They walked away from the cavern and quickly found the road again, the one leading to Stonehill. It didn't take long for them to see the small town, a few houses nested in the middle of mountains.
"We were so close to the town when we got caught in that illusion. I don't even know what it caused it," Clay said.
Alex decided to explain some things about what had happened, and about the lady that they saw on the road, which turned out to be an old hag. When the players heard that, they had a strange smile on their faces.
'Why do I have the feeling they just got some sort of quest because of that? Fuck, I want the EXP too!'
Perhaps the game had heard Alex's internal thoughts of despair because a quest appeared in front of him, slightly different than usual. It had a written quest, the same one that the players got as well as their reward. A quest with an A difficult, and the rewards were massive.
