Tensions and Travel

by Wren Birk

Fortudo is beautiful. The people, not so much. Right there at the Cadgegap they took Rhea's potions. I mean, I've been carrying them around for a while now, I guess they were mine at this point. I wasn't planning to sell them or anything- but, she made them you know? Remember when we spent ALL DAY trying to get river water to be the color we wanted and we laughed for like hours fighting about what colors looked magical? That was a really fun day. And now they're in some pushy middle management security guard's closet. I guess it got me closer to Rive- to meeting with the Wizard of the Lake.
 
My unease continued when the moment we entered town we were told that the kingdom that we're currently standing in( with the Kingdoms of Decartis, Ebbon, Ruuslia, and Salia .. because of course) are now is officially in conflict with the kingdoms of Begolia, Ferox, and Trinum. Color me uncomfortable. Celrin hardly seemed surprised and not near enough as worried as she should be, in my opinion.
 
Luckily we were told our contact is in the a place called The Under-City. Which is nice, because, you know.. if you're worried about being seen as a spy, an enemy of the state, or a traitor I feel like a place called The Under-City will probably have denizens that would be more...forgiving of such things. Not that I am any of those things. But you know, best to lay low. So that's what we're doing now. Laying low, which is nice to be honest. I haven't had much time to .. do homework.
 
So we're waiting now in a tavern. I know I've already gone through my notes but I must be missing something about that spell he's talking about. Luckily I have all this time to lay low now! Yep. I'm good at laying low, at reading and being quiet and unnoticed. I know how to mind my own business. I'm good at it. Need time for my own business. Laying low... just.... laying low.
 
Hey, that man has crazy armor! I've never seen anything like that before. He's probably our contact. I should go talk to him.
