Hither, Tither, and Where are We?...

We find ourselves traveling through the rising waters in Hither. It's hot and humid and getting dark. Violet smells stew in the distance and a large building walks in front of us and stops. This is an inn. It is called the Inn at the End of the Road. There is a woman that hosts us and she explains that they dont use currency but they do trades for services. Her name is Tsu. Violet trades her pixie house for food and a room. Others offer to help clean the inn for food and stay. Toward the end of the night, Violet speaks with her and she suggests a bath. Violet doesnt bath much and decides to do this. She asks Petra and Alya how she smells afterwards. The Inn moves toward the Brigands Tollway. In the morning, she takes out her retainer, gargles her candy liquor, and opens a music box and reads a book. EJ practices his martial arts. Petra reads about spells. We have breakfast and exit onto the Brigands Tollway. EJ fights the famous brigand, Agdon Longscarf, on the tollway. He barely wins. We head to Downfall and see a lot of frog monsters. We assist a man in catching some fire coals that are burning his house down. They are lil mischievous things. There are so many bullymogs talking on pikes along a bridge. We see the scarecrow guide we are supposed to meet and he wants his head in return. We agree. Then we go to meet the noble here and become nobles with the exchange that we have to take a book to the hag.
 
Rule of Hospitality. When a friend, an enemy, or a stranger enters your home, you are expected to be gracious and accommodating to them until such time as they prove, by their words or actions, undeserving of such hospitality.
Rule of Ownership. You must not steal from a friend, an enemy, or a stranger. To take something that doesn’t belong to you without the rightful owner’s permission is a crime and an unforgivable breach of etiquette.
Rule of Reciprocity. When a friend, an enemy, or a stranger offers you a gift, you are obliged to accept it and offer something of comparable value (be it a gift or a service) in return. Such reciprocation need not happen immediately.
