[Ask the girl about the man]

Hadley grabbed the nearest book and started reading aloud. "When the sun disappears at night, legend says it becomes different. The moon is its counter part, sometimes referred to as the brightest light in the night. Some, however, argue that the sun goes far away from our world, shrinking in the night and the brightest star becomes the brightest light in the night."

• Continue reading
• Close the book and talk to the man
• Take the book and leave the tower

Rowan sighed and turned back to the girl, picking up some more things. When asked about the man the girl made a face. "That is Master Fresno. He is not from this kingdom but won the kings favour and became the weapons master. He chose me to apprentice under him but I did not want this, I was fairly close to becoming a squire." She said, frowning

• Ask more questions
• Put everything away and find the man
• Put everything away and leave

[Close the book and talk to the man]

Hadley turned to the seated man and asked about the written text. "Well the prince has been studying the sun and has visited other kingdoms and talked to top scholars and wrote this. He, like many others, has been trying to solve the Plague issue. After coming to this conclusion, he doesn't know what to go in so he had me study the sun and its movements."

[Put everything away and find the man]

“Whoa, what is with that man?” Jack asked, raising his eyebrows as he reread the passage. “So he really caused the Plague?” He glanced back at the girl. “What do you think?”

(Oh crap, I forgot to respond to you)

Melissa smiled. Allow me to accompany you to the armoury. You must get your supplies. You will need rations as well so a trip to the kitchen is also needed. Perhaps some books for research if that is needed. You need a traveller's outfit as well. I can give you one of Elizabeth's.

[Accept? Yes or No]

What would you like to do?

• Rations from the kitchen
• Research books
• Supplies from the armoury
• Check inventory (new)
• Decline any help and figure things out on your own

Rowan walked towards the man after waving at the girl. "Have a good day then sir!" She smiled and continued doing her chores. Once the man came into view, Rowan could feel the same sense of unease wash over him like a wave crashing down. His gut was telling him that it may not be a good idea to come towards the man in his corner space.

• Listen to the gut and go outside
• Listen to the gut and have the girl help
• Ignore the gut and go to the man
• Check inventory (new)

The Princess smiled. "Who do you think is in the wrong here?"

• The travelling merchant and his cursed animals
• The baker and his barrel of rotted things
• The crowd
• The cursed animals
• No ones, all had a good reason to do what they did

[Accept, supplies from armory]

Melissa took out a beautiful outfit and a simple black cloak. She handed it to Lady Elspeth with a smile. "This was a gift from me to her with the promise that she would wear it when she goes outside for the first time." Melissa sat in thought for a few moments before sitting up. "Let's go to the armoury." Once she put on the new clothes, Lady Elspeth followed Melissa to the armoury where Rowan already was.

• Look at weapons
• Let Melissa give you a tour
• Talk to the girl
• Look at armour

(idk if i can do this but…)

Jack bit his lip. “Well, no one was entirely in the right. The baker shouldn’t have been cruel to the magician, but the magician didn’t have to retaliate with a curse. The animals probably couldn’t help it, though. There are other ways to to do things that don’t hurt people. I think that’s what the king wants us to do. Undo the hurt. Find a better solution.”

[Let Melissa give you a tour]
“Thank you very much, Melissa,” Lady Elspeth said with a smile. She followed the young woman into the armory and gasped at the amount of weapons and armor on display. “This is amazing…”

"Ah, seems like an interesting subject." Hadley answered to the man.

Rowan walked towards the man after waving at the girl. "Have a good day then sir!" She smiled and continued doing her chores. Once the man came into view, Rowan could feel the same sense of unease wash over him like a wave crashing down. His gut was telling him that it may not be a good idea to come towards the man in his corner space.

[Check inventory]

Jack
The girl smiled and took off a simple bracelet from her wrist. A leather cord with a conch charm on it as well as a small crystal that's seemed to shimmer and change colours. "Blow on this conch if you are stuck between water and use this crystal to shine some light on your quest." She said and gave it to Jack. She hopped off the stool and walked off without another word.

• Add to inventory
• Check inventory
• Go outside
• Find the others

Lady Elspeth
Melissa gestured to the rack on her right. "Here are some of the best crafted swords in the kingdom. We have spears and small knives also crafted. Some have special hilts while others are simple. Many of the smaller weapons are easily concealed in clothing." She said and walked forward. Against a wall stood many suits of armour. "These are for the top knights and generals of our army. These atent what you will he wearing. You will have a simple armour, a chest plate, shield, some sturdy boots, and the optional helmet." She walked to a place where four suits like the ones she described were laid out. "You may choose whichever then go choose weapons." She said

After grabbing weapons, where would you like to go next?

• Kitchen, for rations
• Library, for research
• Check inventory

Hadley
The man smiled in response and gestured to the book. "The prince doesnt write in it any more, would you like the book? I only use it to add to my research." He explained

• Accept the book and go back down
• Accept the book and stay
• Decline the book and go back down
• Decline the book and stay
• Check inventory (new)

Rowan
Welcome to the inventory!

67 gold prices
34 silver pieces
15 bronze pieces
Some bits of jewelry
A ravens feather
An apple
A thin cloak/blanket

You have a total space of 30 thing. Each type of currency: gold, silver, bronze, counts as three separate items. Anything you have in your hand or you are using does not count as part of your inventory. Small concealable weapons will take up as many spaces in your inventory as are weapons.
