The group is on their way to meet Nodaryc's contact, a Talismonger. When they arrive, Nodaryc remembers why he doesn't visit the shop very often.

GM: "As you look out the window, you see several rows of garden gnomes"

*Nodaryc shudders*

Nodaryc: "ScheisseGnomen! Why is it always like this? Why the gnomes?"

Strata and Mouse look at him curiously.
