[QUOTE="Rybaer, post: 1043075, member: 118"] [b]Bellows Axegrinder[/b] Grinder accepted his pay, a meager twenty silver coins, from the barge's captain. "Shiny coins! Shiny coins!" squaked Trinket, the raven perched on his shoulder. "Thank you, captain," Grinder said as he pocketed the coins deep within his cloak. "May the river continue to bring you favorable business." They shook hands and Grinder tipped the brim of his hat to the rest of the barge's crew as he walked away down the pier. Weaving between crates and sacks, he made his way into Alten's Rock. Striding through the streets of the town, Grinder studied the buildings and the people. Alten's Rock represented the furthest he had ever traveled from his birthhome. Everything about it was smaller than Collina, but it was still a respectable city and bustled with activity. [I]Now I just have to figure out how a wizard starts a proper adventuring career[/I], he thought to himself. "Look for food," Trinket said and leapt into the air. Through their empathic link, Grinder urged the familiar to stay out of trouble. He wondered what odd trinket the raven would bring back to him. Often, Grinder teasingly accused Trinket of being one of the most obsessive thieves in the land...given the bird's inclination to collect small, shiny objects. Grinder called to a young man who was crossing his path and inquired about the best place in town to get a good drink, a hot meal, and inquire about business in the city. "Ah, that's easy," the young man replied. "You'll want to go to the Hog's Back Inn. Just keep on this road until you reach the town square. You can't miss it." With quarterstaff in hand and a spring in his step, Grinder set off in search of the inn. [/QUOTE]
