"We were told to look for the golden tents. So that shouldn't be too difficult." Chispa says a bit impatiently.

"Well, I guess we should first look for the golden tents since that is part of the mission?"

Searching around, Vulpi spots one of the golden tents--it is labeled 'Spicy Brothers' and seems to sell peppers. A human garbed in a garish red-and-green uniform stands out front, welcoming those who seek to participate in the 'Aroon Family Pepper Challenge.'
Meanwhile, Zencho wanders off on his own and manages to come across a stall selling drinks--specifically, something called a 'Sabai Sabai Cocktail.'

"Zencho!" Ha-Yun calls out to stop him, but it is too late. Instead, she stays with the others to head towards the golden tent. "Pepper Challenge?" Ha-Yun asks curiously.

The man nods. "Ah, welcome fair lady. Are you interested in participating? I can go over the rules. Participants will sit at a table with a basket of mixed peppers and several pitchers of milk. There are three rounds; on each round, a participant randomly chooses a pepper from the basket and must eat it. Anyone who eats a pepper each round without reaching for milk or leaving the table is declared a winner. Simple, no? Oh, and also there is to be no violence and no magic used. So, are you interested?"

Vulpi sits down at the table expectantly after the host says this but doesn't verbally respond.

"Let me try a mug or two, if you will- O great merchant." Zencho ask excited. 'I have the coin..I think... what is it made of?"

Seeboe eyes the peppers wondering if he can figure out which are the mild and which are the hot ones.

"Well... Some here are better suited for this contests than others." She looks at Hu-Yan. "But my mentor always told be never back off of a challenge that won't kill you..." she says quietly, then looks at the merchant, "It won't kill me, right?" she asks, half smiling half panicked as she slowly takes place at the table near the others. ========================================================================= (OOC: On the way to the tents Chispa does try to look for metal work.

"Well, I kind of love spicy food, so I should be able to do this," Ha-Yun says. She takes a seat, clearly ready to take on this challenge.

Vulpi, Ha-Yun, Chispa, and SeeboeThe four wait patiently for the next event to begin, then are ushered inside. A crowd applauds from nearby bleachers as they're led into the broad, open space of the event tent. Before them is a square table bearing a massive basket of colorful peppers and several pitchers of milk. "Welcome, challengers, to the Aroon Family Pepper Challenge!" shouts a bombastic announcer standing near the table and wearing a red, pepper-themed costume. "I'm your host, Vi Aroon! Is everyone ready to Greet. The. Heat?!" (The one on the left.)
Vi explains the rules once more for their sake and that of the audience, then asks, "Are you four ready to begin?" He answers any last minute questions the group has, but otherwise they move forward with the contest. (OOC: Each of you roll 1d20 to determine what kind of pepper you randomly choose from the basket. Then make a CON saving throw to see how well you keep it down.) ZenchoThe vendor pours him a glass. It's a sort of amber-colored liquid, chilled with ice and with some basil leaves added for pastiche. "It contains local whiskey, lemon juice, some syrup, and a few other minor ingredients. Five silver for a glass." The drink has something of a tropical feel to it; it tastes light, sweet, and tangy and is quite good. In some small ways, it almost reminds Zencho of the saki back home, but only slightly. It more tastes like a fruity rum, though. ================= Zencho spends 5 silver.
