Part Trading bag
The trading-bag is a closed container. It is scenery, by the window and not conversable. The description is "The creature has a large burlap sack that struggles to keep all the contents inside. Various odd shapes protrude through the fabric."
Understand "bag/sack" and "trading bag/sack" and "burlap" and "shape/shapes/fabric" and "protrusions" and "odd" and "merchandise/inventory" as the trading-bag.
The creature response of the trading-bag is "'What's in the bag?' you ask.[paragraph break]'That's where I keep my ware,' [the creature] responds. 'You'll find out what's there when you trade something.'"
The printed name of the trading-bag is "bag".
Instead of taking or opening the trading-bag:
say "[if the creature is present][one of][c]If you as much as think about touching the bag I will [key acidic spit]spit[endkey acidic spit] on your face, watch it melt and sell your skull as an ashtray,' [the creature] hisses.[or]You're too afraid to.[stopping][otherwise]As you approach the bag, the creature hisses at you. Better not touch it."
