<span style="color: #FF0080">You find yourself in a small port village located at the tip of a short peninsula. On the left side of the peninsula, there is a shipyard with many boats and ships; on the right side, there is a wide stretch of beach. The village is actually a tourist destination for the wealthy, but as it is currently winter, the streets are bare of tourists and the various paraphernalia that follows them. This village is also one of the first villages that lay between elven and human lands. Today, the weather is extremely cold caused by a strong breeze coming off the frigid waters. <br/></span><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Ryelle stood in the villageâ€™s small center courtyard. She was sheltered by most of the icy breeze from the buildings around her, but she still shivered uncontrollably. Why had she thought this would be a good place to find people to join her mission? The streets were practically empty of all people, besides those rushing about on their business who gave her weird looks for standing there and shivering. She grumbled under her breath, saying a choice elven curse word. â€œOkay,â€ she said in Common, turning to face her sole companion. â€œWhat do we need again?â€<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Tom had been dutifully scanning the courtyard he was standing in. There didnâ€™t seem to be any threat here. Most of the people were rushing about and paying him and his companion little mind. Nevertheless, he kept his club hoisted high in the air as if any minute he would need to crush someoneâ€™s skull with it. He heard his companion grumble and glanced at her momentarily. She looked icy cold, near freezing, or was the freezing bit his imagination? He wasnâ€™t that cold himself; but then again, he was wearing a heavy fur draped about his shoulders. He smiled to himself for minute, grateful fur his fur even if it did make him seem uncivilized. He turned his head again to look at his companion as she spoke. â€œA cleric,â€ he answered her in a gruff accent. â€œAnd maybe some magic people too ad more fighters.â€ He actually wasnâ€™t really sure what their mission was, but those three were useful no matter the mission.
