Single post in Medieval Travels - An Interactive Story

You decide not to approach the young man, instead watching him from a distance. You watch him for a few seconds before another shady young man joins him. They don't share a lot of words, making you wonder what is going on. You turn your gaze away as the king approaches the small group of people gathered together to present their gifts to him. The two suspicious-looking young men walk over and join the group. The king happily accepts gift after gift, turning to the two young men, who present him with a small glass of what they call their village's best rum. He thanks them and drink it. As the king turns to you, you hand him your gift of a small, handmade doll that looks like a little king. He thanks you and clasps your hands in his before making a gurgle sound and fainting. The guards that walked out with him yell orders immediately and take you into custody, the young men mysteriously having vanished. You sit in jail for several hours until a guard comes and proclaims to you that the king died by poison, but they could not prove that it was you. You are let go and escorted out of the castle with an apology. As you leave the gates, you hear soft talking. Do you investigate the noise or go to the nearby inn and call it a night? Investigate the noise Turn in for the night
