Okay, someone in the village drew this map up for me, which was very helpful but he also charged me all the money I had at the time for it, which is sort of why I don't have any on me. I figured I would find loot anyway, and he was bigger than me so... Anyway I think I am rambling now.

As you can see, a platform goes into the mountains and towards where I entered. There is a broken section that I crossed with my grappling hook and rope. It might be worth spending several hours going up to get it, unless the villagers took it. I got the sense they did not expect me to come back...

So, I also added about where I think that cave I left from is, in the eastern plains. From the occasional burned trees I suspect the plains used to be more forest but there was a forest fire long ago. That means there might be something from a burned house out here to snag that might have been overlooked.

So, where to?

Head to the broken causeway and get ye grappling hook. If it's not there, then you can head to the village and complain.

Keep that amulet under your proverbial hat for now. If it turns out to be really valuable, one or two of the villagers might decide to mug you for it. You can find a reputable appraiser later.

I'm cold, but alive. Shouldn't have to deal with this stuff, snow is for those northern brutes.

And they can keep all the bloody stuff.

That rock was kind of weird, I normally am not so clumsy. And if I had known it was that easy to start an avalanche... Anyway.

Woah. I feel kinda weird. Different.

Keep your no-pants on. We don't know what they're selling, how much it costs, or how much money you'll be able to earn, if any, or how fast.

Finally! It's almost evening but I managed to trudge my way back to the village, which appears to be free from both zombies and bandits!

I can hear the water caller. They have only one well in their lumber town, and I guess all the working males are coming home thirsty.

I can probably look for something to clean or lift, but I suspect they have chopping wood covered.

My feet are fine, thank you. Let's not get carried away. Also, what is a doctor?

Anyway, got it. I will try and find my stuff again. But instead of going around asking random people,let me give you a few likely sources for information.

I can ask the water cart owner, since he probably knows everyone, though he looks a bit busy right now.

I could also talk to the map maker, since he also seemed familiar with the area. Maybe convince him to give me a partial refund in return for the map? He is kinda scary though...

Or I can ask the village leader. I do not know much about him. I only know where he lives because I was told earlier.

You might consider selling the map maker to location of the other cave entrance you found (the one you came out of), but that depends on whether or not people would kill the kobolds presumably living in there.

No. 399870 ID: 369d34

>>399777
The map maker sounds like the one to head to right now. You can talk to the water cart owner later, when he isn't busy.

When you do meet the map maker, don't ask for a partial refund right away. See if you can sell your knowledge about the layout of the tunnels and how they changed, as well as the cave exit. It'll likely be a pittance, but at least it'll be something since he almost certainly does not give refunds.

Woah there, hold it. I'm pretty sure he was being silly when he called himself daddy.

I should explain something here. As far as I know, this guy lives alone about a fourth of a mile outside of the actual village. I think that, being the only northerner in a southern village, he keeps his distance and privacy.

It's more likely he is just trying to avoid a scandal. I heard her giggling, so I doubt she is being forced.

Phew! There's the water dealer. Man, maybe the map maker is farther away than I thought - that felt like it took months!

I think the water cart guy used to do something else. But something made him lose his left arm, and then he couldn't work anymore like the other people here.

When I walk up to him, he greets me with intense enthusiasm.

"Oh. It's you again. You want some water, or to just waste more of my time?"

I admit I am a little thirsty after so much near death, but being out of money, there is not much I can do but barter or beg.

I can also ask him about my missing rope and things.

Or maybe mention my Juicy Gossip about the northerner. I mean... there is water here. It just seems like a natural place to exchange rumors somehow.

Ask him why everyone seems to be so rude.
