- Talk to Garrick the blacksmith about the West Road.

- Sell what you do not need to Mira or Garrick. Right click sells one, shift and right click sells the stack.

Going home
Sit down, then hold G for ten seconds. A column of light rises around you and takes you back to Greenhollow. Standing up, letting go, a hit or death stops it.
Death
