Night has fallen.

You are still a few hours from town. Make camp here or push on?

You arrive at the town. The only lights are the ones in the tavern where you previously spent a meal.

You attempt to claim the bounty, but the town does not have enough quatloonies to pay you more than 200,000 qtl. You are given a Royal Warrant to draw the rest at the nearest Royal Treasury.

You have gained 200,000 qtl.

You fall down drunk, and sleep at the bar.

There are few people in the tavern this morning, and the only tavern employee is the big barman.

Locate the nearest Royal Treasury, both by asking the barman, and also looking it up on Google Maps.

You find that the nearest Royal Treasury, there are only three, is THE Royal Treasury, at the Royal City, three days to the southwest.

Stock up on supplies and leave the town. Once you are about a mile away, summon asteroid to destroy town.

Calm the sword down, telling him it was an inappropriate joke. Read various Dawkins books to show him the light.

Logic dictates that a town that doesn't have enough money nor have suitable form of entertainment is therefore very evil and therefore must die. Command the sword to destroy the evil town and raise the dead for your undead army.

Nevertheless, convince the sword that the town is pure evil due to them having lack of funds and refusal to provide suitable entertainment and the fact that the barman was jealous of the Sword of Logic and was going to do illogical things to it therefore the town must be destroyed and the dead raised for your army. :)

But there is no guarantee that the mayor has the authority over the Royal Treasury especially with the large amounts involved.

This is a pre-emptive demanded satisfaction. The town is evil, you cannot believe what they say, now KILL KILL KILL!

Explain to the sword that I have Dissociative Personality disorder, and that one of those personalities is a crazy, evil bastard with the mind of a five year old. Tell it to protect the people if he ever takes over.

When I wake up, of course.

After regaining consciousness. Repeatedly whack the sword on any hard object, dulling the blade. Take that motherfucker. :)
