<div class="floatright">(http://orig11.deviantart.net/2386/f/2012/197/f/4/city_guard_by_windmaker-d57hjsk.jpg)</div>The city watch stood guard at the gates and several guardsmen kept their eyes on Evelyn suspiciously as she approached them.<br/>"If you are expected you should already have the papers you need miss. Otherwise we can't let you in unless you agree to being escorted to the guardhouse, where you have to identify yourself and any and all items of trade you wish to take or bring from the city, the name of the vessel you arrived and plan to leave on, the expected duration of your stay and the nature of your business. Your belongings, equipments and items in your possession as well as pieces you wish to move in or out of the city will be taken into inventory and examined by my superiors before they can approve anything. Should you have a criminal record your entry request will be denied without further investigations. If approved, you will recieve a permit withing the next three days, a document requiring the signature of both a watch captain and yourself. Should you be found conducting any illegal activities within the city, the document will be revoked effective immediately and you will be tried while in custody. Any questions?" the guard recited the long speech almost in a monotone voice, probably something he knew by heart and was bored of, but protocol required he recite it multiple times a day.
