Hello? The difference between every sibling is pretty monstrous. We couldn't stand a chance even against Raital, who could never beat Taikah, and so on. And here there's the youngest facing the oldest.

...Who doesn't seem all that tough, really. But still. No fucking chance in a lifetime.

Mudy let's go of the hand with one hand, plummeting down onto Mr. M. He slaps the hat back on.

Where there's a healer. Middle class district most likely and if this revolution is fought from ale houses there's the prancing pony nearby.

Whatever's most expedient, Lu-Lu's probably gonna survive that attack.

Our next priority should be getting you to a healer as soon as possible.

If I may:

"We need to get you help, but we need to find somewhere that will hide us from my Brother. We also need to consider innocent bystanders - yes I know I'm being ironic - so we might have to ditch him in an abandoned area and THEN move to a more populated one."

Head inside and just ask for some healing potions and salve. If anyone asks, tell them you have a really sick mother waiting back home.

>"Luhra-Luhra..? Ugh-- Landing anywhere won't be safe with the m.. martial law!"
Mudy ponders for a moment, then suggests that the Prancing Pony might be the closest and hopefully provide healer services.
Without as much of a nod Mr M starts a dazzling crashlanding. They end up in the back of the inn, which is many times larger than the Stinky Armpit.
Mr M sits between a few crates and barrels, breathing heavily.
>"Ugh.. Ngh-- D-don't look at me like that, Scarlet. My father lived through worse than this. Ugh-- Listen-- It'd be unwise to go out and announce that there's an injured man outside. The last thing we want is draw attention to ourselves. Nnhh... I.. I'll be fine here for a while. I just.. I just have to.. close my eyes and rest for a moment.."

Option: Go search for healing supplies

Option: Seek guidance from the Fey. Perhaps she can hint us in the right direction to healing magic?

Option: Stay by his side. Though suspicious, he's an obvious ally, and one that has survived getting peppered by large stakes.

Hmm. That's all I've got.

Take the dude's hat. "I'll bring it back!"

Go inside and look around for some kinda potion of healing to buy. Say you're an adventurer, and you need one for your adventure.

"Your a Strong and courageous man, you know that? I mean, I've never seen anything like that... ever." Quickly, find a cloak nearby or sheet to cover him with, disguise him as a hobo and notify him of the disguise if he has any objections. I get this isn't exactly the low class section where hobos would be prevalent, but it'll get Luhra off his tail at least.

Mudy takes Mr M's hat, instead covering him in a nearby rag.
>"You're a strong and courageous man, you know that? I mean, I've never seen anything like that... ever."
Mr M grumbles.
>"One does what needs to be done. Nnhh.."
Mudy asks if he knows if he can trust anyone inside.
>"With the Claw tightening its grip I doubt anyone wants much to do with mysterious injuries.. nnh.. We may have to look to the other side of the law.. Perhaps you'll find some shady business going on inside-- nghh- Dealing with criminals loyal to coin is better than dealing with soldiers loyal to their swords."

Mudy discretely enters through the back door. He appears to be unnoticed.
The Prancing Pony is large and filled with many more people, but their conversations are gentle and polite. The room holds nowhere near the chaos of the Stinky Armpit.

Avoid black robes. There's unfortunately many on this level so upstairs it is.

Yes, stay away from black robes, but eye the lass with much detail. She must be a demon.

Mudy eyes the woman in the black robe. She does indeed look rather lonely and out of place.

He continues upstairs to find three men at a table.

"No, I'm afraid not.

Hint AS HARD AS YOU FUCKING CAN that this hat is significant, and hope that he recognizes it.

But before Mudy takes his seat, he asks if he may sit somewhere without his back facing them mirror.

Put up all but two of your coins before you take the cards. "I'll start off small."

and then draw four cards.

No. 53198 ID: e3f578

Draw the cards and make idle conversation and say this if you can see a woman under the hat since those look like earrings. "So... what is a beautiful woman such as yourself be doing with such a beautiful hat? I hear some pointy hands from above like those hats. My friend who gave me this one needs another good friend right now could use some help with his fashion shopping. His clothes have been very torn recently by a scuffle and sure could use such a friendly, ambitious, and competitive face."
