Since it's been one thing after another from when I woke up in this mad place, I decide to call it a day here. Considering my options I think it's safest to just return to Rudi's "The Belly", get something to eat and drink, and finally drop onto the bed that is hopefully still waiting there for me.

38 minutes remain.

A beaming smile replaces the utter sadness on my face.
"Sir, I am forever indebted to you. I will honor this gracious gift and promi- NO, I swear(!) to pay you back not only the amount agreed upon, but what you deserve on top. Mark. My. Words."
And I swagger out of the store towards the guild hall.

Quickly realizing that I am broke af (as foretold), my face gives the answer of "no, I do not have the currency needed". I get a hold of myself and ask him: "Is it possible to have that diary reserved for a later purchase? Like, don't sell it to anyone else?
Because I'll work on that money, soon."

"Hello. Yeah, I get that a lot, today. Say, do you sell journals here? I need some blank pages to keep track of things." Glancing over the items on display, I add: "Any recommendations on what's useful for living here in general?"

Sweet, an all-you-can-eat buffet for everyone

First come, first serve. I give a friendly nod to the shopkeep as I enter and immediately start looking around.
I've got some time to kill before I have to make my way back to Rudy's tavern. I look for anything that might serve as a notebook to write my journal, but I am open to anything peculiar.

I wave back as I leave. It eases my mind a lot to know that I'm safe here (for now). And though I memorize everything she told me, I'd rather start a journal, just to be sure. I go looking for something like a store. I'm excited to explore this lively place.

"And does 'he' have a name? Anyway, thank you for your help so far. Any advice on where I should go next? This place is enormous and I should take this step by step, otherwise I think I'll lose my mind."
I pocket everything she gave me.

97 minutes remain.

I walk over and give her a thankful smile back.
"What gave it away that I'm new?"
I give her the basics on how I woke up in the tavern with amnesia, the conversation with Rudi and the patrons, and ask if there is any way of helping me get my memories back and how this society is even a thing.

As i come to my senses again, I notice the Info Station and make a beeline there. Still, I try to take all of this bizarre place in, like a child in a Toys'R'Us.

112 Minutes remain. (2/2)

Barely having taken three steps, I freeze in my tracks. Eyes as well as my mouth wide open. Flabbergasted. Bamboozled even. As if a child was witnessing a christmas tree illuminated to the fullest for the first time in its life. (1/2)

Diablo 3 VS. In Stars And Time

"Nope, no idea...Info station. Pier. Got it. Thanks, Rudi. If I'm not back within two hours...well..." and I put three coins from the pouch on the counter, then leave.
At the door, when I hear those final words, I glance over my shoulder to spot whoever said it, readying myself for a "thanks".

"Fair enough. I'll go for a little stroll outside."
I reach for the picture of the unknown person under my armour and show it to him.
"Just one more thing. Have you, by any chance, seen this one?"
