MARISHA: I get sauced.
MATT: All right, well, that being the case–
LIAM: –you are poisoned.
MATT: No, make a constitution saving throw.
SAM: Well, that was crazy. 12.
MATT: 12, okay. You get a little woozy for a
while, and as the sun begins to crawl towards the
distant horizon, you do not manage to allow your
meal to usurp your control.
LAURA: Aw, it’s like Ren Faire.
MATT: Yeah. Don’t remind me.
MARISHA: Good times, good times.
MATT: So as the day comes to a close, you’re
fairly tipsy, you’re not fully intoxicated. For
your trip, you wanted to head to the Hillsbrook
Parchment and Binding.
LIAM: Is that where I went the last time? Except
not as myself. So I’ll go as myself.
MATT: Okay. Go ahead and make an investigation
check.
LIAM: All right. Don’t fuck me, Vax. That is–
LAURA: That’s Vax. That’s Vax’s dice.
LIAM: Yeah, the thing about even a light German
accent is that when you say “Vex” and “Vax”, it’s
the same shit.
(laughter)
LIAM: That is a 12.
MATT: 12. You take the better part of 30 minutes
or so, and you find there’s a lot of books on
farming techniques. There’s a lot of books about
how to grow, care for different types of
vegetation, plants, various beasts of burden. You
find books on the different seasons and what’s
best for different types of grain and wheats. You
manage to pull through and find a couple of books
that deal with discussion of the Menagerie Coast
that talk about what’s called the Clovis Concord.
It’s more of a discussion of the political
structure that maintains all the city-states there.
LIAM: And the person who ran this place was an
older man, right? Just sipping tea.
MATT: Yeah, Sheenah, yeah.
LIAM: I’m sorry. You have a nice selection here.
Do you mind if I ask– I haven’t seen any other
booksellers of any kind in town. I’m not really
looking for anything on farming, so much. Is there
anywhere else I could look into?
MATT: “If you’re looking for some sort of a
library, your best bet is to go to Zadash up north.”
LIAM: Zadash.
MATT: “That’s where the Library of the Cobalt Soul
resides. They have all the information you could
"hope for. A bit pricey to peruse their interior,
unless you have proper coverage, but unfortunately
"if what we have isn’t what you’re looking for, I
can’t help you.”
LIAM: No, it’s a fine selection. Sorry. How much
for this book on hoe technique?
MATT: “Oh! Jamieson’s Hoedown, yes, quite. That
will be two silver pieces.”
LIAM: Oh. I’m very embarrassed, I’m sorry, I gave
away my last two silver pieces.
