As the boats bob in the waters beneath the docks, a dwarf about four feet tall in height appears and shouts out at the new visitors ~ "Welcome to Arcania's Fall, laddies!" ~ His wrinkled face creases further and he raises a gnarled hand in mock salute to each of them~ "Traubon's my name, and I run the docks here." ~ The ring on his left ear winks in the sun.
Hands catching the ropes tossed in his direction expertly, he secures the boats from drifting away and watches as the newcomers begin to climb out of their boats onto the mainland ~ "I hope you're all here to stay… for some time, at least. Too many visitors come and go within a single day." ~ The grin fades, replaced by a look of resignation ~ "Ah, well... I've some spare copies of this town's map. Here, take them." ~ He hands one to each of them, glancing around to check for other arrivals…
As you look ahead, you see a figure about a hundred feet away. It seems to be pacing about frantically, at what appears to be a crossroads. The path leading to the figure is lined with rose bushes on the sides.
The figure is towered by a tall white circular structure from the back, a yellow building on the left and a blue building on the right.
As you contemplate your next move, Traubon's booming voice cuts in ~ "Well, enjoy yourselves here! We're a cosy community… and if you need any armoury supplies, you can find them at my cousin's… Ulfgar's." ~ He turns back to his own business, not wanting to delay you unnecessarily.
