You knock politely on the door and wait. There is much sound of activity within - footsteps, heavy boxes being moved and the faint jingling of bells - until the door is answered by a thuggish looking dwarf with a greasy red beard.

“I’m ‘Ginger’ Breadd’” he says aggressively. “Whaddaya want, dummkopf?”

You claim to be here to borrow a cup of sugar, and he lets you in, grumbling.

“Hey wait a minute” he says suddenly “You ain’t no baker! You’re the infamous inventor Hauptmann Entwickler, Pride of the Ausdenkerkorps! This is a restricted area. Unless you got orders to be here, you need to get outta here pronto!”

You don’t have any such orders.

If you’d like to give Ginger a thump with your mighty fist, go to 13

If you’d just like to apologise and leave, go to 03
