Adrift in the World [RP-focused Character]

Post by Chrysma »

A woman steps off the gangplank of a merchant's boat, on the docks of a city unknown to her. White hair bristles around her face before drifting along the breeze coming in from the sea.

Blackstone Keep is what she was told the name of this place was, before she'd first boarded the ship. She didn't much care. So long as it was more ocean and land put between her and what she ran from, it was good enough.

Boards creaked beneath worn boot soles, the age of stone buildings muted in the setting sun. All things considered, it seemed standard fare; your usual port city or hold, bustling lightly as folk went to and from before heading home. Standing towards an edge of the pier, she fished out a crumpled letter from her pack to read over its contents. In looking for work, she'd stumbled upon someone who seemed entirely convinced there was some great evil on the cusp of returning.

Talk to anyone too deep into old or religious texts and you'll see "signs" everywhere, about any and everything.

Whatever, it was a good, up-front payment. And if she happened to find extra supplies in the mix, all the better for her. So here she was refreshing herself on some crypt, hidden somewhere near this keep, as the first of who-knows how many. She cursed lightly under her breath as she came off the dock and onto solid ground. Her coinpurse would only last her a little longer, which meant short-lived creature comforts unless she could find something in the between time.

After asking around, she was finally pointed in the direction of the Keep's only inn and tavern. When asked for a name to be put for the reservation of quarters--

"Signe. Ashara Signe."
