Fifth Wheel

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 22697

In fact, it seemed they were in the capitol city of the legendary continent of Aussiebastards.[1] The Fifth Wheel city was it's name. The narrow tops of the buildings and the prediliction for everyone to wear knee length pants and feathery hats matched up with the wood carvings and paintings that Allarian soldiers took from pirates who had stolen it from other pirates who had stolen loot from wandering missionaries.
Fortunately chance, circumstance and a slightly bored god of wind who thought Astra was hot made it so that nobody saw them 'porting in.
So what was the first thing that three islanders and an overfed, underclever wizard did when finding themselves in the middle of a foreign city?

[1] The whole place was founded on criminals, political dissedents and smelly people being deported from other countries. They took great pride in the name and it is not just a desperate effort by the author to be funny and avoid being beaten up by certain southern-hemispehre dwelling citizens.

  1. Found a hotel and rented a room as a base of operations.
  2. Went to the pub for a pint and some chips.
  3. Go to the Unseen University's Aussiebastards annex. (The magic field allowed brief teleportation about once every six weeks. Naturally it was five weeks to go...)
  4. Buy some clothes and shoes and a dog whistle. (For communication if the group split up. Velus had doggy senses).
  5. Indiscriminate slaughter. (Uh oh. It looks as if an ion storm switched our heroes with their evil doubles!)
