Looking around, you spot Impish perched on the clerk’s shoulder.
<Hello again! Looks like you’re in a bit of a pickle, huh?
<Seems like if you don’t do something, you’re getting a hole in your head!
You shudder.
Yeah.. help me, please! Can I soyduel him?
<I’m afraid not. You can only soyduel someone else who has an orb.
Fear grips you, and you stutter out a response.
O-okay, well, could you just..look around for anything useful? Anything?
<Sure thing! Are there any particular places you want me to search first? I can also show you what’s going on in his Neuralink.
As you try to formulate an answer to his question, you notice that you feel a slight tingling sensation, not coming from your body but from in front of you, where the cashier is – almost like a limb that’s fallen asleep.
What do you do?, how could you tell?
