You pulled David off the counter and tried to calm him down.
“David, calm yourself, your targets are the monsters, not the one terrorized by them.”
“The harlot is aligned to them, let me bleed his truth out. I shall read his entrails if necessary.”
“Sure, but let me try first.”
He seemed to calm down a bit after that so you began your interrogation.
“Look at my friend David here. He's practically frothing at the mouth at the chance to purge monsters and such.
Deny such zealotry will do you nothing but harm, so why don't you tell us what happened?”
The man sighted, then looked out the window to something you could not see.
“I don’t know how it started, I was just a traveler that got stuck in this town.
If you try to leave you will walk in circles and end up back here.
As far as I know, the Witch in the woods did this.”
He took another gulp from his bottle.
“And as you can imagine, a town without good crops or trade can’t survive, so we make deals with her.
Offering what we can scrape by in exchange of essentials.
She accepts everything. If you offer enough to her she will let you leave this cursed place.”
“How did she do it? And why?” you asked a bit intrigued.
“How? No one is sure. The why… I think she just wants to be entertained, the only one that has spoken to her is the priest.
and he won’t tell anything. He is the worst of us, but it’s not personal, we just want to escape.”
“I understand, we are here on an expedition, we are simply ahead of our escorts.
I'm sure they will want drinks, and will be strong enough to lend a hand.”
“I’m sorry.” He said looking down.
[“Soulless” trait activated, there’s been an attempt to put you to sleep by magical means.]
You suddenly feel nauseous; the world spins for a few seconds.
When you return to your senses you see David out cold on the floor.
Emilia was helping Ghal up.
“Please, we don’t want to kill you. Just let us offer you to her.” The bartender said.
You looked back at him.
He was holding a mace and you could hear people come inside the bar.
Looking around there are only four of them, all equipped with leather armor and swords.
They seem frail but experienced.
The priest is among them, with a serious expression and holding a book in his hands.
