You say hello to the little boy, but he doesn’t look up from his toys. ‘If you are looking for Deep Sea, he’s not here’. The boy says sulkily. ‘But if you give me a wooden brick for my set, I’ll go and fetch him!’. You are amazed by the boy’s cheek and feel like clipping him round the ear. If you have a wooden brick and are willing to give it to the boy, turn to 116. If you do not have a wooden brick or do not wish to give it to the boy, turn to 44.

  • Give the boy a brick
  • Keep your tiny brick as there’s bound to be another reason why you’d need it in future, sure.

If this brick turns out to be the one weapon that can defeat Zagor then so help me.

The boy’s face lights up when you give him the wooden brick. He jumps up and runs off, returning in a few minutes with a rather tubby old man who is chewing on a chicken leg; he is wearing a white apron and seems to be a jolly old soul. ‘Shop’s closed this afternoon’, he says with a smile, ‘but seeing as you gave a present to Deep Sea Junior here, I don’t mind opening up specially for you.’ He opens the door and you follow him into the rather dingy shop; obviously many of the objects have stood here for years, as they are thickly coated with dust. There’s a stuffed bear, some juggling clubs, hoops, large vases, shields, lanterns, boxes, carvings, statutes, paintings, bottles, urns, jars, books, maps, clocks wigs, games, boots and hanks and hanks of different-coloured rope.

‘Excuse the mess’ says Deep Sea, ‘I must get around to clearing the place up one day. But people usually find what hey are after in Deep Sea’s Store, that they do. The King of String they call me! (oh, here we go). Now, how much have you got to spend and what do you want?’

You open Yaztromo’s pouch and empty the content on to the counter top. You count out 15 Gold Pieces and you decide to keep back 5 and spend 10. You ask what might be useful for dungeon exploration and Deep Sea replies ‘Here’s my list of equipment for that kind of foolhardiness. Everything costs 2 Gold Pieces. Choose what you like.’

Why won’t it let us buy the bear?

Two gold pieces for a water bottle? Fuck off, I bet Shallow Sea would sell me one for less.

I feel like an axe might be useful, but the silver dagger is so shiny.

If Livingstone offers you a silver knife you take it. Motherfucker loves silver.

Love to know what @anon89873996 @Parsefone @SenorDingDong @jarvis have planned for the hammer and iron spikes without any rope, TBH

I was going to use them as weapons.

Cant believe no one wants the driving gloves

I’m hoping we find some kind of metal bowl thing in there that we can use as a wok - hammer three iron spikes into the ground in a triangle, rest the metal bowl on them, light a fire underneath, get the garlic on there and start improvising a decent meal.

I’m sure you’re right, it’s just in the field of weapons I feel like the axe or even the dagger sound like better bets.

(The hammer and spike can be used to secure doors tbf)
