killing someone

[Etoile]

When i killed a guy in cantr while traveling, i didn't get anything from his inventory. was that a glitch or whats going on?

All his stuff will end up on the ground in one of the towns at one end of the road or the other but it never ends up in your inventory.

thanks

Yeah, it goes to the place where he left from. No matter if you're 99% done travelling, if you die, the body rolls back to the starting point. Don't ask me where's the sense in that.

All roads in Cantr are uphill, no matter which direction you walk.

And that's not fantasy or contrary to laws of physics / the world as we know it, just ask anyone on their way home after a heavy night out

Not true.

It falls behind him. Therefore, a thief can leave town, be talked into coming back, mistakenly killed by latecomers, and the goods will not return to the town he stole from, but the neighbors where he initially was running to.

Which is true...

... unless he is standing still, In which case the goods end up in a pre defined town (of the two at either end of the road) . Under this case, the same town on that road will always get the goods, regardless of the travel history of the victim. This is related to the standing still and turning round issue.
