There's nothing more in the Stone Garden except the bloodied corpses of the two loudmouthed norsemen. Where will the rogues go next to demonstrate more dastardly deeds?

[Scubacarrot]

"Onward! More dastardly deeds shall be demonstrated in the Grove of the Forgotten!"

Edited by Scubacarrot, 30 May 2012 - 05:38 PM.

[Sandy]

The rogues return to the Grove of the Forsaken where they encountered Count Shadeaux on the previous night. Now it was occupied by a suspicious fellow dressed in gaudy purple. His entire body was composed of green ooze, making his movements fluid and bendy.

"Ah, more cushtomersh! Have you boysh come to browshe my waresh? I asshure you that Shlim Yshcum offersh only the finesht tripsh to the shubconshcious. And of courshe the firsht batch is free of charge. Wanna shee what I've got?"

The slimy man looked at the party expectantly.

[Scubacarrot]

"Let me see."

[Darth Nihilus]

Dak's eyes flash red as he says, "I'll try as well."

[Scubacarrot]

Guts pulls Dak aside and says softly:

"Kid, I suggest you don't 'try' his stuff until we know what it is."

[Sandy]

"You'll like what I've got, you can be shure about that..." the shady slimebag slurred. "Sho, what can I get ya? Remember, you get one item for free."

SLIM YSCUM’S HAPPY PILLS:
Seventh Heaven – Causes the hastened- and encouraged-effects, but also the fragile- and poisoned-effects. Costs 20 gold.
Double Rainbow – Causes the encouraged- and lucky-effects, but also the confused- and poisoned-effects. Costs 30 gold.
Pixie Dust – Causes the hastened- and lucky-effects, but also the weakened- and poisoned-effects. Costs 40 gold.

[Scubacarrot]

Guts takes out Lifestealer out of his sheath, and with one smooth movement, puts it at dealer's throat.

"I suggest you quit your business. People have died because of your stuff, if needs be, you'll be the last to join them."

[Sandy]

Scubacarrot, on 31 May 2012 - 06:15 PM, said:

"I suggest you quit your business. People have died because of your stuff, if needs be, you'll be the last to join them."

The drug dealer is surprised by Guts' reaction, but then grins at him.


"Aww come on! I'm only anshwering to the demandsh of my cushtomersh! I'm not shoving my productsh down anyone'sh throatsh. People jusht come back begging for more, and why would I want to dishappoint them? Thish city ish a cruel place, a nightwalker shuch as yourshelf should known that well. I'm only offering a brief eshcape from it. What'sh sho wrong about that? Jusht try my shtuff yourshelf and you'll shee exactly what I'm talking about..."

[Scubacarrot]

Guts pricks his sword a tiny bit deeper in the dealer's throat.

"Don't try that on me, fool. Your drugs don't make anyone's life better, no matter what you or your customers tell themselves. Leave your stuff, and get out of here, if I ever see you dealing again, you'll be sorry."

[Sandy]

Slim Yscum turns to the other two rogues.


"Do the pair of you agree with your friend here? If thish noble thief thinksh he'sh too good for my productsh, maybe we can continue dishcusshing bushinessh without him."

[The Legonater]

Look, we've already got enough on you to have you tried for manslaughter, if not worse. This is not the road you want to go down. You really do not want to sell us these happy pills. You want to go home and rethink your life. The alternative could be bad, I'm afraid.

OOC: Sorry for not being around. I've come down with something, and it might be sometime before I'm totally over it.

"Tried?! You can put me on a trial ash shoon ash you find a court hall in Eubric, haha! I apologize, I did not guessh you were foreignersh, sho the cushtoms of our city musht be shtrange to you. Thish is a city of cutthroatsh where only the shtrong shurvive. Not even thoshe pompoush asshes at Heroica can change that. If you aren't intereshted in my pillsh, you better move one.

"Hahaha! I shee you haven't met a Phlegman before. Go ahead, shlit my throat. You'll regret it - briefly."

[Scubacarrot]

Guts' voices turned from the usual with a slight hint at cynicism to a low pitched, cold voice, in the quiet night, it did not sound good.

"This blade is laid in with an magic gem that gives it the power of ice, you know. You would think that would be inconvenient, blood would freeze and stick on, blunting the blade. But the blood is... sucked into the blade, as though the blade itself drinks. The result is a weapon that is dangerous to any kind of foe. Even if you don't bleed to death, It will freeze the... tissue around the area, and it will not be pleasant."

[Sandy]

"You ashked for thish!" the drug dealer hissed.
