As I walked into my house after the concert, I still had Beethoven's 4th concerto swimming around in my head.  What a performance!  I tossed my keys on the table and headed into the living room to sit down at my Steinway D for a few minutes before I got ready for bed.  As a flipped on the light, the empty space in the room stopped me dead in my tracks.  It was gone!! My piano was gone!!

I froze with fearful thoughts before i decided to walk into my bathroom and wash my face with some ice cold water.  A chill ran down my spine as the message "Room 302" appeared in the mirror.  Suddenly i heard a deadly noise, and that was when i caught sight of the portal/hole that opened up in my bathroom wall.  This reminded me of the game i beat last night...Silent Hill 4.

The haunting opening to the 2nd movement beckoned me to explore the gaping hole, so I reached for my Gillette multi-tool.  As I made my way through the mystery, I got chills thinking about my beloved Steinway's fate.  The light from my bathroom suddenly disappeared!  With my dexterous fingers I inserted the miniflash.  The light revealed a note at my feet written in an ancient dialect.   I took a breath and began to translate. . .
He was not of an age, but for all time.

It said...  ur piano is hidden in a imperial city morrowind home of the dung race. this is a game.... 1 u have to go alone 2 u cannot bring weapons 3 u have only 24 hours to locate ur piano.  if u do not succeed ur piano will be droped into the pit of dung...
So i got my gas mask, hard hat, and bullet proof armour. GAME ON!   I exited my house and thus began my dark and dangerous journey for my beloved Steinway.

i quickly disabled 'enemy health bars' with my hacking of 1.1.0605 patch, and continued on to red mountain where i slew dagoth by holding up a bible, but only after asking where my piano was.  he said he would only tell if i would sell my skills to him in exchange for cash with select NPC's.  i said i had no skills and was always unarmoured as well.  in fact, i told him i also never cast spells and always seemed to have luck on my side with evasion chances.
