Back to work, but I'm finally back in the quiet mall where I can chill out and go wandering for Wok Box on my lunch break. Mornings remain ick, and the cold and rain aren't helping.
The boots fit perfectly and walking about you feel very sure-footed. They are magical elven boots. Add 1 Skill point to your total and set off east again.
You arrive at a four-way junction in the street. The street continuing east changes its name to Clock Street and the street running north and south is called Market Street. Looking north you see a crowd of people walking up the street cheering loudly and waving their arms in the air. You decide to follow them.
As you catch up with the chanting crowd, you see that they are carrying eggs and rotten tomatoes. Soon the street opens out into a large market square. All round the edge are stalls with vendors, hawkers, musicians and entertainers carrying on their business. In the middle of the square is an elevated pillory. Above the noise of the crowd a trumpet sounds and the crowd start to pelt the man in the pillory with rotten food. An old woman standing next to you offers you two eggs to throw. Not wishing to appear to be an outsider, you take the eggs and hurl them. But as you do so, the old woman picks your pocket without you noticing.
Thanks to a convenient loophole, she has only taken your piece of stale bread, huzzah!
Unaware of your loss, you walk away from the crowd to look at the various stalls.
The food stalls are selling fruit, vegetables, meat and hot soup, corn and chestnuts for hungry shoppers. You may eat some hot food if you wish. Pay 1 Gold Piece and increase your Stamina by 2 points. Walking north along the west side of the square you see a man dressed in purple velvet playing a lyre.
