I'm reading a book on medieval relic thefts and relic trade, and it is hilariously entertaining.
I keep thinking how fun these stories would be as a #DnD adventure... With epic bluff checks for selling the acquired relics as genuine.
And convincing people the saint spoke to you in a dream and wanted to be stolen. 😄 👼
