The Beggar's Gossip

event Main Road (Sunken Temple) · Events (all zones)

Main Road At the side of the chamber, you find a beggar who is telling everyone who passes by that he knows the secret entrance the guards use to kidnap people without anyone noticing. The people who pass near him try to avoid eye contact, and the guards seem to ignore him. It is a dangerous topic, and the only reason he may still be alive is because he's either crazy or a liar, but it might be interesting to hear what he has to say. Will you listen to the beggar?

🧍 Tulah only★ XP 32

"The guards let him talk because they know that if they arrest him, someone else will come along saying the same things. They prefer to leave him alone and ignore him, even though what he's saying is true. It also serves as a reminder to the people that the guards commit those despicable acts to appease the Great Bird's bloodlust. We should continue our journey and not worry about him; that man has found safety in his feigned madness. You follow Tulah's advice and continue exploring the temple. It seems Tulah knows what she's doing. You get: XP 32.
