Day 1, Evening: A Random Encounter In Terminal Y
Okay Cinder, you buy the second of Freddy 5's magic robes. Cinder, those 'high-end' shops you heard about are apparently in terminals A and Z, unless you consider Footlocker and Make-a-Bear to be high end. If you're interested, though, the leather goods store has some nice stuff. A magic saddle that makes your horse +1 (300 gp). +1 leather (500 gp), and a sweet +2 leather jacket that has a big 'Tasmanian Devil' from Looney Tunes looking all badass in a bandana, kind of boriquo'd out, and in graffiti letters it says "
ORIGINAL THUGG" (1500 gp). There's some leather pants of +1 CHA (400 gp), and a backpack of holding (300 gp). And if you roll that way, there's a DeBeers with a magic diamond ring for sale that's guaranteed to sex up any lady you give it to, on sale now for 500 gp.
With your WIS check, you notice a lot of shady people going in and out of the food court bathrooms. Smells like $$$.
The quest for the library carries you back through M, O, H, G, F, then up into terminal Y. Terminal Y becomes a bit odd.
As you walk into the new terminal, there's a large mural painted on the wall of a rainforest, and in big colorful letters, it reads
Save the Rainforest!
But rather suddenly, the terminal itself becomes an enormous rainforest, complete with dripping water, mosquitos, and enormous trees. It's quite dark here. Regardless, there's still a bunch of creatures all hanging out, apparently waiting for their 'flights', or just whatever it is everyone seems to be
doing here, or at least
waiting for. But instead of undead, or men and elves and stuff, it's a lot of forest creatures, some gorillas, a pack of lizard men, a druid snoozing in the middle of the path.
As you walk through the terminal, trying to stick to the path, looking for one of those information desks, a carbunkle comes up to you. "
Hey buddy," it says quietly. "
I bet you don't know how much my gem is worth. Well, it's a lot." It looks at you expectantly.
