“..In truth, I have not had any trouble with the retrieval of grave goods for my father’s wares. This.. excursion, is one of many.” The doll speaks carefully. “My duty is to follow adventurers and await their deaths.

She may follow and plunge her knife into your corpses if she wishes.>Offer her the chance to continue her journey past the end of this block and leave her father behind.>Write-In.
