Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”
((How do you respond?))

"Oh, I just, uh…" you stutter, tensing up. You eye the crone, then back outside the tent. For a moment, the air thickens with anticipation, until… "I'm a mercenary" I blurt out, the old hag makes me nervous, the appearance of her unsettles me and I cant shake the feeling she's ill intent "I'm wandering around towns and cities for work, I barely have enough as it is ma'am, but I'm no special someone, just a random man needing work constantly." I say with a tremble.
