"Sometimes I surprise even myself," Doc chuckles... making a mental note to test it on someone else first.

Right, assuming you all climb back out and make your way over to Tammy's room, you muck about with the safe combo until you've cracked it, you find, inside...

<drum roll>

First person to reply to this post with the following rolls will determine the contents:

d4
d2 (1 = roll 2d6, 2 = roll 2d6 twice)
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Meanwhile I’ll hack the heads off the two Loudmouths for bounty collection, then head back to the safe for the exciting reveal…

Doc will go reunite with Jinx and think about what a great day it is to not be sniped at with a rifle.

Sorry to keep you in suspense!


IN THE SAFE YOU FIND...


THREE HUNDRED PIECES OF SILVER!

A SMALL GOLD STATUE OF A HORSE'S HEAD!

A WHISTLE!

A PEWTER FIGURINE OF A HORSE!
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

100 silver and one item each?

CK's eyes fixate on the whistle with concerning enthusiasm.

Doc will pocket the gold statuette, albeit with the intention of selling it and dividing the proceeds at the next suitable juncture.

Is the whistle a penny whistle or more of a referee's whistle?

Either way, CK will begin belting out an ear-bleeding rendition of She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain.
