This thread is my first one on this site, i plan to only concentrate on this for the time being,
anyone can join in and make this more interesting, and i mean EVERYONE; just write and let's see where this goes, thank you
Beginnings, everyone had to take their first steps someday, right? That was precisely what Theraffius was doing right now,
he nearly just got here, into this strange land and he already had decided to explore a bit, with that in mind, he had entered the forest lying in the vicinity of the village, the tall trees and overgrown bushes offered shade from the sun now high in the sky, and you could hear squirrels and rabbits skittering about in their never-ending cycle of life,
he had walked for some time, and yet he didn't really know what he was looking for, maybe he could just return to the village and try to find a job? But he had indeed heard that a band of ruffians was hiding somewhere in here,
why not just try to bring them to the town guard? Getting tired of walking in circles and with some idea of what to do with his time, he set the course for the way back to town, after a long walk stumbling through undergrowth and vines, he was nearing the village and interrupted a younger man trying to negotiate with a very stingy merchant
"Excuse me, wherever would i go for a stiff one and some talk?"
The man crooked his head to the side, half looking at him, while still trying to get a sack of potatoes for less money than a poor beggar would make in a day
"You would go to The Drunken Beggar, just south from here, down that alley and to the left, can't miss it"
Theraffius thanked the man and offered him some copper, with a goal and the man's directions in mind, he entered the Drunken Beggar, ordering a jug of beer, he sat down at the counter, the inn was very crowded, very dirty, and smelled like someone reguarly choose to see their breakfast again,
striking conversation with the inn-owner about a job proved to be worthwhile
"Ye sure i know 'bout work, i'm ta go-to-man for anyone needing work in this city, ya just sit nice and easy over at ta table over there while i ask around, eh?"
Taking him up on the offer, Theraffius offered him his thanks, and dragged himself and his beer over to the empty table, funnily enough being the only table made of a relatively more sturdy wood in the inn,
someone please just have some work for me
