Setting
Mostly a collection of traveling merchants and entertainers have made this ground their resting spots on many occasions. There always is one group occupying it at all times. Because of the heavy commerce these people bring to the country, the king makes sure to keep it heavily guarded wit h soldiers.
As he finally arrived there, Kuro was greeted by two soldiers whom were standing in front of the camp entrance.”It must be hard to travel alone without a companion, right?” one of the guards asked Kuro before letting him in. The only answer that was given to the guard was a shrug before Kuro finally made his way in. “What a cocky bastard” the guard said to his friend. “Maybe he was weary after his long journey” the other guard. “At least he could smile or answered my question…” was some of the conversation he could heard before the sound of people bartering, promoting and selling their stuff reached his ear.
In front of him was a small group of travelers and merchants. There was also a caravan which seem like they were packing up their stuff, to stock up in the city, he presumed. Despite all of this, what’s really caught Kuro attention was the place was heavily guarded by a bunch of soldiers. Kuro doesn’t have any interest with all the wares that was sold and just wandering aimlessly inside the campground. Many gave him a strange look while the others do not even care about his presence. The merchant especially gave him a, “you tried to steal my wares, don’t you”, look.
It was then a female merchant called out to him. Without much thought, Kuro made his way to the woman. Upon arriving, he saw that all of their stuff had finally packed up. “We saw that you were wandering aimlessly in the crowd. We taught that your companions unintentionally leave you here” the woman thought a bit before continuing his speech “Maybe they were heading to the city, so would you care to join us”. Kuro just nod to the lady question while he was puzzled about his companion. “Maybe what the lady said is true” Kuro thought to himself as he didn’t have any memories except about his sword. “Good, it never bad to have another bodyguard on our journey” she said with a smile on her face. Thus, began Kuro journey with the caravan as they made their way to the city.
