(Haha, weeeeelll I wasnt actually planning on there being anything that lead to Maximus and Syrus. Like no loose ends. But I guess I can work with that)
Argoth ignored Torak's remark and took the box from him. Inside was a single letter. He unrolled it and began reading.

(oh...sorry xD usually people who are being hunted down leave some sort of clue to what's happening and what they think the person who is hunting them down wants with them)
Torak watched as Argoth read the note.

(It's cool dont worry about it , I was planning on Syrus showing himself and offering an ultimatum. But its cool, I has plan. Here, come up with something good for me Artie, haha.) Argoth finished the note and looked up, "It's a note from his father.. here, read it Torak."

(Ha! That was hilarious to read... Torak: Yes. Argoth: No. Torak: Yes! Argoth: No! Torak: YES!!! Argoth: NO!!!)
Eldrin walked around Maximus's room, stealing various random objects.

Argoth walked over to Eldrin and smacked him upside the head, "Now isn't a good time for your antics Eldrin, put them back."

"Indeed, steal anything from here and Torak will bury up to your neck in the desert and let the vultures eat your brain through your eyes." Blade said, taking several things back from Eldrin.

Torak looked over at Eldrin before saying "Put those back before I have every assassin hunt you down after all of this is over with and make sure you have a very BRUTAL public execution."
He cleared his throat and read from the note.
Dear Maximus, My dearest son...I cannot erase my misdeeds from the past. I have made a deal with the devil himself...I promised a man named Syrus my son in exchange for my life. I thought I would never have children...but then you came and I swore I would keep you from this evil man...but he has found us. I am giving you this chest and this letter in hopes that you will come to forgive me one day...inside the chest is the key to defeating Syrus. I believe in you my son....
Torak finished reading and looked over the note again a few times and said "It seems he had to stop writing...must've been when Syrus attacked. Was there anything else in the chest?" Torak flipped over to the back of the note and saw Maximus' sloppy handwriting and it said Lake Hylia "I think we found out where Syrus took Maximus..." Torak said.

Eldrin smiled at Torak, "Wouldn't be the first time..." He said, then listened to Torak reading the letter. "WELL THEN! To Lake Hylia... For the brat... And his teeth..." He announced, wandering off deeper into the lair, apparently lost.

"In about ten seconds...we'll hear the traps go off and his screams of pain..." Torak mumbled.

"Please Torak, Eldrin's a master thief, he deserves some credit. I give him twelve seconds." Blade joked.

Eldrin wandered down the corridor, opening doors at random. He couldn't seem to find the exit... But he did find a nice amulet with the Assassin's of Hyrule crest on it. Slipping the amulet over his head, he continued his search. "They should really put up signs..." He muttered to himself.
Suddenly a pressure plate ground into life, sinking into the ground. Eldrin jumped away from it, staring suspiciously. "Hm... Pressure plates... Usually a sign of..." He ducked as a giant blade swung out of a hidden slot in the wall, almost chopping him in half. Seconds later a volley of small poisoned blades shot out of nearly microscopic holes in the wall. Eldrin barely avoided them, somersaulting out of the way. Next came a series of blades dropping from the ceiling which he also narrowly avoided. And finally a giant axe blade swung down from the ceiling, aiming to cut him in half again, this time vertically. Eldrin dived to the left just as the blade swung by and waited for it to stop swinging. He stood up and dusted himself off. "Traps..." As he spoke he didn't notice the giant boulder rolling down the corridor at him. He turned just as it was about to crush him. "Oh, of course... Should have seen that coming..." He said sprinting away, just barely ahead of the boulder. He ran for at least five minutes before he finally managed to slip into one of the rooms and allow the boulder to pass. As he stood there, listening to the boulder pass he noticed a set of glowing eyes in the shadows of the room. Wolves. Eldrin ran outside and slammed the door closed just as the wolf slammed against it, growling viciously.
The thief wandered the corridor for a while before finally finding Maximus's room again. He seemed to have not even been bothered by the series of traps that had almost taken his life. "You really shouldn't leave your toys lying around like that." He said casually to Torak. "Oh yeah, and feed your pets!"

"I hunt with them whenever I'm here. They get fed." Blade stated.

"Do they happen to hunt... HUMANS?!" Eldrin asked, yelling the last word and sending an echo down the corridor, the sound of more traps springing into life replied. "If so I want in... I here human meat sells for a fortune these days!"

"They do eat human meat when we use them on contracts. Oh..I would remove that amulet if I were you...it has a mechanisim to inject poison into anyone who wears it that isn't a member of our Order. It should go off in about a minute.." Torak said, eyeing the amulet that Eldrin had swiped from the hallway he was in.

Argoth was becoming angry, they had no time for such things. "Alright if Edlrin is done being stupid I think we shold head to la...Wait, wait a second. That note is a trap. It couldn't have been from his real father, both his parents are dead. I found him orphaned into the rebellion when we saved that city." Argoth's eyes flickered over to the amulet Eldrin was wearing and he stared intently at is has he thunk furiously, "But we have no choice, its our only lead on Maximus, to Lake Hylia." As Argoth finished he brushed past his friends and headed for the exit.
[Exit Argoth]
