Ankh Hints
Get back my single silver coin.
1 of 13: This is added to your to-do list after you escape your home (see "Find a way out, but not through the door!") and talk to the mercenaries who are waiting outside.
2 of 13: You have to keep choosing conversation topics until you hand over the silver coin you found in the house earlier. Now you've got to get that coin back!
3 of 13: Talk to Tarok to see if there's any way he'll return the silver coin.
4 of 13: He refuses to give it back because now he's got some money to buy food with. On the other hand, he and Blackfoot can't leave because they're afraid the architect (Assil's father) will get away.
5 of 13: So volunteer to get them some food in exchange for your silver coin back.
6 of 13: The bazaar is likely to have many food items available, so run down the road that leads around your home and to the bazaar.
7 of 13: When you enter the bazaar, ask Volcano (the guy who greets you) where you can get a tasty meal.
8 of 13: He'll refer you to the fish burger place in the lower market, to the right of the big plaza.
