Man, it worked! Now where the meds?
"Now just hold on. The herbs teleport us to a random location, so I need to get my bearings. Describe the room we're in in detail and- wait, do I hear beeping? We're in a room with a wall of flashing lights, aren't we? Crap. The machine in here is just an absolute dick."
Read that note! Keep torch away from Cyrni.
"Damnit you, give me that back. It's a torch to you, but a weapon to me."
Silently wonder what deals the drug dealer has...
Trying to keep Cyrni's torch away from her, Xorg reads off the slip of paper:
"LOOKS LIKE SOME INSECTS HAVE WANDERED INTO MY WEB STOP WHY DONT WE HAVE A LITTLE FUN STOP"
"Oh, gods, that can't be good," says the blind drug dealer.
As he says this, the floor splits down the middle, and the party is drop unceremoniously down a large circular chute. Fortunately, their fall is broken by a very large pool of Jello. Unfortunately, they are now surrounded by a shit-ton of clockwork kobolds.
Cyrni uses the momentary distraction to steal back her torch.
The tunnel leads to a kiosk that seemingly built into the tunnel itself, with a man sitting behind the counter. Some t-shirts are hanging from a wire above the counter. A certain shirt that catches your eye has these symbols on it:
Going from left to right: First there is a circle, with a symbol of two smiling faces together. Then there is an arrow pointing left. Then there is an archway full of darkness with a broom underneath it. On the next line is a solitary line, followed by a blank face, then an arrow pointing to a circle, then an arrow pointing down with a circle beneath it, and finally a t-shirt with a pile of feces under it.
Attached to the t-shirt is a tag with a pinetree, another pinetree below that, another pinetree below that, three pinecones together below that, and a single pinetree below that. All these symbols are sideways.
Flash Frost the shopkeeper and chop him to tiny pieces with axechucks, then grab the t-shirt and run. Doesn't matter where.
You try to freeze and chop up the shopkeeper, but your attacks are deflected by some sort of magical force field. You have just been thwarted by Yadille, Patron Goddess of Shopkeepers.
"Seriously, buddy, trying to attack a shopkeeper in his own store? If I was hauling goods from place to place, you might be able to waylay me, on account of Yadille's accord with Sarthak, but, while I'm behind this counter? I'm fucking invincible, bro."
Honestly, now, what kind of crappy RPG would this be if you could just kill shopkeepers outright?
Churar: Run like hell. When you can no longer run, swim like hell.
Are you using curses with expiration, or permanent curses?
(According to the rules, this is the sort of curse that is permanent, but only comes into effect when it is funny to do so.)
I'm assuming by run, you mean Critically Accelerate? (*Rolls*) Oh, looks like you failed to cast properly. You start sinking, but then the colossal squid picks you up in one of it's tentacles and puts you in its mouth. You black out in terror.
When you finally regain consciousness, you find you are seating in a booth at a 1950s style diner. A waitress is looking at you expectantly, asking you want you want to order.
Head to the city, and check up on Adele.
You head back out of the mushroom field and continue down the road to the city. The tunnel slowly widens, opening up into an enormous cavern. You see a bazaar has assembled at the entrance to the city, where merchants are hawking their various wares.
"Freshly harvested tentacle here! Strait from the Squid!"
"I got quality picks! Guaranteed to bust whatever you swing 'em at!"
"Succulent mushrooms! Just picked this cycle start!"
"Cheap jewelry! Most definitely not stolen off of dead orphans!"
"Discount prophecies! Vital plot exposition at prices that can't be beat!"
"Cats! Get your cats here!"
And a multitude of other small businesses are present. You could probably find just about anything you want here if you look for it.
