How well do you know Prospero?

It's the question on everyone's lips this month as adventurers, merchants and crafters alike traipse across Sapience seek the answers to five riddles concerning Prospero, Lord of Wealth and Trade. The event, sponsored by the Prosperian Merchants and hosted by Serenade Masquerade, challenges contestants to sharpen their wits against the riddles in a bid to win a share of 50 CR.

The answer to each of the questions is a single item. When all five items have been collected, the contestants send them in a letter to Seraya, the founder and chief operating officer of Serenade Masquerade.At the end of the month, the Prosperian Merchants, we will gather at the Merchant's Construction in the furthest north corner to draw the names of the lucky winners of one 30 Credit prize and one 20 Credit prize.
