03 | what will you do?
good morning, Retrospec.
today, i'm hosting a choose-your-own-adventure... adventure!
if you would like to play, simply read the rest of my post and reply with your action; i shall supplement all details.
if you don't wish to, then simply keep scrolling.
thank you.
now, without further ado...
===============================================================================================================================
Night has fallen on the sleepy seaside town of Willin' Wisp. The full moon casts her ethereal light on the cobblestone pavement and rough, shanty houses of the area you're in. Once famed for being a rich fishing town, Willin' Wisp has largely fallen into disrepair in the last fifteen years. Those that could fix it do not, enjoying their time eating rare, tropical fish imported from the capital of Helena instead. The town is staying afloat, but only just by the skin of its teeth, thanks to its oil business.
You are standing outside of the town's most famous tavern, though "most famous" makes it sound a little more glorious than simply "the only tavern in town." Inside the tavern, people shout and cheer and are generally incredibly loud, contrasting with the dead quiet that litters the streets.
There are exits to the south, east, and west of you. To the south is the tavern. To the east is one half of Mulberry Lane, which leads to the cemetery, the church, and the docks, where the oil businesses run their businesses. To the west is the rest of Mulberry Lane, which leads to the market, an area that is genuinely booming during the day.

Hoping to uncover these secrets, you traveled here and have yet to make any progress in three days you have already spent in town. The people here are restless and uneasy, making conversation difficult, and they always seem to have something to argue about. This week has been about holidays. Perhaps next week, it will be about fruit costumes. The trends are hard to follow at best, and completely nonsensical at worst.
Though, there are hundreds of other reasons you could be here, if you'd like to make one up instead. Willin' Wisp is an incredibly strange town, after all.

I'm going to go to the market and say something stupid to some arguing people so I'm siding with the quieter one
