[QUOTE="JustinCase, post: 6980474, member: 6776182"] Leaving his row boat behind in the docks, Xobruentyvir Aenovindë - Xobru for short - enters the city of his dreams. It is busy, crowded, bustling. The slender, darkhaired elf wanders the streets with a perpetual look of amazement on his face. So many people, so many buildings, so many sounds, so many thoughts! He had visited some cities in his days as a sailor, but he usually kept to the harbor and besides, Albion was bigger than any he had seen so far. The elf made for a curious sight himself, carrying a bucket of water around in which an octopus sat, looking over the edge at the city. Apart from its bulbous head looking around, the aquatic creature remained motionless as it observed the busy townsfolk. Only when they passed a large pond did one of the tentacles twitch towards the water, which rippled before returning to its stillness after a moment. Xobru was overwhelmed. Obviously this was the city he was directed to, but where to now? After walking around for an hour or so, the elf decided to find a place to gather his thoughts. Looking around the street he found himself in, he saw the familiar signpost for a tavern. He could not recognize the symbol, but in Common its name was written below; The Frosty Blaze. How curious. The elf enters the tavern and looks around. Many patrons in here today, of many races both familiar and exotic to him. Some Xobru has never even seen before! Dwarves, humans, even a lone elf; those he recognizes. There is also a gnome; he has heard of the creatures but never saw one before. But there is one he has never seen nor heard about; a huge man, almost a giant, sits on a log near the fireplace. Despite the proximity to the fire, Xobru decides to find a seat near that fascinating person. Xobru takes an empty chair and drags it to the half-giant's table. [B]"Mind if I join you, big man?" [/B]he asks the goliath. The elf does not wait for an answer as he sits down, placing his octopus-filled bucket on the table before motioning for the bartender to get his order of whatever liquid seems to be the standard for the other patrons.
