I still had some time left before the rest of the party returned. So, yearning for the taste of home, I decided to shop for some supplies.
It proved to be surprisingly challenging to find some good cave mushrooms in this mining town. I have to tell my cousin to start exporting dried mushrooms to Mor when I return home.
I settled for Browncaps and was lucky to find some Rothe meat. It doesn't compare to the Aurochs meat from back home, but it's better than nothing.
As I made my way back to the Master's mansion, I thought about the Duergar. Would the rest of the party have made their way back by now? How would that lass at the temple have responded to seeing a Duergar?
"Not my problem" I thought as I went to open the door. But at that moment I heard the rest of the party coming up the hill.
They'd done it. They had fixed the broken bastard's mind, and now he could talk like a normal person.
How I wished he couldn't.
