'You have come back, which is more than I might say of my last apprentice! He was frightened of the crocodiles outside the city, and when I told him to just move faster than they do, he left my service on the spot! How ungrateful! But that means the coin I would have given to him can instead be given to whoever fulfills his duties for me, and those have been piling up: coin and duties both!

'One of the services I provide for every lock I fashion is a periodic test to ensure that the lock remains in good condition. This involves trying to open the locked door, and making certain that the lock holds. Will you perform these tests for me? The doors in question are to the north-east of the Grand Market. Test all three of the doors and report back to me with your findings.'
