Shadows have been drawn far across the land as you depart the merchant's house. The day is increasingly coolish and the wind from the northern plains is cold and steady. There is no sign of Fintain, a feeling at once familiar but also unsettling. You see a small party of riders, spears aloft, riding along the river bank to the north. They cross the river at its ford pushing hard to reach the closer bank. A smithy's hammer and anvil rings out to the south.
The riders move up the path towards the hill fort, disappearing through the gate directly ahead. Making your way along the mud-caked path between buildings you join the main trail leading up to the hill fort. Above the gate, a green pennant with a white war hammer flaps desperately in the breeze. You see a lone figure atop the gate. He leans backwards from the parapet as he sees you, returning a moment later to gaze down towards you.
Moments later, the familiar figure of Joda, the less than friendly soldier stalks out the gate to meet you.
"Returned I see. Very well. The Lady Preda has requested ye be brought to the main hall upon yer arrival. Ye shall have no weapon while ye walk these grounds. Ye may take leave of them at the gate hall," His tone brooks no disagreement. It seems if you are to enter the fort, you will need to surrender your weapons.
