He answers her, "...I made a deal with Bavlorna. Long have I suffered heartbreak, anguish, and despair from losing the people I loved. I went to her, hoping that she would help me forget them, and thus, relieve me of the pain. She agreed to help, and she did so. But when it came time for me to pay, I realized the truth of her words. She wanted my still-beating heart in return," He continues, "I refused her my heart. So, in punishment, she took it by force, and replaced my heart with a goat's heart," [hr] [CENTER][color=00746b][h2]Downfall: Trinket, Bauble, and Charm's (D10)[/h2][/color] [img]https://5e.tools/img/adventure/WBtW/048-02-008.rain-cloud-balloon.webp[/img][/CENTER] Brutrumukk easily makes his way past the building and to the ominous black cloud, with Jub following him. A big black balloon floats over the lake, tugging at its moorings. Beneath it hangs a basket made of black wicker and wood, which serves as a merchant's stall. A large pane of gray glass is drawn closed across an opening above the counter. A sign mounted above the window reads, "[i]Wondrous Wares & Fair Fares![/i]" As Jub observed earlier, the balloon is not made of fabric, but rather appears to be a roiling, dark rain cloud that has been contained somehow with lines and netting. A sign below the counter lists the following [I]Available for a Limited Time Only! Very good thimble (fingertip not included) Mug of Bumble Beer (has a nice sting to it) Duskmallow pie (with decorative bite marks) Bundle of dry wood (great for starting fires) Ink portraits (if we have to look at you, so should you) Moonlight monocle (no more fumbling in the dark)[/I] Two feminine figures with pale gray to blue skin, wearing black pointed hats speak to each other, "Oh! Hey, Trinket! We've two munchkins coming up!" "Ha! Finally! Some variety other than those froggies! Hello, Munchkins, whaddaya want to buy at our stall?"
