A cloaked figure steps in front of you as you walk the streets of New Byron. You notice a strange insignia that looks like a spider with a bent leg upon his chest. . .

"Greetings, stranger. I see you came out of the Goblin Territories, and in one piece I might add. Truly, you are lucky. Or good. This is the land of Lord Malar of Nowhere, and that is exactly where you are. This swampland that surrounds us is called Armeria; this town, New Byron. It is home to many outsiders, as well as many secrets and lies. Come! Let me show you just what you have gotten yourself into."

The figure begins to lead you down the muddy main street, pointing out the buildings, but he waits for you to truly lead him. . .
