>>5746907An odd smell awaits Riptide at the unmarked door in the back alley. This place appears like the employee entrance of any small restaurant in the city: a heavy locked door, nearby dumpsters, milk crates, and unidentifiable stains on the concrete. There's just something different about the smell. Something familiar.
The Chef invites you inside. He's been looking for resourceful fellows like you. He's looking for help procuring certain specific ingredients for his art.
The Chef's [Ingredient Hunt] prep work has been unlocked.

The mysterious invitation claims to offer guidance to those unsure of their fate. It leads Napps to a block of cramped storefronts in the back streets of Havanatown. Nestled in a hidden nook, so obscure he almost misses it while specifically looking for it, Napps find an opaque glass door. There's no details or hours of operation, only a simple script: Madame Zara.
The door opens easily under your hand, as though it was meant to open. Inside you find a dark room lit by candles, thick with the smell of fragrant incense. A woman of ambiguous age and origin sits at a low table, laying out cards. A sitting cushion and a cup of tea are already set out for you.
Madame Zara's [Tarot Reading] prep work has been unlocked.
