[Salone]

Eduardo caught up to Tsaerri and Gambooge, looking rather ruffled at having to expend stamina. Taking a moment to slow his breathing, he raised his hands upwards and twirled slowly, making sure to catch all nearby with his gaze and voice.

"Now, I do not hwish to sound like a prickly bush here, but I do hwish to see more than just...beef in its more primitive state. So I hwish to see something else now. Cows bore me so. But before we do-"

He spun dramatically, extending a hand and pointing a slender finger at Syrgei, although the effect was lost as he tilted his hand downwards in a rather flamboyant manner.

"You, economically challenged one! I understand that some things are bad. But I have it on good authority that some very bad things come on two legs, and the amount of motor appendages an organism has is not entirely indicative of its moral compass. If those rrrhuffians had made off with the cows for The Pale Tree knows why reasons, hwhat would the people of Divinity's Reach consume? They would ask questions, such as "Hwhere is the beef?" In the act of removing these vandals from the social pool, you have in fact improved the economy and safety of the city, decreased the unemployment pool, and saved several gold in the taxpayers' coffers by not having to bother that man Logan Thackery with this business. Now, let us be off! I hwish to experience...adventure!"

He clapped his hands, signifying that the matter had been dealt with to everyone's satisfaction, assuming that everyone else had the same qualms as Eduardo.

But Eduardo could never understand the qualms that Dan faced!

Dan limped along, bringing up the rear of the group. He had quietly ditched the bag of potatoes when no one was looking. Now he performed the awkward Charr walk of utilizing all four legs, most likely registering himself as twice as bad as a person could be on the Tsaerri Scale.

Of course you are Dan! Don't you know the phrase? Two legs good, four legs bad?

Dan thought to himself that, no, that was not the correct quote and the source material didn't exist in this universe anyway, so the little voice in his head could can it with the guilt trip. The guilt trip was a three day weekend retreat Dan had already taken, which turned out to be two week struggle to survive after experiencing the rock slide of Regret and the constantly biting mosquito swarm of Insecurity.

Fine, the little voice said, But you know what I mean. They saw what you did Dan. They all did. Even the potatoes Dan. Do you know why they saw you Dan?

Dan knew exactly what was coming next. He stifled a groan as he tried to shut out the little voice making the world's worst joke.

Because potatoes have eyes, Dan. Potatoes have eyes!
