-"Good choice miss, i'll get fetch one for you..."
-"Oh and you wont be remebering this conversation and my face for that matter too."

Some time passes... you are currently asleep and expiriencing a dream that may or may not have illicit content in it...

But let put that aside for now... what is your name?

pi, cheery pi

also that dream is totally illicit

Based purely on choices of actual pie: blueberry is better than cherry.

Although those look more like cake than pie. In which case the fruit is just a topping anyways.

Name?
Petra Finnegan.

---> Make up a story about Petra's past

I had an affair with dangerous wizard's husband. We met at a bar and I thought he was single. That did not end very well.

I smelled like smoke for a week after escaping her maze dungeon. Got some good loot, like a rod of ice missile and boots of charisma +1. I sold them for this hat, which increases my luck +3. At least that's what the vendor said. But whatever it's my favorite hat anyway. I got some decent gold from the trade as well so I just bought a lot of my favorite foods.

I've also bought a bunch a weed when I was a teenager from an asshole wholesaler trying to start my own weed racket. That also did not end well.

I lost three tooths when I was in their basement dungeon, and got them healed back in by a dentist wizard. Who was, coincidentally, the father of the dangerous wizard before. I escaped with my ingenuity, a broom, a fisherman's hook, a bucket, and a rocket launcher.

well once when I was younger I missed the bus home from work so I had to walk, and being young and impatient I was cutting though alleyways and things and of course ended up running into some muggers. They did that whole, "give us your money and we won't hurt you" speech but the only words I heard were "hurt you" so I grabbed a trash can that was nearby and threw it at the closest guy and managed to knock him on his ass. The second of the two got mad and ran towards me only to slip on a banana peel that fell out of the trash can I threw not a moment earlier and ended up landing on his face and the pipe he was using as a weapon fell from his hands and ended up rolling straight at my feet. By this time the guy I hit with the trash can was starting to get up and I saw him pulling something from his coat. So before I even realized it I grabbed the pipe, ran over to the guy and as he drew whatever it was he grabbed from his coat I swung the pipe as hard as I could and hit his hand holding the thing. All I know is that it was metal from the glint I cough of it as it want airborne but my focus was on the goon in front of me so I followed up with another swing that got him right in the jaw and knock him out flat, then I heard the other guy behind me and on complete reflex turned and swung the pipe again and ended up hitting the guy right across the head knocking him out as well. After that I kind just dropped the pipe and left before more guys showed up.

Petra ask him to tell about his share of adventures he must have had before, on wich Munch replied that there is nothing much to talk about...
Until about the month ago, he never left the Order's Sanctuary... so he is not as well versed on the things that happens outside secure walls of the sanctuary, and he feel sorry for that...

we won't kick it very hard, just enough to look badass and save the little guy because apparently an adorable little guilible stranger is worth going out of our way to save him in suspicious circumstances.

Re-check the stalls while the lighter is on.

think it's obvious the red thing did it somehow. we need a priest or somethin to handle this.

ok so when everything isn't blue is where the red flame is a mirror? maybe someone cast the spell on the little guy through the mirror, well either that or they set a trap up for the little guy and where pinning a lot of hope he'd stop by here and use the mirror specifically.

you probably want to stay away from the body so they don't yell at you for contaminating the crime scene

Do not mention the book or the Lighter to the police. This little guy had enemies and who knows if the police are in on it or really police.

Just say you were eating and talked to the little guy for a few minutes. Then we went to the bathroom and did not come back for awhile so you got worried he had slipped and hit his head or something.

Petra could spend her night at:

You should probably head home.

Swing by the bar to see if anything new pops up tomorrow, or Head to the church to find the poor guy's Brothers. They ought to know more about the book and lighter.

Exceeeeept.... the police took your id. Supposing that the police are bugged or corrupt, now the bad guys probably know where you live, and are going to try to shank you in the night.

Though, I guess they could just follow you.

Sooo...why is it that you keep putting "quotes" and underlines on things to do with the "church"? Seems..."suspicious". Like maybe it's not a church, but a "church". Maybe such an establishment would be experienced in what to do when certain people are "upset with you"....
