The Truthful Merchant

Unlocks when the player experiences the direct negative effects of their curse f...

The hum of Oakhaven’s marketplace—bakers hawking honey cakes, farriers calling out for horses, children darting between weathered wooden stalls—fades to a dull roar as the familiar magical tightness coiled in your throat flares.

Your palms, already sticky from midday sun, slick further against the splintered edge of your stall as the noblewoman’s heavy silk skirts swish an inch from your scuffed leather boots.

She repeats her question, sharp with impatience, and you can feel the curse sealing your mouth shut against any lie you might stitch together to salvage the sale.

The shoddy silver necklace she’s eyeing is nothing more than a cheap knockoff you hammered together last week from scrap metal, worth barely a copper, and the curse will drag that truth screaming from your lips if you don’t act fast.

Let the curse speak the truth, then pivot to pitch the noblewoman a genuinely well-made silver bracelet you have stored in your stall
Grab a nearby apple and send it rolling into the crowd to create a commotion that distracts her from her question
Admit you are cursed, explain the necklace’s poor quality, and offer it to her for a single copper to smooth over the inconvenience

You were a prosperous merchant, known for your silver tongue and shrewd deals, until a vengeful witch cursed you to never tell a lie. Now, every word you speak must be the absolute truth.

The bustling marketplace of Oakhaven is unforgiving to an honest merchant. You stand behind your stall, displaying a collection of slightly tarnished silver trinkets. A wealthy noblewoman approaches, eyeing a particularly shoddy necklace that you bought for pennies. "Tell me, merchant," she asks haughtily, "is this piece truly authentic elven craftsmanship?" You feel the familiar magical constriction in your throat, preparing to force the truth from your lips. How do you respond, and what is your plan for the future?
