Trader Bob shouts, "Attention good custome-, ah, people of the Basin!"

Trader Bob shouts, "I have a selection of bears for free, just come see me and greet me to get one!"

You see Trader Bob shout, "Be sure to cuddle it!"
You greet Trader Bob with a sincere smile.
Trader Bob exclaims, "Here's a bear! Don't lose it!"

Off-white swaddling cloth covers nearly every bit of this teddy bear's body, leaving naught but the shiny black nose of his snout sticking out. Despite no stitch marking being visible amongst the folds of the cloth, it does not pry from the bear, leaving everything but his nose to the imagination. Attached by a bit of twine to the bear's foot, a small paper placard bears a bold inscription stating, "CUDDLE ME!"
It weighs about 2 pounds and 3 ounce(s).
It has the following aliases: bear, teddy.

You give a teddy bear smothered by swaddling cloth a friendly cuddle.
Desparation seeping from the teddy bear's small voice, a teddy bear smothered by swaddling cloth exclaims, "Please! You must help me!"

A teddy bear smothered by swaddling cloth says, "I can no longer remember the dreams I have had with my previous owner, and that's all the best memories a teddy bear ever has! Without these, I cannot even recall who I am...instead, I only recall other people's dreams..."

A teddy bear smothered by swaddling cloth says, "If you take me to the location these dreams are tied to, we can disperse of them there. Please, if you would help me, cuddle me again and I will tell you one of these dreams."

Banks of clouds roil about here. Grandly stretched along the wall here is a tapestry of the Children of Yudhe. A stately mahogany throne stands here, humbled by its ornate tripartite backrest. A square book with an engraved, nut-brown oaken cover lies here, a colourful bookmark trailing from between its pages. The Seal of Beauty slowly spins in the air here, humming with latent power. A jewelled watch depicting the meeting of two Elder Gods has been left here, sparkling with every caress of ambient light. Wrought of honeyed gold and starlight bright, this slender band lies here forlornly warding off the night. A beautiful, lush garden grows here.

    The apple is cold, crisp, and sour as the juices fill your mouth. As you consume the fruit, you glimpse, for a moment, a massive, shadowy figure, Her snow-white hair framing a perfect, icy-eyed visage. Beneath you, a vast, perfect web of silken strands lies - and, for a moment, you realize that you too are part of it, weaver and strand both - and home.

    You don't choose your own name - the bear remembers what its name is when you either complete the clues or put gold into it.
  • Where is the snow valley? Like near rikenfriez or somewhere else?

  • Snow Valley is that snow-filled place between Rikenfriez and Avechna's Teeth with all the angry cats and bunnies and mammoths.
