more interesting things there than dusty textbooks.

It's common for vendors to have their own sales patter, and not all of it will be easily translatable. Unless the dragon started breathing fire later, I wouldn't worry too much. Probably just a cool souvenir story now.
