"I'm looking for the beef jerky," says Josh. The clerk scowls at him. "Yeah, it's at the center of the store, around Aisle 6224." he says, pointing towards one of the mountains in the distance. Josh stares for a moment. Okay, it WAS a big store. And...there was a mountain range in the middle of it. Fine. Sure. He could live with that. The clerk hands him a map and a compass. "Just go this way, past the battery aisle, take a left at hardware and go about twenty five miles through the Forest of Woe. I marked it on your map. It's full of cannibals though, so be careful. You can probably cut through the Plains of Blood to get around the Forest of Woe, but that'll add a good three days to your trip. Watch out for the orcs around Aisle 226." He indicates the sites on your map with his finger. "There's a village a couple of days walk east from here near the Hardware aisle where you can get fresh supplies and a horse." "Now, when you get to the peak--IF you get to the peak--you'll find a sorceress named Zazel, who will ask you three riddles. She's easy to find--her house is carved out of a single bone that was never a part of any living creature. If you can answer them correctly, she'll guide you to the snack aisle. But be careful--she's as treacherous as she is beautiful, and her riddles have never been solved. There's rumored to be a blind beggar living in the town of Curst who successfully answered two of them. If you can find him, maybe he can be persuaded to tell you." He pauses and looks at Josh. "You got all that?"
