Zelsh now took proof that he had killed a giant spider and headed back towards the village.
(Zelsh=Badass.)
Zelsh is able to return to the village without incident, carrying the spiderâs legs as a trophy, though his armor feels heavier than usual. What would you like to do once youâre there?
Zelsh now hesded to where he could collect his payment for killing the giant spider.
Seeing that youâre alone, the man administering the bounty gives you an impressed nod as you hand over the legs, and pays you three links. âDid you kill that all by yourself?â
âYes Zelsh did. There was a second spider, but it got away before Zelsh could kill it.â Zelsh replied as he put the 3 silver in his pouch.
Wanderer enters the store (if heâs not already in there).
(iâm going to assume he overheard the previous conversation because why not)
Wanderer will support the request for checking the accounting book, suggesting that finding who it could have belonged to is vital. He ends his comment there without explaining why itâs vital.
I give him a look of fear.
He radiates an absurd level of confidence (or cockiness).
Serian retrieves a thin, leather-bound book and flips through it thoughtfully. âLooks like Iâve made three sales,â she says. âArd Flintbeard, Kamilla the blacksmithâs daughter, and Yana who married last year. Why, whatâs so special about it?â
(The descriptions here arenât entirely superfluous; they serve in part to distinguish from others with the same name.)
âWell, weâre trying to find who it belonged to. We found it a bit outside of town and thatâs potentially troubling. Could you tell us about those people?â He dodges the question entirely.
Seeing the maskless half-orc enter the store, Arius approaches the same kin wearing a mask.
âDrakor, what are your thoughts on that guy?â
(Is the store where Zelsh is tight now?)
(no, but he could go to the store after receiving his payment, if he would like)
(Ah okay. Nah. Heâd head to where he could get healed up a bit first.)
I take one step backwards. I donât say anything. I donâtâŚ
Predictably, Wanderer will sense motive when heâs doing this to gague if the shopkeep knows more than they are letting on.
