Chapter 1.41
Erin discovers The Wandering Inn has been ransacked and travels to Liscor to buy weapons. Finding real weapons too expensive, she buys acid jars for defense, and Pisces animates a Level 1 Skeleton Warrior to guard the inn.
Erin Solstice returned to The Wandering Inn to find that a thief had broken in and ransacked her belongings. Realizing her vulnerability, she decided she needed proper weapons and security to protect herself and her business.
She traveled to Liscor and visited the Adventurer's Guild, where she encountered Selys and a yellow-scaled Drake adventurer named Ylss, who loudly complained about the Guild's low payout rates for monster parts. Seeking armament, Erin went to a weapon shop run by a burly Gnoll Shopkeeper. She inquired about purchasing a sword or a high-quality crossbow from Noelictus but quickly discovered that real weapons were entirely outside her budget. Needing an affordable defensive alternative, Erin purchased acid jars—makeshift grenades filled with harvested Acid Fly juice.
Meanwhile, Rags navigated her own survival challenges as she dealt with her Goblin tribe and the Chieftain.
Back at The Wandering Inn, Erin discussed her security problem with Pisces. The Necromancer offered an unorthodox solution by animating a skeleton to serve as a permanent guard. Surprisingly, upon its creation, the undead minion immediately gained a class and became an Unnamed, Level 1 Skeleton Warrior. Pisces assigned the skeleton to protect Erin, providing The Wandering Inn with a tireless new defender.

“We do not sell many bucklers. I will sell both for four gold coins, Erin Solstice, so long as you promise not to use either without first being instructed.”
“Why not? They’re cheap, I know them personally, and they live around my inn.”
“It’s too small. Look, you need a larger shield if you really want to equip yourself. Which I still don’t recommend, by the way. And even if you have both, you’re not a trained warrior, Erin. I could beat you, and I don’t even practice.”
“Dangerous stuff. And I don’t want it. But what if I gave you some smaller jars? You could sort of throw this stuff at people, right? Not on Shield Spiders, though. It doesn’t really work on them. But other things—yeah. What do you think?”
“You could have gotten a far better deal selling the spiders’ bodies elsewhere. Probably half again as much, especially if you went right to the right merchants. The Guild charges far too much for its service.”
“The Guild pays a good rate for monster parts! If you’ve got a problem, Ylss, take it up with the guild master—or the council.”
“The Guild won’t listen, and the council won’t either. But I’ve been talking to the Human adventurers, and they say their guilds pay them far better than ours does.”
“But they are good for amateurs. I do not stock them, but Drake cities make use of them. We Gnolls—less so.”
“Deal. But like I said, these aren’t for me. They’re a gift. Or maybe a bribe.”
