[QUOTE="Painfully, post: 1461165, member: 601"] Day 1 -- Morning in Holdmarch Simon and I have arranged travel East to Jalston, where we intend to sell our goods at a fair price, and a brisk pace. The coach driver we have hired says we should arrive there by dusk. I look forward to the change of scenery, as Holdmarch holds little to entertain my wits, but for the dice and drinking games common among the soldiers here. Day 1 -- Jalston Aidan, our coach driver, suggested an inn which we found out caters to members of the merchants’ guild. After waiting on the doorman to tell us he had no rooms, we made haste for the gates, to stay at the local temple of Toeffrun. We had just gotten inside the city gates, where we were greeted by followers of Darien. It had been a long day of traveling, and I had no desire to spend time telling them about what odd creatures their mothers must have mated with to produce such offspring as they. So, at their insistence, I drew my sword to keep them at bay, and told them that Simon and I had more important business to attend. Of course, this wouldn’t satisfy them. Their numbers gave them confidence, and rightly so, seeing as how I proceeded to get pummeled by several of them before Simon attracted a guard’s attention to the matter. Had this affair been a fair fight, I do not doubt they would be crying for my mercy. [Cyril got pummeled down to 1 subdual hit point! The guards turned out to be watching from the gates, which were right next to the temple of Darien.] Simon and I made our way to the local temple of Toeffrun after the fight. I was in no shape to boast of my fighting skills that night, and in no mood to talk until I had rested. Not even an hour in the city, and already I had a score to settle. The head Toeffrunite priest there encourages the purging of sins by flailing one’s own back. After letting him know that the local Dariens were happy to purge my sins for me that night, I let myself rest in a room they kindly provided. Tomorrow, Simon and I shall proceed to see what fortune finds for us at the bazaar. [/QUOTE]
