A tengu in Monk's robes sits in the tavern with you all.
"I'm telling you all, that was not the real Grand master Torch! Think about it; Every time we met him for a briefing before, he was naked and in a bath to sooth his burns. Then he would stand up, show us all of him *gag*, and give us the mission."
He pauses for nods of comprehension. And possibly disgust.
"Now then, the way I see it, no naked bath, no Grand master Torch. This was obviously a ploy of a careless infiltrator that forgot this key detail. I'll bet you 50 birdseed on it!"
With that, he grins, caws, and Monk jumps away.
