You climb the beanstalk, the fat man is unable to follow you. You are climbing a wide beanstalk trunk. Halfway up, you pause to catch your breath, and notice a small treehouse complex tethered to the trunk, supported by vines. There are some imps here, swords drawn.Originally posted by ArdescoClimb beanstalk
One imp says "Stop, who goes there?" and waves his sword at you.
You look down, far below you, you can see the great grassy plain, the forest, with the occasional clearing and buildings dotted here and there, and the thatched village over to the North East. The fat man is resting at the foot of the beanstalk.

An imp says 'we're already in a contract, thank you, paying us a handsome sum per hour, we're mostly all great at killing humans, trolls and building things. We don't work with ninjas.' Another imp calls out 'I'm good at cooking'.
You see an imp put on a tiny parachute, and base-jump off the beanstalk towards the great grassy plain below you.
