| Mokti says, "Hello! Welcome to
Swamp Edge City. My name is Mokti!" |
| You say, "What can you tell me
about this area?" |
Mokti says, "Well, this is Swamp
Edge City, as I said... not a very creative name, since we're right
on the edge of the Great Swamp. Thankfully the creatures that live
out there don't come very far out of the swamp itself, so we're safe
here. There's not a whole lot of people who live here, really, so
there's not much to tell... to the south are some grasslands and then
the Desert of Roo. I once went into the Desert of Roo to see if I
could get to the other side, but even though I was well-provisioned
with food and water, after three days of crossing the sands, there
was no end in sight, so I turned back. I've heard that there are some
mountains and forests south of the desert, but the desert could go
on forever for all I know." |
| You say, "Can you
tell me more about the desert?" |
Mokti says, "Well, sure. It's... well, it's
a desert. Lots of sand and rock and nasty creatures. There weren't
so many when I tried to cross it, but since then I've heard that
it's overrun with giant critters and horrible undead fiends. Which
is too bad, because I was trying to collect some things from there,
but now it's too dangerous."
|
You say, "What were you collecting?" |
Mokti says, "Well,
I've always been interested in lizards and snakes and spiders and
other kinds of creepy-crawlies, and with the rumors of giant beasties
out there... well, let me just say that I'd love to be able to get
a closer look at them. Dead, of course. What I'm looking for is a
leg and a pincer from some of the huge spiders, a desert cobra fang
-- watch out, they're poisonous -- and an iguana's eye. If you can
bring me all that, I'll give you this old hunk of junk generator here.
I don't need it." |
