"You just *know* a guard will come at the wrong moment," Carthrat whispered. "May'swell find an inn or something and wait 'till tomorrow."

[Carthrat]

Carthrat goes in search of the universal inn, meanwhile trying to work out some kind of plan of what to do next..

[CyMage]

Cy followed behind.  Making sure nobody was around, he dispelled the Invisibility along the way.

[Anastasia]

You find an inn three blocks down. It is a simple affair, with a small front area leading directly to the hallways and rooms. Two Silver coins buy your beds for the night, and sleep comes soon after.

*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Once you have slept, eaten and set up, it is mid/latish morning. It is a partly cloudly day, with mid level cirrus clouds dotting the sky.

[CyMage]

"Ok, lets pay a visit to our soon to be haunted blacksmith."

[Carthrat]

"Oh yeah, forgot about him. We'll do that in a sec, I wanna find out just where we are."

Carthrat goes in search of some kind of information source; newspaper, town crier, young boys, etc.

[CyMage]

"Just don't take too long.  We can get intel from the smith if needed."  Sai waited for his partner to return.

[Anastasia]

You find no newspaper or town crier...You do see a few boys playing, as well as a few women gossiping as their children scamper.

[Carthrat]

"Ah, excuse me, ladies," Carthrat says, walking up to the nearest woman and flashing his best smile. "I, uh, got lost during my travels. Where exactly am I?"

[Anastasia]

The gaggle of women take in your question without words, the glances and expressions neutral.

"You are on Sunnare Street, sir," one of the women, a mid aged, matronly woman says.

[Carthrat]

"Ah, this may sound silly, but I meant what city, madam."

[Anastasia]

Another of the women, a slender young things blinks visibly and almost gawks. "That is silly. Did you have far too much ale last night, stranger?" she turns her nose up in a throughly snobbish manner. "I can almost smell it on your breath."

[Carthrat]

"It is silly, isn't it? But do favor me with an answer, else I shall still be lost."

[Anastasia]

"Very well, smelly lost traveler. You are in Aquatica." the snobby woman says.

[Carthrat]

Carthrat nods, still smiling

Bet you're one of those 'I have a bath every year- weather I need it or not!' types-

"Really.. I've travelled so far in so short a time? Astonishing!

Really, I must report my findings at once.. that people here are just as rude as those back home.."

Carthrat walks back to CM..
