"Oh, excellent! I think you will find them so very pleasant and appetizing!" she says. "Please, ask whatever you wish."
"Can you tell me more about this place? Where exactly am I??"
Her expression grows dark. "Oh, this is just a silly little town. Not the place one would want to go for a vacation." She begins laughing at her own joke. "Oh, don't mind me," she says. "It's good that you asked for advice. This place can be very dangerous for those unprepared. You should stick to the road if you plan on travelling farther into the valley. If you take the branch west, it will take you to a city by the name of Vallaki. And to Krezk after that."
"I see," you say. "And where else does the road lead?"
The old woman points up to the castle that looms thousands of feet above the village. "Castle Ravenloft. our Lord's domain."
Something about the castle feels like bad news. "Why did he have to build it that far above the valley?" you ask.
"Oh, just to keep an eye on his subjects, I suppose... He really is not that bad, despite what many of the residents here will say."
"I see," you say, smiling. "I appreciate the help."
"Of course," she says.
"So, what is your name?"
"You can call me Morgantha," she says. "I come here sometimes with my sisters. We live out of town, making coin here and there with our little pastry business." She chuckles.
"That's great," you say. "Business is going well I assume."
"As well as it can be, given the times, I suppose! Hahaha!"
"Yeah... One more thing," you say. "Where can I find the nearest inn?"
She points to the town square. "There's a tavern just up the way."
"Great!"
She reaches under the cloth of the cart and pulls out a small pie.
"How much were these again?"
"One gold piece for a pastry," she says.
