Emotions Legend
[quote][b]Remus (Jan 04, 2005 01:15 a.m.):[/b] Cale did not like Guildsport. The noise and the crowds and the stink were all good reasons, but not Cale’s reasons. What Cale disliked most about the city was the waiting. For five or six days at a time he was far from home and totally useless. He was not needed by his men, for they were making the most of their time in the hub city, in taverns and brothels and gutters. He was not needed to care for his cargo, nor to arrange for his next shipment—that was what he paid his agent Doren for. And he did not need to worry about the logistics of the next journey, for that was the responsibility of his second, Riham. What little interest the city had ever held for Cale had long since been spent; he had seen the sights, and found them for the most part not to his liking. Cale was not a city man. He even preferred the sands of Vesari to this place. On the road to Lahkis, at least, he had a purpose. So it was that Cale was updating his maps when Riham arrived. The maps were among the best to be had of the region between Guildsport and Lahkis, with many subtle details he had added himself over the years. Presently he was adjusting the locations of significant bandit presence as observed en route to the city. He did not expect much difficulty returning to Lahkis, as their cargo would be much less valuable by volume and the bandits knew it; nevertheless, it helped to pass the hours. Two knocks sounded at the door, and Cale looked up from his table. “Enter,” he said, rolling the papers to obscure their contents.[/quote]
