It had been about 3 days now that Tyreus had been walking, his destination was just over the next hill, in fact. After hearing stories of the fog descending on the land, towns began to fear, and started making groups to explore the fogs and hopefully stop them. Mysterious creatures lurked within, usually killing any travelers foolish enough to think it was just regular fog.  One such town which was gathering a band of adventurers was Alisar, the capital of the Freelands of Amerys. Alisar was located in the countryside of the Jhoren Hills, and was a quaint little place that attracted merchants and travelers alike because of its fantastic climate, closeness to the sea, and scenery.<br/>As Tyreus approached the town gates, a guard stopped him, simply asking his business.<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="color: royalblue">Looks like they have been more cautious with the fogs spreading lately...</span></span><br/><br/><span style="color: royalblue">"I come to head to the tavern.

And can you tell me where the adventurers exploring the fogs will meet?"</span><br/><br/>The room grew silent at the mention of the fogs. Even though they were hundreds of miles away, rumors of the beasts within creeped down even to Alisar.<br/><br/>"Aye, I'll have the maid get our best steak ready, and bring you some of our finest ale! As for the..adventurers..I believe they will probably be meeting in that corner near the door. If you could, though, please don't talk about<span style="font-weight: bold">that</span>subject too loudly."<br/><br/><span style="color: royalblue">"Thank you sir,"</span>Tyreus replied, and he took a seat at a table near where the bartender gestured.
