Lewd expo thing

For those who don't know, the Circle of Eight (Co8) group of modders have released a new version of their Temple of Elemental Evil mod (Co8 v5.6.1 beta).
Starting with v.5.6.0, most of the major new content is being moved to post vanilla endgame so as to attempt to restore what balance the vanilla version had (i.e. much less extra loot & xp), and make most of the new content optional.
The mod now also includes a preview of the new post-endgame boss. Personally, I found it... inappropriate. The person who made it (Gaear) disagrees; I'd like other people's input.
So without further ado... let's play!
Having just slain the master of the Moathouse, our intrepid Neutral Good group of adventurers exits through the secret tunnels...
Ambush! (neat fight ensues)
Take that!
Well, we heal up, sell Lareth's shit, scribe some scrolls, and finally return to Terjon to increment the story_state varia-, errr, see what's next.
Can I ask you some questions?
How can I help you?
I've cleared out the Moathouse for you Terjon. The bandits should be gone now. Will you be able to return home, then, soon?
Thanks Terjon. I'll head out there now and learn what I may. [travel immediately to Nulb]
Heading to Nulb...
The new area descriptions are a nice touch, just like in the tutorial. (text taken from the original PnP module)
After the long trek, a well deserved rest in the inn.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFuddle, duddle
Wat, the barkeep, proceeds to interrogate us.
Yup, name's Wat. You new in town?
Yeah, just came in from Hommlet.
Hommlet, you say? I heard a bunch of do-gooders from there just sacked the moat house. You wouldn't be those fellars?
Yes, that's us.
Hmm. Congrats. [He looks away] I gotta go help some customers.
Well, nothing else to see here (except to click on Wat again to get the "Who are those men in the back" dialogue node, even though they haven't spawned yet)
Exiting the inn and re-entering the place, a new group of patrons emerge in the back of the hostel.
Let's ask Wat about them.
Who are those men in the back?
I don't know nuthin'. Over from Dyvers, they are. Came in last night. Got some kinda high-brow gal with 'em, came in here makin' a fuss and tellin' everyone what to do. Took up the whole second floor too, she did. Don't rightly know where she's at right now, but gods what I wouldn't pay to take a run at her. Never seen a woman like that, just sorta makes ya all warm and gushy inside, even though she's a right bitch.
Is that so?
Yup. When she first come in, these two fellers as is in here all the time drinkin' started mouthin' off about how they's got rooms upstairs an' ain't givin' 'em up. This gal doesn't say nothin,' just walks up to the one of 'em and he goes all slack-jawed like. Then she just beats him half to death. An' I mean literally beats him half to death. These other fellers just sorta stood there laughin,' 'ceptin' that older fella.
Nobody did anything about it?
Hell no. So after she's finally done with the first 'un, she looks at the other feller and tells him to drag his buddy outside. Then she asks him how much gold does he got. He says "in my pocket?" an' she says "no, to your name." He says "maybe 90 gold," an' she says she's gonna charge 'im 90 gold fer beatin' his buddy half to death when this fella shoulda done it himself 'cause the first 'un was insultin' to her.
I find that hard to believe.
Heh, it do sound funny but I swear it's true. She even says as she's bein' nice and givin' this feller a discount 'cause she enjoyed beatin' his buddy so much. Guess she sorta got off on it an' all. So anyway this feller run off an' then actually come back with the gold and give it to her. Can you believe that? Guess he figgered he didn't want what his buddy got and she just might do it iffin' he didn't do just like she said.
Was that the end of it?
Well I guess these fellers here took her over to the Snakepit after so she could have some fun, an' word is she bought up the whole joint. Had some kinda day-long scene over there an' all with all the gals at the same time. Guess she prefers the ladies. I tell ya, I'd sure like ta try an' cure her of that. That's one gorgeous gal, I tell ya. Ol' Wat here'd take a shot at that in about two seconds. Heh!
Is that so?
Yup. It's like this. I seen plenty-a action in my day, feller like me dontcha know. Bein' honest an' all though, I'm not too sure I could handle that gal. Looks like she'd wanna be callin' the shots and tellin' ya yer not doin' it right and sorta makin' ya feel like ya don't know yer business, if ya know what I mean. Sure would give it one hell of a go if I had a shot, though. Know what I mean?
Why yes, Wat. A fella like you would sure give it one hell of a go.
"Don't push the red button"
Let's try chatting them up a little.
Talkative bunch. We'll leave them alone for now. (text is probably placeholder)
Hello Gypsy.
I am not here to loot. What happened here?
[She spits in the dirt.] If you not thief like the others, then you be the first one in days. Forgive me, then. My name is Mona. What do you look for?
I was wondering about that building behind you. What is it?
The Brothel?! A Woman should not go in that place!
And why is that? Anything that a man may partake in, a woman may partake in as well.
Why, I've never seen such gall!
Get used to it, old girl. This is a woman's world.
A woman's world? Maybe a world where a woman doesn't know her place, I say!
Do I really look like the kind of woman to be told her place, Mona? I tell others their place. No one tells me mine.
Listen to her blather on! Just like that high-brow lass in town!
Who might that be? She sounds interesting.
Apparently.
Going inside the brothel...
