I put the first book in the spreadsheet for you without the date - you don't have a date listed. That should be enough of a sample for you to finish the rest. Just fill in the date and put the rest of the books in. Then resubmit in the check-in thread.

Thank you very much for the help. It is really appreciated.

You have conceded this quest. You will never know whether that bag of flour was more than just a plain bag of flour. You never took a moment to ask why it was locked up in a bank in the first place. Banks don't typically lock up bags of flour. Maybe it was magical. But alas, you have made your decision...

Quest #2

After a night in a tavern, each member of the party wakes up in the body of another member with no memory of what happened. One party member's body is gone, however, their mind instead inside a sentient item... a bag of beans.

Are these magic beans? Maybe, maybe not; plant them and find out. Worst case scenario, you could eat them. Do you eat the beans? If they are magic beans, how do you use them? Can you get everyone back in their bodies?

If you eat the beans, spell out BEANS
B
E
A
N
S

If you think they are magic beans, start here
Plant the beans
Read a book with dirt on the cover
Read a book with all the letters of BEANS in the title
Read a book with water on the cover
Read a book with a sun on the cover

Step 2: Find a solution to the body problems listed above. Use book titles BUT please use filler words as needed to tell me your solution. Minimum of 4 books. (everyone will do step 2 no matter the choices above)

For those of you playing solo... you will play this as if you were a member of the party experiencing this issue. How would you solve this? You can play as any member the party, one that is in another body or the beans. But you must present a solution.
