[QUOTE="KirayaTiDrekan, post: 6512141, member: 6755061"] [B]Ngoya[/B] The guards seem impressed as they pocket the coins. The "contraband" guard points his thumb back behind him through the gates, "I don't know, but maybe you could ask him. He's on the lookout for new recruits. You can find him at the garrison, a few blocks that way. You're clear to enter the city. Have a nice day." This last is said with a smirk as the guards turn their attention to the next person in line. The main gate through the metal wall is divided into two sections, to better prevent a breach. Upon passing the guards, Ngoya has to take a sharp left and proceed 30 feet through an enclosure with murder holes above and spear lines to the sides (similar to arrow slits where warriors can shove spears through relatively small holes to attack any passing through the gate area while being relatively protected from counter attack). Another sharp right brings Ngoya to the secondary gate, manned by another pair of guards, though their duty seems to be simply to observe as they do not stop anyone passing through. The secondary gate opens onto a main thoroughfare with shops lined up on either side and a crowded marketplace atmosphere as vendors try to sell their wares to newcomers. Ngoya is almost immediately accosted by a fruit merchant selling what he says are rare and exotic apples from the eastern realms. Just beyond him is a woman selling fabrics and after that a halfling selling pastries. Beyond the immediate rush of vendors, there are several taverns and inns catering to travelers. The main thoroughfare continues beyond the taverns and the city quiets some after that, as the buildings become residential - tall buildings with stairways on the outside, apparently housing multiple families. Alleys and narrower streets branch off here, creating a dizzying labyrinth. Homeless beggars line the main thoroughfare in this area, hoping for a few coins or a bit of food. Ngoya can see the fourth wall of the city ahead, a partially dismantled stone wall, its pieces obviously used in the construction of some of the buildings Ngoya just passed. [/QUOTE]
