The rush of adrenaline and righteous anger that had been motivating Jub left him the moment the shopkeepers were dead, and newer, stronger feeling quickly took its place: dread. 

He hadn't been thinking to clearly when Trinket had said that greed would be their undoing, thinking they was speaking generally as some last attempt to be ominous. But no. No, turns out this plane had some tricks up its sleeve to prevent this kind of thing from happening, and by breaking the Rule of Reciprocity they had attempted to invoke just a moment ago, they'd rendered the magical items they'd just purchased useless.

[color=CCCC22]"... I hate it here,"[/color] Jub said aloud, more to himself than anyone else.

However, before he could start to dwell on what a terrible mistake they'd just made, Brutrumukk happened upon another discovery: the herbs had been swallowed by a giant fish, a fish that Brutrumukk had managed to coax close to them using bits of the previously-magical pie he'd bought. Seems like the items they had purchased weren't so useless after all.

Still, Jub very quickly realised that the herbs were going to have been rendered useless at this point, either through the water or the fish's intestinal juices. Another wonderful quirk of the Rule of Reciprocity, it seemed. However, he could perhaps still retrieve something else from the fish's stomach, likely some other treasure it had managed to swallow.

Taking a deep breath, he pointed his wand at the fish, conjuring up a spectral hand that entered the fish's mouth.
