Encounter Conditions

Initial Text

That hut… that strange hut makes its way across the landscape with even strides.

The landscape is wrong too. Perhaps you were distracted for a moment by the life-sized hut with over-sized chicken legs making its way through your field of vision… in fact, that seems quite likely, but the landscape reminds you of distant lands, the sorts you only see in television shows.

Rational people would turn their backs on this obvious hallucination, but reason has not been your most sterling guide of late.

Summary of Choices

  1. Climb aboard - Gain ancient mortar and pestle, or with the mortar equipped learn instances of Pestle Surprise
  2. Watch it pass - Gain 5 XP in both Perception and Will
  3. Leave it be - Walk Away

Leave it be
