The Town Hall seems to be rather busy the past few days, with many adventurers walking in and out. It seems foreign contacts are now flooding the city in search of mercenaries for a war up north.

Two guards stood at the entrance of the town hall, waiting to guide anyone looking for work or to meet with an important official. A bounty board was situated next to the door way, with several people surrounding and reading it. It seems it was full of small time quests dealing with ordinary security problem - And a Mr.Zerkim hiring mercenaries for a campaign up north.

Perhaps a curious adventurer could go in and find this Mr.Zerkim for employment?

*Kin'Shah, whose guise was that of a High Elves, strode up to the town hall's entrance and pushed the doors open. Being naturally drawn to crowds, Kin'Shah strode up to the massive gathering of people. He pushed his way to the center of the horde, expecting something exciting, something new, something awesome! Alas, he saw naught of interest, just a board with papers upon it.
Kin'Shah decided that he had nothing better to do, and read the board. He thrusted his hands into his pockets and began to read. He mumbled the words aloud to himself, and, upon finishing his perusal, had found a particular quest that struck his interest. He grinned and excitedly walked out of the town hall, knowing where his next destination was. He mounted his steed, and began to ride...

*As Kin'Shah pushed to the centre of the horde, the horde pushed back. Clearly not all of the people in the crowd were well-mannered, gentle man who'd take being pushed away easily. The quest paper would say that Mr.Zerkim was in fact, inside the town hall. Having realized that, Kin'Shah would probably have headed inside the town hall instead of riding up north. 

Mr.Zerkim was a four-armed Qua (like all Qua), with big, brown antenna, in a rather nice suit - by Qua standard, sitting at a table near the front entrance. He seems to be talkign with two well-armed adventurers.*
Cassandra
Alright, should I finish the post I'm working on right now?

"Hello!" Kin'Shah said exuberantly as he strode towards Zerkim and those he was talking to. "I observed your parchment placed upon the quest board" Kin'Shah said, making sure to use large words so he seemed more formal, "And I'd like to participate!" Kin'Shah beamed at the trio, then bowed.
Keith
The Qua seems a bit confused, scratching his head and antenna,"My... Patchment? Yes? What?" Perhaps the word was too big for a non-native speaker of the common language,"You seeking work up north to fight slave raiders. Yes? Very lucrative reward, twenty and thirty silver a day, and loot, too, but we take small comission, maybe one-tenth or two-tenth."

He held his hands together. If Kin'Shah accepted the offer, he'd be offered a ticket on a ship to the north, and taken there after a week of smooth sailing. And from there, they could find plenty of fights to be had.
Cassandra
"Yes, of course. I've heard of the Slave stuff going on up North, I'm simply amazed that there's still sapient people being considered property." He said exuberantly. "When do we leave? Will I be given my own weapons and armor?" Kin'Shah seemed rather excited considering he was talking about war and slavery.
Keith
"..." The Qua scratched his antenna even more,"Ah... Yes. You must be a steppe elf then, I hear your people are very against slavery." Kin'shah may or may not know, that High Elves were the founder of *The* Most pro-slavery Empire in this part of Ramul Ta. Perhaps that title is contested by Salvainia now, however...

"But this is also slaver land, though slaves treated better, maybe a bit better. But you not saying against slavery too much here. Not good idea, bad ears hear, yes yes?"

*The Qua explained.*

"As for weapons and armor, we poor tribe in north. But we buy many mass-produced equipments, and when you of arriving, we can lending you of gears, then you kill dirty enemies, or take them captive and ransom, and then you pay back for the gears and buy them, yes?"
Cassandra
*Kin'Shah's brow furrowed and he balled his hands. "Yeah, alright." He said stiffly. Kin'Shah was absolutely bursting with opinions on slavery, but heeded the Qua's warning and kept them to himself. "Do you have any more men? This is a very dangerous mission, and I wouldn't feel safe if it was only us." He gestured towards Qua and the two men he was talking to.
Keith
*The Qua pointed at other adventurers gathered outside,*"Yes, we've hired many many people to do the fighting. After all, high elves have many money made from this trade, and they have many mercenaries to fight us... So we hire many to of fighting. You also have many brave, strong soldiers from our tribe.

Many of them, we Qua are numerous, we are very strong." And indeed, his race were known for their number and strength... Probably why they're targeted for slavery in the first place.
Cassandra
"Alright, when will we be going then?" Kin'Shah said, the stiffness fading from his tone. "And how long will the commute be?" At the conclusion of his speech, Kin'Shah hastily reached into his pocket, grabbed a fuzzy, blonde mess, and feigned a yawn while stuffing the hair into his mouth.
Keith
"You will go this afternoon, in three hours, a ship take off. And then maybe after one week, or two weeks if wind is bad, you will arrive at the port of Gumrak, in the south. It is free city, neutral between Itchsu and Elves. You see bad soldiers there, you see good soldiers there. We ready and buy Macen weapons and armour and make expedition there.."

"Men there will prepare you and tell you about the situations there."

*If wanted, Kin'Shah could have a very quick and smooth trip, and timeskip immediately to their arrival.*
