Good thing you're stuck in here forever, you can explore the whole 0.3 square miles of land here

Laegon blinked. "...I think it hurts." He settled in his seat. "If you're so curious, why don't you try some? Might change the way you taste things."

"I'll take it distilled today." Laegon takes the cup with only slightly shaky hands. The smell of sulfur always brought him back to his time in the army.

 

He pours in vodka

"Huh . . ." Chiyo scribbled something in her notebook.

"I'm allergic to alcohol, otherwise I'd try it."

He looks at you, blinks, and pulls a violently bubbling liquid from under his bar. He pours it into a beaten copper cup, and a drop spills on the table, quickly melting through it. 
"Distilled or pure?"

 

 

"Nearly forgot about that! Did we lose anyone?"

Laegon leans towards Mike. "I'll bet a silver she doesn't keep it in," he mutters. He sips his own 50% alcohol drink.

Chiyo takes a sip. And then downed the whole thing.

"This stuff is good!" She chuckles. "I like the colors."

Mike laughs "you just wait hun!"

The walls start to melt, and everything starts to spin faster and faster. You see the entirety of your past and future roll past you in only moments.

*flash*

You see your birth/ you are in labor giving birth to your daughter/ you watch your wife give birth, "Chiyo" you think.

*flash*

You see a child triping on a rock as the rock and as the ground to which you fly. "AAAAHHH" is the only thing going through your head.

*flash*

You see yourself arriving at the tavern, Mike opens the door/ you open the door, you walk through, you watch Chiyo walk though.

*shake*

You see yourself impaled on a tree while wolves lap at your blood. You lap at the blood of the trespasser who has crossed your land.

*burning*

You are back in the present. Pain lashes through you, like lightning. Everything burns. 

Your heart bears faster and faster the rush of blood in your ears sours.

Everything goes black

Chiyo faints.

Mike catches her.

"Someone doesn't show much restraint! She's gonna have a killer hangover!"

1 hour ago, Ookla the Erased said:

"Yeah, I'm not sure about them."

"Quit the odds ey?" He watches Chiyo collapse. 

"She'll be vomiting soon"

Chiyo's eyes snap open immediately. It's kinda creepy. She glances at her mug.

"That, was an absolute ride! Reminds me of the time I had Blokonian Smoshtag mixed with Harperion red peppers!" 

She sits at the bar and continues writing at her notebook, scribbling furiously. "Can I have some more? I need to see those visions again!"

"Well huh, guess I ought to wait then." She makes a note in her notebook that you can clearly read as 'possibley good poison.'

"So is the distilled version less deadly?" Chiyo glanced at Laegon's cup.

Laegon stares at Chiyo, then back at his cup. "Excuse me one moment." Laegon reluctantly gives up a silver coin, collects his axe and exits the bar.
Cup in hand, Laegon rounds the back of his house and finds the tree from earlier, and splashes his drink into the trunk.

Which direction? North, south, west, east or some combo of them? The river flows from the north, and is to the east of town, there's a bridge just a little bit south.
