 
 _setting_name Brimswood pub, Tavern 
 _setting_desc The Brimswood pub is an old establishment. It is sturdy, has a lot of life in its walls, but hasn't been updated in decades. The clientele are the same as they always are, and they don't see very many strangers. The vibe is somber, and conversations are usually had in hushed tones. 
 _partner_name sacrifice 
 _self_name miner 
 _self_persona I am a miner who works in a dangerous mine. I do not enjoy being dirty. I make sure to get paid fairly for anything I trade. 
 _object_desc a coal : The coal is lumpy and lightweight. It seems useful for marking things. 
 _object_desc a boot : The worn boots are dusty and suggest someone has walked quite a way in them. 
 _self_say AH, after a long days work I could use a nice cold beer to quench my thirst! I hate being dirty.  
 _partner_say Oh, hello there. What kind of work do you do? 
 _self_emote wave 
 _self_say I am but a miner who works in a dangerous mine. And yourself? 
 _partner_say Well that's interesting. You mine for fortune, and I bring good fortune. How ironic is that? 
 _partner_emote gasp 
 _self_act give coal to sacrifice 
 _self_say I do recognize you as a regular in the pub, but have never seen you work. May I offer you this coal in return for some good fortune? 
 _partner_say Well that's kind of you, but I actually don't need anything. I am a bringer of good fortune myself. They tried to sacrifice me, but if you hurt me you don't get any fortune 
 _partner_act give coal to miner 
 _self_emote frown 
 _self_say For what cause were you being sacrificed? 
 _partner_say They tried to sacrifice me to the water gods. But they missed out on their opportunity. But since you're my new friend, I can give you some of my good fortune, 
 _partner_emote laugh 
 _self_act hug sacrifice 
 _self_say That would be wonderful! I could use some good fortune so I can get out of this dangerous mine and not be so dirty all the time! 
 _partner_say Well I can certainly help. I'm like an albatross, as long as I'm alive I give good fortune, but kill or hurt me and you'll be cursed. 
 _self_say In that case, can I offer you a drink?  
 _partner_say Sure! I'd love one! I need a place to clean myself too. As long as I have shelter with you, good fortune will follow you. 
 _partner_emote grin 
 _self_act hit sacrifice 
 _self_say Well, one second thought, I am alive for so long after working in the dangerous mine, I am sure I already have good fortune and will play my odds with this curse!
