Do you buy the milk?
Yes, you buy the milk
While you'd packed food and a waterskin, you didn't want to turn down some fresh milk. You handed over a few septims for each, and decided to take a drink. It was soft and cool going down your throat, refreshing you, but after a moment you felt a heat build in your breasts.
Weird.
But it'd been a long journey and it was already mid afternoon, so you drank the other bottle too. This time, you only felt the cool, refreshing feeling.
"Gosh, you sure did like that, miss! By the way, would you-" her words were cut off by a loud howl splitting the air. Then more howling.
And it was coming from nearby.
"Oh goodness," the woman whimpered. "The wolves are back for the cows. They've been so restless since yesterday, and I don't think the guards are close enough to chase them off this time." She began to run towards the barn. "I need to lock up! You should get away while you have the chance!"
Just as she said that, a furry black shape leapt over the fence surrounding the farm. Then another. A third. A fourth. A fifth.
You haven't fought this many enemies at one time on your own yet. Do you take the woman's advice and run, or do you defend her?
