Nowhere. The Saloon sat on the edge of the Vast Plains. You'd heard stories about it's owner, a lone hunter who had a hand in the discovery of new pet species, and directing adventurers to great treasure. On the front of the building, were framed pictures of extremely rare pet species, Quartz Hunters, Pale Akails, Lost Pets... yes, you were definitely in the right place.
"Welcome to 'Nowhere' kiddo. I don't s'pose you're lost?" a gruff voice greeted you as you walked into the Saloon. You turned your head around, trying to find the voice and came face to face with a scarred Hydrolisk. It stared at you expectantly and gave a rather exasperated huff. "The name's Rick and yes, I can see you staring. A Hunter got me real good one time and I'm thankin' my lucky stars I can still see." He tapped the vicious claw marks on his eye with a claw, though it was lacking the usual webbing. "Look here kid, let me tell you a story. So I had this mate, yeah? Top bloke, bit of an adventurer, bit of a scientist. He liked travelin' about, researchin' new species, recording them and the like. Y'heard of the Akail and the Mekkayena? Yeah, that was him. Real famous fellow, but real humble type. Anyways, so the bloody fool, he just... up and vanished without a damned trace. Now, I ain't the type to be prayin' to Yepha for insight. Instead, I'm thinkin' we set up this Saloon, send out like-minded adventurers such as yourself. You... are an adventurer, right? Anyway, anyway, so you tell me where you're headed. Don't need the reason and don't want to know. But I'll note your name and destination down in this journal here, and when you've secured the area, I'll send out my boys to go check it out. Maybe we'll find something, maybe we won't."
The reptilian reached under the counter and pulled out a thick book, bound by leather and began leafing through the yellowed pages. You could see all sorts of names, locations and dates written down, but he was moving too quickly to catch anything specific. Finally, Rick stopped and pulled out a pen. "You find my friend, or any of those stupid dossiers he's been leavin' around, and you come straight back to me, got it?" he paused and ducked under the counter again, muttering something under his breath. With a groan and a heave, he pulled up a trunk onto the counter and flipped the lid open, revealing all sorts of traps and preserved food. "Alternatively, you could go huntin' for those critters the dossiers are talkin' about, and I can provide you with the bait that you need to lure 'em. I'd look myself, but I'm old and tired and I've been tryin' for years."
