I doubt we're clever enough to pull off a lie. Maybe a little white lie, but truthfully, I expect that the grownups can see through our deceptive ruse.

And let Danal keep Monkey. We're getting a dog once we get to our new home, they can be best friends, like we are with Danal. :)

Enkidel has waited for what feels like weeks to have some adventure, and by Magical Sky God, he's going to get some adventure this night.
Besides, if we go tell on the grownups, they'll either say we had a bad dream, or the building will be gone when they come to humor us by looking.

To anyone not on Team A: Ya'll are assuming we're gonna get jumped by some pissed off dryad or whatever. What if we go and it's Tom Bombadil? Him and his wife will hook us up and we'll spend all night singing and dancing.
Don't you want us to be happy?

Your people have flutes, you know what one is, even if this one is very odd looking.

But do we know how to play? Or is that one of the myriad things Dad told us would piss off Asherah?
Either way:
Voting to play the flute.

J - Tell mom about our adventure
K - But also ask for new clothes. With them and new sandals, we will look every bit the Hero we are!

Agreed with what SerSpook, the flute just really calls to me for some reason. Above all else, we need to ensure we get it. The sandals are probably magical, and if not, they're going to at least be ridiculously well-made and probably last us forever.

And we should try to get something for Danal, I doubt getting Monkey will appease him when he sees us with cold, hard treasure. That's kinda where I was going with the Bow vote, though one of the other items may be more fitting for him.

I don't think the place is a trap, I think the music and compulsions are a defense mechanism to ensure the place stays peaceful and undisturbed.

If they do ask, tell them the truth.
If Danal asks, just say that yes, we had a great adventure.

Voting to ask for some clothes, so we can look like the other men (and also carry our flute)

Question: When you say our attempt to play the flute in front of the city still came out "pretty", is that Pretty as a general consensus? Or pretty as in that's our/Enkidel's opinion?

I believe we should continue to learn, but we also need to learn some martial skills. Whatever weapon we decide we want to be good at, we should start trying to get lessons with.

Do our sandals allow us to fall from heights unharmed?

I doubt it. I think they just let us walk/run without ever getting tired or fatigued.

If we wanted ones for falling, we should have grabbed these ones

I don't want to order Danal to do anything. Sure, in the short term, it'll get us what we want (maybe), but it's going to plant resentment if we start throwing our weight around. Resentment that he's going to cash in on when Tudiya pulls him aside in the future and says "Oh yeah, Enkidel is totally your slave by the way. You can free him if you want, but that's your choice."

We need to stick with subtlety, let him have our way.

They are poorly armed, with simple wood and stone clubs and axes at best, many are bare handed. You can search, perhaps you may even find something, but from what you can tell of them, the odds of finding anything "magical" is rare.

"Magic" items indeed exist, heck, you seem to find two in the forest and Bareen and her adventurers seem to have a few... but they are, rare. This does not mean you won't find anything, I am just clarifying as to what you can guess the odds are.

I stand by my decision. :colbert:

Question though, when you say all the local youths are clamoring for the battlefield, are we talking primarily around Danal's age group? Are their kids our age running in for trophies?
What I'm wondering is, are we doing something typically regarded as a thing that little kids like Danal do?
