A Phantom From the Past (King's Adventure)

(Ki shot -roll 40- Success)
(Sweet Peck -roll 99- Fail)

"Three days on foot from here. So you know we'll have plenty of time." She said with a wink before being forced away by his attack.

Kong: 28 Willpower
Playful Thief: 7 Stamina

"Thanks, but no thanks." Kong said as he rushed in to jab her with his fingers.

(Swarming Sting)

(Lovely Lashings -roll 31- Fail)

Kong was able to get a few hits in but one slipped and he ended up wrapping a hand around her breast.

Kong: 27 Willpower
Playful Thief: 5 Stamina

Kong blushed fiercely at his mistake and tried to forcefully shove her away.

(Force Palm)

(Force Palm -roll 30- Success)
(Sweet Peck -roll 8- Success)

Kong was able to shove her away, but not before she managed to place a soft kiss on his cheek, leaving a little lipstick mark.

Kong: 26 Willpower + Lust Mark (0/3)
Playful Thief: 2 Stamina

The martial artist tried to ignore the feeling of the mark and just hurled another ball of ki at her in hopes of knocking her out.

(Ki Shot)

(Ki Shot -roll 8- Success)

The shot knocked the thief into the bushes and out of the fight.

(Victory)

Kong continued on for a bit before stopped and sat down. He wiped the lip mark off of his cheek as tried to think about his next move.

She had said the woman who wanted him was three days of foot travel away. He could probably make it there faster if he ran, but did he even want to head there?

(Encounter -roll 4- Success)
(Encounter Table -roll 2- Hare Girl)

As Kong was puzzling over his predicament a hare girl unexpectedly sat down beside him. "What you thinking about mister?" She asked innocently.

Kong: 30 Willpower
Hare Girl: 20 Stamina

"Some woman apparently put a bounty on me, and I'm wondering what to do about it." Kong answered before he blinked in surprise and glanced at the woman next to him.

"Now why would anyone ever do that? You're not a thief are you." The hare girl asked. Leaning against him a little as she did so.

"No, I'm not." Kong said with a sigh. "I don't even know who this Madam Dolthi is. I just got to this duchy for the first time, today."

"Maybe I can help you get your mind off it." The hare girl offered. Placing a hand in his shoulder.

"No, thank you." Kong said as he gently brushed her hand away. "I've already had three people come to try and collect that bounty."

(Lucky Charm -roll 9- Crit Fail)

"You sure? It will help you feel better?" She prompted, getting a little pushy.

"I'm sure." Kong said as he stood up and started to move on.

(Flee)

(Flee -roll 96- Crit Success)

"Ok. See ya." The Hare Girl said sadly as he walked away.

Kong waved goodbye tot the rabbit and continued on his way. It seemed the only way he was going to get answers was to find this Madam Dolthi and get the answers from her. He had a good idea of the distance, now he just needed a map or something so he'd know what direction to head in.

(Encounter -roll 68- Success)
(Encounter Table -roll 17- Offer)

According to the signs. He was getting close to Hartdeck. Maybe he could find a map or get directions there. As he approached the town he was suddenly stopped by a woman dressed very similarly to the one who had accosted him not long ago. "Hey honey. Can I interest you in a quick business proposition?" She asked with a sly wink.

"Depends on the proposition." Kong answered as he narrowed his eyes and warily approached the woman.

"I've got here a grand host of useful items for an adventurer such as yourself. And I'd be willing to part with some of them in exchange for a bit of service." She explained, eyeing him hungrily.

"What kind of service?" Kong asked as he came to a stop.

"Depends on how much you want." She told him, splaying out her offerings. There were two potions, a tube of small brown pills, a single bright pink pill, and a faintly glowing orb.

"...I have no idea what any of this is." Kong admitted as he examined the wares. He then looked the saleswoman in the eye. "Do you have a simple map of the duchy that I can pay for with silver marks?"

"Well these are potions of willpower. Useful when doing battle with midara." She said, pointing to the potions. "These are solider's pills. Very useful in any fight." Pointing to the brown pills. "This is a pill of Brief Mercy, which temporarily reduces ones libido." Pointing to the pink pill. "And this is a flash orb. You cover your eyes and throw it on the ground and it lets out a blinding flash of light." Pointing to the orb. "And I do have a map. But you'll have to pay for it the same way as everything else." She explained.

(Willpower potions restore 10 Willpower. Soldier's pills give Advantage for 4 turns. Brief mercy reduces incoming willpower damage by 2 for 5 turns but has aftereffects. And the flash orb stuns all opponents.)
