"Well, hello their friend. No adventure; seen enough of that," Guile politely responds while reaching his hand out to shake. "No, just trying to make a fresh start."
Looking at Guile with understanding eyes, the stranger replies, "Well traveler, you have come to right place! Do you have an occupation lined out stranger?"
"Not exactly, you see I was hoping I could become a hired hand working the mines; if there are any around here that is."
"The mines! Stranger you came all the way to Almaris to work mines?" the merchant proclaims seemingly shocked.
"Yeah, well... I figured it's a start," Guile calmly states while beginning to gather his belongings and head into town.
"I am sorry, excuse me my friend. It is just, many people come for fame or glory..." the merchant speaks. "But, I suppose perhaps something simple might be just what you are looking for. I understand, come with me. I will show you the Chairmen of Labor."
Nodding in acceptance, Guile gathers his belongings, and follows this newfound stranger while into town hoping to finally live a settled life.
