New Scenario Informational Post: Newfound Hope

Hello children. (´_ゝ`)...*sigh*...OKAY, TIME FOR AN INFORMATIONAL POST!
Within day thirty-four of your trip to the mountains, you've found yourself in the nearby city of Lepertic. This town is hustling and bustling with plenty of business, and with the money that you guys have collected through missions and challenges, you've decided to spend a bit of that money on some upgrades.
(IF YOU'RE CHARACTERS ARE STILL ALIVE (Why wouldn't they...except for maybe Flintlock))
Flintlock has gained a longbow to shoot from a maximum distance of 175 meters.
Chris stole a spiked club with dark demonic powers...he stole it because he thought the dark aura made it look cool.
Not-Mio still keeps her signature Katana from last time you came to Not-Europe.
As for you...well...you didn't have enough money for a new sword. The shop owner found out Chris stole the mace, and you had to spend the rest of your spare money on the mace. At least your sword is in a pretty good shape.
Anyways, as you walk through the city, you see something that makes you very VERY happy. It's Not-Vince, from your last trip to Not-Europe; He's now a street prostitute making sexual advances towards you and the others (except Not-Mio of course). But that's not what makes you happy. You recall Vince dying and you stealing a bottle of vodka from his cold dead corpse, if Vince has come back to life when the world was reset, maybe...just maybe, your friends can come back after you beat the unknown evil. Only time will tell though.
