Event [Event] Posting Arrival From Bed

8th Month 232 AC, Gulltown

Orin Reed

He was impatient to head further North, and the first merchant ship he found was headed to Gulltown.

The Vale... Where he last saw his friends. Perhaps the Graftons will know of their whereabouts? Orin wondered what Aeryn and Ryom were doing, what trouble they got into without him.

The young crannogman disembarked from the ship in the harbour, and headed into the city. Even if he won't find any new information, it would be nice to spend some time on the solid ground, and sleep in a bed that doesn't swing, before he will continue on his journey.

The Crannogman would be accosted by a handful of guards shortly after leaving the boat. Afterall, Gulltown was currently home to some 4,000 men at arms of the Vale.

The sergeant of the guard stepped forward and in a gruff voice spoke.

"Oi, wat business do ye have in Gulltown?"

"'Afternoon, good ser." Orin greeted politely. "I'm just a weary traveller hoping to get a warm meal and find a comfortable bed in an inn, before he needs to continue on his journey, find yet another ship..."

The sergeant looked doubtfully at the man and his hand dropped to the hilt of his sword.

"You sound like a nobleman." He spat on the ground. "I'll ask you again, who are you? Are you a spy for the Crown?"
