Track 1: Doll Parts

General Summary

The Ladies, Areia and Rilla, went straight to a job board and found a listing for the family with mysterious noises and a farmer's bounty on the a grimlock. The grimlock has appeared from underground and is eating sheep that stray from their farm. They originally plan to just wait around for the night job at the house but eventually work out to check on the house early to let the family know they took the job.
They speak with the mother of the family and find a loose panel in the son's window. They soon leave to go to the forest, thinking it's some kind of child stealing monster or a ghost.
They go into the forest and are attacked by flying snakes that infest the forest. Continuing to a ring shaped stone ruin, likely remains of some long forgotten mill or tower, the grimlock is holed up. They sneak up on him and decapitate the grimlock after a quick combat exchange.
After taking the head to a local lodge to collect their bounty, they stop at a general store. The pretext is for Rilla to show Areia where to get good health potions but the reality is the cashier, Zeke, is a 10/10. Rilla tries putting the moves on him but it's not working out. They end up not having enough money for a potion, but are able to convince Zeke to let them pay half now and the rest later.
The go back to the family house to discover an animated doll trying to undo the window. The ladies told the mother about the loose board earlier so she nailed it down during the day. The doll sees the women and takes off running but they catch up easily and cut it in half. A tiny mote of white light floats out of the cotton and flies away out of sight.
They take the doll pieces back to the family and have a talk about it. The parents don't recognize it so they ask their small son, Pelleo who says it belongs to a girl he plays with at the playground, Yoana. Rilla notices the boy holding a toy horse so she convinces the parents to give Areia some water for the chase while she speaks with the kid.
She asks the boy what the horses name is and he says "Truck", but the word Flower is clearly carved into its side. Through careful questioning she finds out the boy stole the toy horse from the same girl because he doesn't have any toys. She convinces the boy if he gives her the horse to return to the girl, she will bring him a new toy. He agrees and the party leaves with the horse and doll.
The ladies begin a plan to visit the playground the next day and spit to their respective inns.
