Tagging:<strong>Everyone</strong><br/><br/>The festivities have been going on for many an hour before a proper event pole is hitched. A small hole, 2 foot deep is dug out and into this a sturdy log, striped of bark and left to soak in the marsh for two days. The soft, yielding wood allow nails, knifes and even stones to mark it. For important messages, strips of painted cloth are pinned there, for the less important, simple scratch marks. Most of the messages are farmers looking for help in preparation for the harvest, the rune of work, a number, a rune to identify the farmer by, the meeting place assumed to be at the foot of the hill at next dawn.<br/><br/>Two strips draw the attention of anyone capable of carrying a sword, as both promise a large payment:<br/><br/><div align="center"><em>140 gold<br/><br/>guards for Crorn<br/>Estulies</em><br/></div><br/>and<br/><br/><div align="center"><strong>Cattle stolen by harpies. Return them <br/>and at least 3 of the hellish creatures dead <br/>for 700 gold. Headwoman Mogdi</strong></div><br/>Before the pole was erected, people would just approach those that seemed like they could help and ask them. Even after the event pole is up, some still prefer this method. One individual, an elf with messy hair and a broken, red nose, still prefers this method, offering 500 gold coins for the head of half-orc Craul. No one seems interested in taking him up on his offer however, indeed shoving him on his way often with an angry shout, as he doesn't look like he has 5 gold, and even if he could pay, the law keepers might object to this particular job.
