Hello and welcome /qst/
you are Dr.Tatsuya called in to the town of Belle-ford as your medicine stocks have run low and your supply runner hasn't been seen for over a month.
as you arrive your phone loses all signals
and you hope that this will be a short visit
Find a drug dealer. Medicine is the same as drugs right?
>>1622382
as you arrive to the town square you see several houses
there is only one street light but you can see
1.) someone tending to their flowers
2.) what appears to be a tavern or an inn
3.) a building with a red cross possibly the hospital
what do you do
>>1622412
Let's talk to the guy gardening, maybe we can make a friend
>>1622392
Dr.Tatsuya thinks to himself
"illegal drugs could certainly help in practical medicine" but we're back to square one
"i dont know i might find these drugs"
>>1622434
lets ask the gardener for some advice
you walk up to find a kindly looking old lady
watering her flowers
since she doesnt look the kind to be involved in drugs tatsuya withholds that option until he feels like he can safely ask without facing jailtime
What do you ask her
>>1622462
"You got any poppy seeds?"
>>1622477
>>1622457
using your medical lingo you somehow convince the old granny that you are in need of poppy seeds
for medical research
she points you over to the local tavern and says
"ask for Irish she'll assist you in such affairs"
"its a start but i still cant leave without some legitimate medicine"
>>1622507
Sweet. Lets head to the tavern all causal like. Order a beer, and then ask about Irish. With a name like that she's either a fire cracker or just a red head.
>>1622522
This
as you're walking towards the tavern you hear church bells and crowds of folks heading towards the hospital "that might not be a hospital after all"
-story break--
sorry if its taking a bit i have a story all planned out but i also gotta draw it and work in decisons into it but i hope its an enjoyable ride--back to the story---
>>1622531
>>1622522
"ok time to plan this tatsuya >>1622522 Lets head to the tavern all causal like. Order a beer, and then ask about Irish. With a name like that she's either a fire cracker or just a red head."
as you walk into the empty tavern you hear
"SHUT THAT DOOR WILL YA, I CANT STAND THOSE BELLS" you see a young woman, irish most likely as its eerily empty aside from her
>>1622569
>Close the damn door
"Ello Ma'am, can you give me something that'll knock out a horse?" Order beer. Drink beer. Ask why the bells are going off. "Not an air raid is it?"
as you shut the door you sit down and order a beer
"can i ask whats with those bells is it some kind of alarm or raid thing?"
irish hands you the mug [that she presumably made for herself] and says " no thats the towns church bells tho i cant fer the life of me tell ya what they worship"
as you listen to her you forgot to introduce yourself and you smell lavender on her sweater which always makes tatsuya "Restless"
you should stay sitting at the bar table until you calm down
unfinished peice i had in case i predicted a response
Irish ist her name its what they called her father until he died and she just inherited the name and bar
she has a slight accent not noticable unless you are paying attention
well shit look at the time i guess ill continue tomorrow morning when you guys are awake
MEDICINE QUEST
Hope to see you back sometimes QM
Questions to ask maybe?
"Is the town very religious?"
"What happened to your pa?"
"About those seeds ... "
Well hopefully more people are awake and are interested
>>1622688
you take a sip of your beer hoping to calm your nerves
you introduce yourself as Dr.Tatsuya
Irish nods while pouring herself a mug of beer
you ask about the towns church and those bells "is this town very religious, i dont want to offend my suppliers"
(wait that sounds like i only meant drugs ) you think to yourself
>>1623371
>(wait that sounds like i only meant drugs )
Could also mean you're a back alley abortionist
>>1623567
unfortunately Tatsuya was great dishonor to his famuri as he is only a pathologist and not a brain or heart surgeon
>>1623693
Irish explains to you that the town has been worshiping something in the church for as long as she has lived in belle-ford
"something about the body of the lord being kept in the church"
so it is a cult but who cares i only need medicine and drugs
"but if you didnt know whenever they take communion the old folk come back looking younger"
you make a mental note of that
1.) ask about the seeds
2.) finish your beer and talk with irish
3.) head for the church
4.) -Wild Card Decision-
>>1623759
fuck wrong image
Rolled 9 (1d20)
>>1623766
>>1623759
Head for the church
>>1625868
you pay for your drinks and leave
as you arrive at the church you see that the red cross bears a strange butterfly with a human face instead of the usual jesus
there is also a sickly looking man smoking outside
what should the good doctor do
>>1626000
Diagnose the so called sickly man
