The Party
Quick Summary
CW: Cannibalism, Torture, Death
Kharli, SKLE, Azriel, and Cadence all meet up in a tavern, where they promptly learn some information about the town that leads them to the Butcher Shop. When they arrive, they find that there's a path leading out to the forest from the shop, and that the butcher has been doing some deals with someone in the forest because meat has been scarce.
They follow the path, encountering interesting obstacles and beasts, and eventually meet a person in the woods, named Verran. Verran attacks, and then promptly is convinced to talk to them through force. At the end of discussion, Verran runs off.
The group continues on the path and find a cottage, where they uncover some disturbing things, most notably humanoid body parts throughout the house and indications that whoever lives here was selling meat to the butcher in town. They find a hidden passage into the basement, where they meet Guy West and see a changeling person tied up and beaten badly. They fight, killing Guy, and Verran appears later in the fight and is promptly dealt with. They assist the changeling person, who introduces themself as Vex and invites Kharli out into the forest with them at some point as there's a changeling settlement out towards the west. The group heads back to town, where they are paid and praised, and then set off on their different ways.
