Livewire's Arrival

As I sit above the square and stare at the night sky and its concertio of stars and constellations, I recall my first days of life in cosrin...

Born into a family which hadent had two gold pieces to rub together I was forced to work on my families measily excuse for a farm, with nothing to look forward to exept the kind words of my father..."Well make it someday son...you'll see."

The years passed and the farm grew into disrepair not prosper so I decided to leave my family and on my eighteenth birthday I had saved up enough gold to leave the continent and travel south in the footsteps of my brother....

Twitch had always been to more adventerous of us and had left long before be graet drought which killed many families in my homelands.

He said to me "I'm going to seek my fortune in a place called cosrin"..

I looked puzzled as I knew of no such place..

"Find me in Moorgate and give my love to mum and dad." With that he patted me on the back and headed for the ocean.

This was two years ago..

I finally grew tired and took my savings to the port just east of my village where a friendly fisherman smiled and took me south as it was near his fishing grounds.

We sailed along the cosrin coast and he said to me "You'll have to take the lifeboat my lad for I cant sail any closer."

I got into the boat and offerd what little money I had to him for the journey. He just chuckled and took half from my plam.

As I landed on the beach I saw what seemed to be a hord of short green men with big mouths and very sharp cutlasses.

I tried to edge past them without being seen, but I stepped on and cracked a twig..and with that they chased me towards the north gate where a company of guards made light work of the mob.

"Your lucky, if they caught you you'd have been a main course!" I smiled sarcasticaly at his dry humour.

"Here you may need these," He tossed over a broad sword and a book describing the town and the continent of cosrin, I waved thankfully and headed off into the town.

I followed the path east and took a turn south where I found a buisy market place full of people talking and performing spells to heal the wounded, I wanderd around the square wondering what to do next, when I overheard two sinister looking men talking about a guild for thiefs and rouge.

I coughed nervously to sign my pressence...

"Hello there, you dont look like your from round here are you local?" he asked.

"No im from across the sea, I'm looking for my brother" I replied.

"hmm..what's his name?" the other man asked.

"Twitch," I said as I began to pull out a picture of him.

"So you're Livewire eh? glad to meet ya! You're brother is a member of the rouges guild," he smiled as he flashed his guild ring.

"If you want to see him i suggest you sign up," and with that they walked off chuckling.

After much questioning I arrived at the guild house where I was stopped by a man at the door..

"You need to give me a silver acorn to prove you are of use to the guild," he showed me a picture of the acorn and pointed me in the direction of the adventurers guild...

It seems I will have to get one of these acorns if I'm ever going to see my brother...I sighed and headed back to the market..
