Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”
((How do you respond?))
Example: My gaze remains locked with the hag's, unwavering. "My family was lost to the wars, and I was raised by elderly kin who taught me patience and wisdom. Yet, my heart burns with a desire for more—more than just surviving." My eyes take note of the floating candles. "I seek guidance, old one. Teach me the arcane, the hidden truths, so that I may rise to my true potential." "So, tell me," He says, his voice calm but insistent. "What must I do to gain your wisdom?"
