It is customary for the proprietor of the Inn of the Crossed Swords to throw out anyone who cannot pay his board and lodging. This makes your position difficult as the curfew bell was rung nearly an hour ago and anyone found in the streets an hour after its sounding is liable to be imprisoned by the city watch.

Rather than face imprisonment and the possible failure of your quest, you can sell some of your equipment in order to raise cash. The fat-bellied mercenary who took your bets will pay the following prices for these (but only these) items:

- Sword—3 Gold Crowns
- Dagger—1 Gold Crown
- Broadsword—6 Gold Crowns
- Short Sword—2 Gold Crowns
- Mace—3 Gold Crowns
- Ruby Ring—10 Gold Crowns
- Warhammer—5 Gold Crowns
- Spear—4 Gold Crowns
- Axe—2 Gold Crowns
- Bow—5 Gold Crowns
- Quarterstaff—2 Gold Crowns
- Silver Brooch—7 Gold Crowns

You will need a minimum of 2 Gold Crowns in order to stay the night at the Inn of the Crossed Swords.

If you wish to sell him some equipment, make the necessary adjustments to your Action Chart and turn to 336.

If you wish to keep your equipment, or if you do not have items of interest to the mercenary, you must take your chances with the city watch and turn to 138.
