"Just add a Goblin's Ear... and it's finished!" (Tarshall)
"Now after I sell this [Super Healing] potion, I won't have to worry about money for a few months." (Tarshall)
"I'll be going, then" (Tarshall)
{10 minutes later}
I should take the short cut to get to the town faster. Though, there are a lot of rumours that bandits run around this forest and rob people. I have to get through here quick before night comes.
"I see the town! " (Tarshall)
The [Town of Cinnamon], I don't know why it's called that but it isn't a very populated town. It's population mainly consists of beast people due to the fact that it's one of the only places in the country that doesnt discriminate against them.
"Now just to find the Apothecary and sell the potion for the sweet sweet bag" (Tarshall)
I walk around the town for a few minutes and finally locate the Apothecary
"Welcome inside! What can I hel- Oh Tarshall! Welcome back, what can I help you with?" (Doc)
Doc is the owner of the Apothecary in this town. He makes the best potions I've ever used.
"Yo, doc. I think I made a Super Healing potion, and I want to sell it." (Tarshall)
"Oh? Bring it here let me appraise it." (Doc)
I take the potion to Doc, and he brings it to the back to appraise it.
"Um, Tarshall?" (Doc)
"Yeah, what's up?" (Tarshall)
"The potion you made, well, you see. It isn't a super potion. In fact, you only made a regular potion." (Doc)
I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"What? Are you serious? I'm sure I used all of the materials required for a Super Healing Potion. Did you appraise it wrong?" (Tarshall)
If I really did make a normal potion, that wouldn't even be enough money to buy dinner! Let alone pay my rent.
"Now, you know appraisals can't be wrong. I'm sorry, but it is a normal potion. Do you want to sell it or do you want to keep it?" (Doc)
I go over and take the potion back from Doc.
"*sigh* I guess I'll be leaving then." (Tarshall)
"Okay, thank you. Come back soon!" (Doc)
"Yeah yeah" (Tarshall)
"Argh, damn it!" I said while slamming my fist on a stone wall.
Just then, I noticed a bounty board. None of the bounties caught my eye, until I noticed.
[Bounty]
The bandit boss of the East, he is extremely dangerous. He wields a magic great sword, and has a ton of lackies. He resides in a run down military post. He does not use magic, however he infuses attack magic into his sword.
[Reward 10 silver coins dead or alive]
"Well I know what I'm doing now!" (Tarshall)
I rip the bounty poster off the board and head towards the east.
This bounty shouldn't be too hard. First I will need a weapon...... which I don't have. Okay, that's fine. I'll just take one off the lackies.
"Which way is east? Man, I was never good with directions." (Tarshall)
"Maybe I can assist you." (Fairy)
I jump back due to being startled
"I don't mean to frighten you. I wish to assist you." (Fairy)
I heard fairies were the kindest, most gentle race.
"Yeah, can you help me find a military post?" (Tarshall)
I reached into my bag and pulled out the bounty poster and presented it to the fairy.
"Hm, yes. Certainly, please follow me." (Fairy)
I followed the fairy for 20 minutes and she led me to the run down post.
"I believe this is your destination. Please be careful on your expedition." (Fairy)
I made my way to the entrance of the post. It reeked of dead animal.
"Where would this bandit boss be at?" I whispered while holding my nose.
"Did you hear that?" (Bandit 1)
"Hear what? I didn't hear anything." (Bandit 2)
"I thought I heard someone talking." (Bandit 1)
"Its just the other guys, why are you being so cautious?" (Bandit 2)
Okay, well at least I know this is the right spot.
I continue walking and hide behind a wall. There was a group of 5 bandits that I saw all sitting at a wooden table playing cards.
"Well, there's no other way around" (Tarshall)
I stop hiding and enter the room
"Hey! Who're you?!" (Bandit)
"Huh? Hey!" (Bandit)
All the bandits turn and look and me
I run and jump kick one of the bandits. I take his dagger. He tried to get up so I plunged to dagger into his throat.
"One down, four to go." (Tarshall)
"Hey! He killed Larry!" (Bandit)
"I swear I'll kill you!" (Bandit)
One of the bandits run to me and swing his sword, aiming to decapitate me. I swiftly dodge the blade and stab the dagger into his side. I then take his sword and cut his head off.
I take the dagger and throw it at one of the remaining bandits, which he then blocks with his shield. However, that makes the shield useless so he throws it aside.
"[Intimidation]!" (Bandit)
"Oh? You can use assist skills? Well, a skill of that caliber won't affect me!" I said while running towards him.
He swung his sword down attempting to slice me, but I block it and kick him in the groin. The bandit fell to his knees.
"Why don't you fight me instead" (?)
