>>5991018>>5991025Stepping into the Twisty Hollow Bakery, you're immediately enveloped by the comforting aroma of freshly baked goods. The shop, filled with levitating pastries and enchanted pies, is a sight to behold. At the center of this culinary wonder floats the baker himself, a jolly loaf of bread with a surprisingly expressive face.
"Welcome, welcome!" the baker greets you, his voice warm but his eyes darting around to ensure privacy. Lowering his tone, he leans in slightly, the air around him tinged with seriousness. "I'm in a bit of a bind, my friend. Some very special ingredients of mine have disappeared—ingredients that are... let's say, not exactly on the list of approved baking supplies in Twisty Hollow."
He pauses, his doughy brow furrowing with worry before his usual cheerful demeanor snaps back. "But the delights they can create! Oh, you've never tasted such wonders!" he exclaims, his voice bubbling with excitement before quickly dropping to a whisper again. "We must be discreet, though. It’s imperative this matter stays hushed, understood?"
The baker surveys the room one last time, ensuring the confidentiality of your conversation, then continues with a hopeful look. "Would you help me recover them? It would be our little secret, and I assure you, the rewards will be deliciously worth it."
You consider your options in this mix of secrecy and sweetness:
