An honest question, do you know what species you are? Have you seen any others of your kind in this town?

Also check the status of the kitchen.

If that helmet is smaller than your father's cranium, and the mallet is light enough for you to lift, then perhaps they are meant for you. Your father fought in a war, and likely expected such of you as well.

Donning the helmet does not look to be a viable course of action, your own head is too skinny for it; the only method by which it would fit is if you could attach straps to hold it on (the excess width is only enough to keep it loose).
>>565765
To reach the booze room, one must travel through the kitchen, after all.

it seems to be coming from either the top left or the top right doorway. follow the sting. don't dillydally. you gott clear it out fast, man.

top right door

>>565761
The small helmet might have belonged to a forgetful guest.. or someone that's inside right now.

>>565797
The door in the top left is the entrance. The miasma is depleting out of it.
Keep watch of the map. >>565046

to the kitchen, then the booze room. Once we get rid of the miasma we can maybe look for Ludwig.

Lykke enters kitchen

Stench intensifies...

Ok, well, deep breath before rushing in and trying to fix whatever you see.

get low to the ground as this stuff seems to like staying high, take a deep breath and then lets see what the damage is... and since you're in the kitchen maybe find some kind of container to hold some of whatever is making this smell so if we ever need to run away from someone we would have a stink/smoke bomb to aid in our escape.

onwards ho!

>onwards ho!

Lykke takes a deep breath and enters sacred booze room...
-"UGHHHH!!!"
Misma is still too potent in here, even staying close to the ground makes a little difference.

Lykke recives toxic damage...

slam the lid shut and get out of there.

also you were supposed to just hold your breath in this room. not breathe at all.

>>565863
I don't think he's inhaling at all. I think he's getting toxic damage just from being in here.

The miasma is even stronger near the open lid, so there's no way you'll be able to get close enough to close it by hand. You'll need a pole or something similar to knock it closed. If the mallet has enough reach use that. Otherwise retreat and close the door to this room if there is a door.

Is there a lid or cover for that glass jar under the drain spigot? Because if there is then at some point you might be able to drain some of the foul concoction off, seal it, and use it as a stink bomb in an emergency.

>>565865
>use it as a lethal poison in an emergency
FTFY :3

Also, if you can't close the thing without significant risk, retreat hastily.

>>565860
Oh just get out of there, we can't fix that.

Find Ludwig.

Oh god quick, use the mallet to hook the lid and close the damn thing before it kills us all. Then check the basement for Ludwig.

Maybe turning on the tap will let some of the death ooze out, and then you could throw out a jar's worth? Either way grab the jar, jars always come in handy.

I don't know how much HP you got. if it's at least a hundred, close the lid. otherwise, just run out.

-"well pop's amassed a lot of junk here from days of his youth... i can take all of it with me... and it will take all day to search through this pile for something useful (unless i know exactly what to look for)"

At the moment, I would suggest looking for a net. >>565759 You've amassed a decent sized collection of items, suitable for a variety of things, but nothing to entrap a person. A net or a light, hollow box & stick would be a good idea to carry around.

A lamp or some other light source. Unless you can see in the dark like a dwarf.

something to help you recover from the poison damage you received when you had to face the miasma. That and money, it would be nice if we could buy something at some point. When you're down go down the hole and see if we can't find Ludwig... and maybe leave a note for your father saying you may be out of town for a few days because of reasons and also you think Ludwig ran away so you went to look for him. Oh and PS for the love of god don't open the brewer without some kind of gas mask.

>>567883
A dagger would be useful. You'd have to drop something for it though, or pick up a small bag to carry things in.

Before we go, is there anywhere in the house you haven't looked? I mean, you found evidence that someone else was here. It'd be best to find out if they still are.

Lykke scavenge for net in the pile of basement junk... after a few moments... success here it is -Pop's fishing net-

Lykke still have one free slot in his inventory... for what he should search now?

A)Lamp or some sort of light source (cuz you dont have eye's of the dwarf)
B)Some sort of medicine (sweet if possible)
C)Weapon (it's dangerous to go alone)
D)Rope (good for descending as well as ascending)
E)Towel (always know where your towel is...)
X)Dragon dildo (... heck if know why whould you need that!!!)

drop the TP and the helm and devour the candy.

definitely get a rope and a dagger.

dragon dildos can be used as daggers, right?

>>567975
You'd be surprised how useful a dragon dildo can be. Wave one around at someone and I guarantee they'll think twice about approaching you.

...don't take the dragon dildo. Get a rope, we'll just use the mallet for a weapon.

Better idea--eat the candy, then take both the rope and the dragon dildo. You don't know how useful those things can be when situations turn sour.

Take the Dragon Dildo, do you know how territorial and solitary dragons are those things are nearly priceless to them, we'll need it if we ever stumble across one and don't want to be eaten.

Drop the toilet paper and the helmet then get a lamp, you can use the mallet as a weapon and now you have 2 free inventory slots in the case you find something.

>3+ votes for taking the dildo
god I love this website.
but yeah, eat the candy and take the dong along, yo.

If you can't find any sweet medicine, you could melt the candy and mix the medicine into it, free up a slot that way for another item. Otherwise, you may just want to take some medicine right now and save the rest for later.

As for the last remaining slot, the hammer will be a bit unwieldy for you, try and find some sort of dagger, or perhaps a light-but-sturdy club of some sort. Even a whip might be useful for you.

Good, he's appears to be sleeping, his sides slowly rise in tact with his breathing... he must have clogged up in this hole while escaping from spreading miasma upstairs, smart boy :D

So Ludwig is a sheep? Try calling his name to wake him up, and what does he eat? Since your job was to feed him.

Well what are you waiting for, rouse your companion and be reunited.

Wake him up, have a happy reunion. Is he stuck, or can he get out by himself?

Lykke
-"fresh blue thunder grass and lighting clovers... they grow only on the west side of Torden mountain"

That dripping water has me a bit nervous...try to get Ludwig safely unstuck and out of the hole as soon as you can. It wouldn't be good to have done all you have just to be stuck in a cave-in or something.

Put on the helmet and try to convince Ludwig that you are pops to coax him out.

Well go buy some from the market then
I surely doubt you Dad expected you to go out and pick up that grass by hand, he probably left some money for you on the counter to feed ludwig and yourself.

I imagine you work for him too, so it's probably a month's pay plus more for Ludwig.

Just get a disguise. Your Dad probably shave's Ludwig and stores his wool somewhere, you could probably pass as a skinny dwarf with poofy hair. Or a skinny man.
As long as it isn't you.

or we can just.. GO to torden mountain.

Wield the hammer and don the helmet, put on your gruffest voice possible. "Come, now, Ludwig, get out of there before it caves in."

I don't supposed you'd have any sheep food in that garage would you?

And by garage I mean basement

his breed is named after shitty beer? damn, might as well leave him here.

although, there might be something behind him. try tying him with a rope or the net and pulling him out from outside the hole where you can get some decent leverage.

Check around the house for some of his food, I doubt your pops went on an epic trek to the mountains every day to feed a sheep.

There is a one sack of blue thunder grass and clovers mix... from the looks of it miasma didnt affect it.

Ready a bowl in the basement for his meal, and scatter a few clovers into the hole to try and lure him out.

Yeah make a food lure and then get ready to block the hole with a box or a chair so that Ludwig can't get back in there.

Is that a chewing toy bone for the sheep on the floor?

Also start hunting for cleaning supplies.

Try to settle this dislike of Ludwig while you're at it. Once word gets around and more people start looking for you, this fluffy bastard may be your only companion for a bit.

>start hunting for cleaning supplies.

-"Oh, to clean the machine in booze room... something tells me to wont be such an easy task. First i need some kind of protection from miasma clogged up inside, or the way to rid of it. How should i go about it?"

Gas mask. Alternatively, an air hose snaked somewhere to get fresh air. Or an oxygen tank if there is such a thing. Also keep in mind Ludwig will probably try to hide again when the miasma is released during the cleaning, so wait until he's done eating and put him somewhere the miasma can't get to.

Then I suppose you'll want to uh... I don't know, what cleaning supplies do you even have? Also did you catch a glimpse of what's rotting? If it's liquid you'll have to treat it until it stops smelling then empty it somehow. It's not like you can soak it up with a sponge.

That tank has a valve on the bottom of it right?Maybe get a hose and siphon the muck out into the gutter?

Do you think your pops would have any protective gear around the house for moments like this?

While you search, remember what your situation is right now--you just broke out of jail and there may soon be an increasing number of people looking for you. Be ready to stop what you're doing and find a way to escape if any guards come near the house.

get some miasma-goop into a jar to be used as a gas bomb.

not a bad idea
a miasma bomb sounds like it might come in handy
especially with people looking for you

You could find the sewer workers and see if they have any hoses or gas masks. Another possibility is to find the tanner, he must have some way to combat bad smell since his job stinks to high heaven.

Yeah, that sounds about right. Ask him for tips on handling it yourself, but leave the option open for him to do it.

Certainly ask for advice and a mask, but don't request that he does it himself. If he can tell you what to do and show where to get a mask, you could probably use your average plumbing skills and do it yourself, and you wouldn't have to worry about one more person knowing where you've been seen hiding out at and being able to tell a questioning guard about it.

Lykke ask sewer worker dwarf for hose and a gas mask to deal with his "little" miasma problem.

SW
-"meh, sure why not, you can take spare hose with a pump... but the gas mask... only high ranked sewer gardians appointed by the head of the district have right to distribute them."

Lykke
-"uh-huh..."

Do you think you could take the hose and just improvise your own mask at home? Or maybe there's a less legal place to ask for one? I don't think you should go to these sewer gardians for one--they sound a bit high up on the government ladder for someone of your current standing to try interacting with.

Well grab the spare hose and pump before someone else needs them. As for the gas mask ask the worker to direct you to the nearest sewer guardian.

Thank him for letting you use his equipment. Mention that water leak you ran across when you found Ludwig so he can file a maintenance request. Don't want that pipe bursting not only 'cause it'd flood your pa's basement but 'cause it'd cut water off from the Hall of Arms forges.

Drag the hose and pump in and see if you can attach it to the drain on the still. If you can and it's long enough for the output hose to reach deep into a sewer drain you won't even need a gas mask.

Well, maybe you don't need it. If you can pump out the sludge through the tap, the miasma when you open the tank won't be as bad and you can just clean out the residue without a mask.

Ask if there are any specific laws regarding hazardous waste disposal.

First: note that if you pump the sludge with their equipment, you're gonna have to clean it really well or they'll be mighty angry and/or unconscious. Also, the pump...hang on, is it an air pump/hose, or a SEWAGE pump/hose? That changes how you ought to use it.

Second: note that the hole Ludwig got into would be a good place to explore, and potential escape route.

You could probably make your own mask with a bit of sail cloth (fine cloth that has been soaked in wax to catch air), a pair of goggles, and some mashed up charcoal as a filter
