We did that last time though. How about we enter the village in disguise for a more hands-on approach?
+1
Should look around, is no rush, can at least see if better opportunities/ideas (or difficulties) present themselves once inside.
A tall stranger enters the village of Fellshore, making his way towards the inn. Once inside, he orders a plate of raw meat and a pint of water, then sits in a corner and listens.
"I hear the mayor is going in person to Vabalin to find a new priest."
"Hopefully one better than their predecessor, gods bless their soul."
"I'm telling you, if I caught any more fish I'd've sunk me boat"
"And I'm telling you that I could sink two boats with my latest haul!"
"Give thanks to Imber, eh?"
"Well, yes. But not a tenth of my catch. Two fish is enough, surely."
"It was enough when we caught a score of fish a day, why shouldn't it be enough now?"
"Cheers to that!"
"...do you think it was a wolf what ate him?"
"Shh!"
The stranger responds to a request to pay with a wave and a
NO, which the innkeeper accepts as totally normal, then ponders his next course of action
-Investigate this departed priest some more
-Investigate this casual blasphemy some more
-
Investigate this wolf some more wait no it was you who ate him you already know this
-Do something else
