Kinoko Origins - Ep 16: Artisan's Alley

**This episode was recorded before 3/1/2021. The game system used in this episode is no longer being played on current recordings of the podcast.** Hello everyone, settle in please. We are continuing our lecture series on the Keepers today, following Team Catapult's dealings the morning after the Showdown at Low Noon. Late in the night, Jacques found himself in his strange dream realm once more, his focus being pulled toward a large formation in the Deathcap Desert - a butte with an odd glow about it. With questions lingering about the origin of the predatory Pokémon, our heroes are set to investigate this mysterious locale. But before that, our young Initiates have decided that it would be best to investigate the local market first, because merchants usually know things. And so we find Virgil and Jacques on the hunt for information, and perhaps trying to procure goods and services along the way. What is this place like in the daytime when there aren't beasts lurking on the outskirts of town? What clues can Team Catapult pick up from the townsfolk? Is this really just a shopping episode in disguise? Let's find out in our latest installment… Artisan's Alley! DM: Jonah M.
