Fun detected.

Picking herbs increases your wanted level now? You've got to be kidding me.
This entire system of limiting your time in the Maw each day (without it being annoying as hell and dangerous) is really dumb.

Get a job man, then the system won't feel so bad and if you already have a job consider getting some exercise in.

This is so funny. Jailer is like "He's stealing my flowers! He is a threat to me. Increase the levels!"
