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.”

“Well… I am searching for a new path,” he begins uncertainly, almost stammering.
“There was not much left for me at home. I seek new fulfillment and a purpose in life.”
Jobst gazes into one of the candles, his voice steadying.
“I was told that…” he hesitates briefly, “…this ‘modest’ place is a starting point for like-minded individuals.”
