Setting
The guard with steel armor, and open faced helm stared, expression blank. I from beneath my hood met gaze with him, he was maybe six and a half feet maybe taller, holding spear and shield. Stopping a yard or so away, as the four stood together in place of a door.
"What do you need from the city of Faafengarden?!" Yelled the guard standing beside the wide eyed one.
"I have come for the Keepers of Arcana!' I replied, holding up small rolled up piece of paper 'They sent for me"
The wide eyed guard put three fingers out from the grip of his spear. Not understanding this I ignored him. The guard next to him, simply shifted away to allow my entrance. The wide eyed guard seeing I had not a clue of his hand sign, relaxed and did the same as the others.
Finally into the city, I looked at the letter, and made reference at the specified time, 'when the first moon teases the sky'
That gave me a lot of time to plunder the great city of Faafengarden. I went to a pub, Giantsmarsh it was called. The Giantsmarsh was small, but it had a full house, leaving me to stand at the corner of the bar. Being in Faafengarden, wine was the only suitable liquid.
"What would ya like?" Said the bartender, a half giant who had to bend slightly.
"Dragons gold, would be nice" The bartender nodded and went to the back to look for a bottle, as I leaned on the counter thinking of the guard and his strange hand jester.
