The Enemy Within, Part 2: Shadows Over Bögenhafen
First Thread
The Berebeli comes in to dock at the wharves of Bögenhafen. The waterfront of this walled town is lined with narrow-fronted buildings and warehouses. Josef explains that the town council charges tax per foot of frontage, hence the buildings here are long and thin.
"They'd tax your farts if they could figure out a way," says Josef, "and then make a law forcing you to serve beans with every meal. Still, all told you can still turn a good profit in this town. Trade from all over the western edges of the Empire passes through here and the Merchant's Guild is on of the most powerful in town."
As the Berebeli is made fast to the wharf, Josef indicates a nearby building, narrow and step-roofed in the Marienburg style.
"The offices of the Haagen family," he explains. "I've got business there selling my cargo, and it might take the rest of the day. Everyone else will be off enjoying the Schaffenfest." He sighs wistfully. "You may as well go and see the fair whilst you're here," he says. "It's definitely not to be missed. And who knows, maybe you'll find some of your Purple Wotsits there."
