Umm, doesn't this sound familiar? Didn't our Town kinda get the same treatment?

I feel like we should investigate this further.

They're fine for the most part, but theres a few of them that the older kids like to pick on, and its not good to get caught up on that, so people don't wanna play with them." the kid looks conspiratorially to either side and then leans in to whisper "i heard that it's because some of them are real freaks, got cursed when their town was destroyed by a witch, now they have weeping sores and extra mouths and other horrible things."

You decide to scout out the location where you need to get the amulet before you get on forming a team. You wander off in the direction of the forest, noticing a few things. The first is that there really isn't much of a path, running this way will involve climbing over fallen logs and scrabbling up somewhat weird inclines. The second is that the distance is not insignificant, you walk for what you would estimate to be twenty minutes before you find the clearing. The post in the center is old and relatively beat up. The clearing itself is fairly wide, and there are the shambles of what once must have been a hut located near the furthest side of the clearing. Its as you're studying the clearing that you hear rustling in the trees, and the sound of very human footsteps, ahead, maybe 30-40 feet away. It sounds like a small group and its moving away from you. Not very stealthily. They probably don't know you're here?

As stealthily as you can, you sneak up on the rustling bushes up ahead. It doesn't take much. They're being rather... loud. As you approach you can hear what sounds like three people whispering. Whispering might be a bit of a generous term. Trying not to speak loudly? They are not succeeding. You catch fragments of the conversation. "Do you really think..." "Yeah, eats their faces!" "Treasure!". The voices are clearly young, kids, your age, perhaps even younger. They keep moving north, but you're used to traveling through the wilderness, and its obvious they are not. You overtake them before they've crossed much more distance.

You can clearly make out the conversation now. There are three of them, two boys and a girl, and the two boys are chattering on excitedly about a monster, and treasure, and how they're all going to be rich, while the girl keeps asking progressively more worried questions about this monster. It seems to be "Made of thousands of legs!" and it "melts faces and eats eyeballs!" but it also "guards a pile of gold and enchanted silver skulls!" In your years of traveling with the Sejin you've never heard of a creature like this. You'd remember seeing a creature that melts faces and is made entirely out of legs in the book.

You finally get a glimpse of the noisy wanderers through the trees, perhaps ten minutes after you started tracking them? Two boys, and... two girls? One of them isn't apparently participating in the conversation. Both of the boys look... incredibly similar. Twins? Except one of them has a few pockmarks across his face. You've seen it before, the scars of a ravaging flesh eating disease. The survivors all have the same scars. The two girls couldn't be more different. The one asking questions is a smaller, blonde thing, which reminds you of the china dolls one of the Sejin's "friends" collected. She looks to be the youngest of the group, maybe nine or ten? The other girl is raven haired, and you don't get to see much of her face, because she's utterly fixated on... the floor? It looks like she's following a trail or something. Looking at moss? The boys are both wielding crude "spears" if you can even call them that. More like sharpened sticks, while the older girl has a knife casually slung on her belt.

You:

A.) Aren't interested in this at all. Go back and play the game as originally planned (We'll follow through with the winner of that vote)
B.) Want to find out more! Bust this party and ask some questions!
C.) Want to sneak behind them silently. See where they're going!
D.) Put a stop to this immediately! Crash their party and demand they come back with you.
E.) Put a stop to this! Go tell someone back at the festival. You'll figure out who on the way back.
F.) Join them! Ask politely!
G.) Join them! Demand to be allowed to come! Your... guardian is a monster hunter and they need your help!
H.) Join them! Demand to be allowed to come or you'll go tattle!
I.) Write in. Something else
