The players had finally defeated the second wave of skeletons attacking the city and were given a half an hour break. However, the peace was short-lived as rumors began to spread about a guard NPC selling poisoned potions.
The players quickly sprang into action, buying potions from every NPC in an effort to uncover the culprit.
Their efforts paid off when they discovered the guard responsible for the poisoned potions. The NPC, realizing he had been caught, took his own life by biting down on his tongue before the other guards could even question him.
Although the players had caught the culprit, the damage had been done. The players were now on edge, warily eyeing the other guards and some even opting to buy potions from the merchant NPCs hiding in the bunkers instead.
Amidst the chaos, a reward was delivered to the highest contributor of the second wave. Ava, who had single-handedly killed hundreds if not thousands of skeletons, was unsurprisingly the recipient.
