Defeated a Cleric and Zhentarim guards, freed members of the City guard. They spent some time selling items and buying equipment. While selling some gems and jewelry the Paladin of the group found a wanted poster which was posted just outside the shop. While requiring within the shopkeeper explains to them that a very valueable gem had been stolen. The only clue was a small piece of torn clothing. They traced it back to a seamstress shop. One of the women did indeed repair a cloak made with the same material. The PCs are setting up ambushes in the city hoping the thieves will fall into their hands. My question to you all is what can I use as a motive for the Fire Knives to take this valueable gem? I know from the sourcebooks that the Fire Knives are more or less murderers but that it all the books say about them.
