Sure, the locals treated him with great respect, but the novelty of townsfolk curtsying and doffing their hats to him had worn off quickly, and he began to find it embarrassing - annoying even. He decided to leave on a morning when he had growled at a serving girl in the Jester's Pride, for the crime of calling him "m'lord". He didn't want to be rude to the Julkounians, who had been through so much, so he couldn't stay.He returned to Daggerford on his own, and contrary to Tommi's pleasant trip, his was a slog on foot in the rain, alone. It wasn't all horrible - Angis was most comfortable travelling along a road lost in his own thoughts. Though he would never admit it, even to himself, but he had enjoyed the company of a small, tight-knit group, like the Doughty Daggerfordians had become, and in spite of himself, he was very lonely.This lonely feeling grew worse over the following weeks. He joined a caravan to Waterdeep, and he kept such a careful watch, that it avoided all trouble whatsoever. (He had, at one point, spotted a group of orcs on a hill, but he organised so strong a defensive line, that the orcs chose to move on instead of attacking). The caravan's guards had congratulated him on a bloodless victory, but he would take no credit.In Waterdeep, with a bustling crowd at every turn, Angis felt even more alone. He turned, as he often did, to drink, and he began to make mistakes, which were very unlike him. Acting on information that was months out of date, he unnecessarily added guards to a caravan, which cost his guild some profit. Returning to Daggerford, he showed up to "help" load a wagon nearly drunk off his feet. The workers had needed to load the wagon without him, and to load him as well, and returned him to his rooms at the Silver Flood Inn.[ooc]Poor Angis. I love him, but he's a wreck. We need to get him back adventuring STAT.[/ooc]</blockquote>
