Trade, Negotiation, and Exploration Discussions
The group conversed with a merchant about trade routes and item origins, and negotiated for information about a journey to the third level in exchange for a substantial amount of gold. There was interest in purchasing certain items, but the merchant's tripled prices deterred them. The conversation also touched on a guarded location beyond the third level and potential allies, the drill fortress. Later, the iPad purchased items such as an oil flask and ball bearings from the market. The group also discussed the phrase "elite speak," and visited a food stand and a potions and wines stand. Towards the end, iPad visited a weapons store to sell a few items, including a slingshot, a dagger, and a 'right peer'.

Role-Playing Scenario Discussion and Planning
The team discussed various facets of their role-playing scenario, including iPad's acquisition of 20 items and potential interaction with Yuck, a character who appears to be leading a gang. They decided to investigate further and possibly question the weapons store owner about Yuck's identity. Concerns about their hit points, energy, or health led to a consensus to take a short rest. They also debated whether to engage with a local shopkeeper and how to handle the presence of a beholder. The team decided to return to Resurrell for more information before proceeding, and speculated about Gimbal's possible connections and knowledge. They also planned their next gaming session for the upcoming Tuesday and shared personal updates.
