I agree with this shockingly. This guy obviously is hiding something he doesn't want to tell us. We need to spy on him to make sure he's not selling our secrets to the Chinese.

>> Ask about any possible explosives.

...E-explosives? Do you mean those red stick thingies that you guys b-brought with you a long time ago? We used them all up on the mines, exactly as...as you told us to. I guess if you bring us some more, w-we can...use them?

>> Demand his name, rank, and serial number. Angrily.

My--uh...um. What...what is a rank? And a cereal number...?

>> "Wait! What's your name, Stranger?"

Just my name...that would be Martin...oh, or...or Marty...sir.

>> Let him go, but follow him to see where he goes.

You let MARTY go. He leaves the area and heads directly for the MINING STORE in town.

VIEW FLASH ANIMATION
(Click spoiler button afterward)

You put the PICKAXE on the ground, handle upward, and rest your head on it. You then spin around as fast as you can a few times!

WHOA. You're extremely dizzy! This...this is pretty awesome, actually. You almost decide to try running around, but figure you're safer standing where you are.

Before your DIZZINESS ends, you glance upward and notice your DIZZY HALO.

You gained 20% CHIMERAN EXPERIENCE!

>> GET THE BUCKET.

You go back to the MAIN STREET of BURAM VILLAGE and grab the BUCKET by the BUILDING you passed on your way in.

>> Take disgarded bucket and use construction skills to fashion it into a stylish top hat.

You feel that this would be a really cool idea, and your CONSTRUCTION LEVEL could certainly use the boost. However, if you turn the BUCKET into a TOP HAT, you just know you'd accidentally destroy the actual BUCKET part of it somehow. For the time being, you decide to leave it as is.

>> Equip +5 Bucket Helm of Pwn
>> Equip Pick as weapon.

You equip the BUCKET and the PICKAXE!

Unfortunately, instead of being a +5 BUCKET HELM OF PWN, it turns out to be a +3 BUCKET HELM OF NOOB. You look really, really silly with that thing on.

>> Take quarter and use it as a monocle.
>> Use new disguse to re-engage conversation with stuttering guy.

You consider this, but the timing seems too perfect, and BURAM VILLAGE too deserted, that you think the disguise wouldn't pan out as you hope. Instead, you eavesdrop on MARTY inside the MINING STORE. You creep up to the WINDOW and can hear him talking.

H-hi John.

Hey Marty. ...You ok?

Yeah, I just...ran into one of our bosses outside.

Here? Today? But it's not the end of the month yet!

That's what I said, too.

Ha ha, really? You worked up the courage to say that, eh?

W-well it's true! And with the mine collapse, we just have to work harder...ugh. Anyway, he asked for a pickaxe for some reason, so I gave him mine.

Weird. That's the first I've heard of any of them actually trying to do any work. Here, I'll loan you this one, no charge.

Thanks, John. I've got to get back to work. I was so scared--for a minute there, I thought he was going to demand another cart full of Jaitia by month's end...

I'm glad he didn't. At this rate alone, I may need to come help you guys out with mining these last few days. I won't keep you any longer; stay safe.

You duck out of the way and back towards the MINE CARTS as MARTY comes to the MINING STORE'S FRONT DOOR with a new PICKAXE in hand. You hide behind one of the CARTS and watch as he trudges back up towards the LOWER MINE SHAFT.

My life has been...a bit hectic and confusing lately, so sometimes I'm losing track of the days these are posted on. If I ever go past 5 days without an update, please PM me on the forums or something.

Also, let me know if you guys are having a hard time telling the difference between narration text and dialogue. Some of the dialogues get close to black sometimes.

~~~

>>Take one lump of the Jaitia from the cart.

You take a LUMP OF JAITIA from the MINE CART and store it in your INVENTORY.

>> SPIN AGAIN!!

You spin some more, but do not gain any additional CHIMERAN EXPERIENCE. (Click link)

>>Follow Marty into the mine.
>> Follow him up to the LOWER MINE SHAFT

It seems like the SUN is inching towards setting over the MOUNTAIN. You feel fairly unequipped to be in the LOWER MINE SHAFT, especially if everyone else leaves at SUNSET. You also have an urge to explore some more on this nice late afternoon.

>> examine WELL

The BURAM VILLAGE WELL is simply that; a WELL with WATER in it, which looks fairly clean and probably drinkable. You can barely see some LADDER RUNGS sticking out of the stone, but you've played more than enough Zelda: Ocarina of Time to know that even if the RUNGS lead somewhere, it's probably somewhere very creepy that you don't wish to go.

>> Remove metal plate and examine the hole created

The METAL PLATE is solidly affixed to the bottom of your BUCKET and won't easily be removed. Looking in at it, it's nice and smooth, and hardly seems to be anything out of the ordinary. (Except, you know, a piece of METAL where some WOOD would usually be.)

>> Rob John's Mining Shoppe

You burst into JOHN'S MINING SHOPPE and claim that this is a ROBBERY! JOHN takes a good look at you for a second before responding.

...Is this a joke?

With PICKAXE in hand and BUCKET HELMET as HEADGEAR, you hesitate for a moment, slightly startled at JOHN's lack of nervousness (like that of lovable, stuttering MARTY.) JOHN breaks the silence before you can reply.

Ok, drop the charade. You're obviously not here for the Jaitia. Who are you, and what do you want with our village?
