"Rincewind reached the Broken Drum at a dead run, and was just in time to collide with a man who came out backwards, fast. The stranger's haste was in part accounted for by the spear in his chest."My reading of this book is weird because this seems to me like an exciting chapter opening, even though the only difference between this page and the previous is that the number of this page is a multiple of 15. Still, it's exciting and suspenseful!
So Rincewind has gone back to the inn (this must still be flashback) to find a rather extreme brawl going on (stabbings and bitings and crossbowings, oh my!). Rincewind runs upstairs, distracts someone with mumbo-jumbo, and then kicks him in the groin.
This is actually amazing.
Twoflower is asleep but is disappointed that Rincewind didn't wake him up for the brawl, as he wants to experience 'genuine Morporkian life'. Oh dear, it seems that Twoflower has been reading too many fantasy novels and has a rather idealised version of life on the Discworld. He'd probably get on well with Anne Shirley.

| A book series I WON'T be reviewing, but maybs Twoflower's been reading it? |
Rincewind isn't a fan of heroes (this books seems to want to unglamourise them lol) and he lies to Twoflower about who some of the people in the tavern brawl were:
Twoflower has a camera and no-one knows what it is. Is the Counterweight Continent much technologically advanced? Also a MYSTERIOUS ALBATROSS OMG. Also Twoflower is an insurance agent (is his original language English?? In that case what does Rincewind speak) which Rincewind also cannot understand.
Twoflower is so absurdly rich that he's just buying everyone off and taking photos of them.
LOLOL Rincewind stole some the photos of the Whore Pits to keep for himself
Wait, there's a little man in the camera? That's not technology. Also has Twoflower been kidnapped??? Oh well I know he'll meet up with Rincewind again because we're still in FLASHBACK LAND
"The enormity of this lie was so great that its ripples did in fact spread out on one of the lower astral planes as far as the Magical Quarter across the river..."Oh dear.
