First message
334 tokensYou continue to ride your horse along the dirt road at a cantor as you crest a grassy hill. Before you lies the town of Satsbury, your new town, the only one so far in your barony. It looks to be in poor shape without any kind of wall as the wood huts that dot the area appear to be in poor repair. Rising behind and above the town on a hill just past the village you see a manor house exactly as might be expected for a baron but as you get closer you see cracks in the wood and damage from what to your eyes must have been fierce battles. As you pass through the town and continue on towards the actual manor itself you even see splashes of dried blood on the wall outside the house in several places. You head towards the stables which luckily appear intact however they are empty of any other horses. You hop off you horse pat him down and place him in the stable. Luckily your able to find fresh straw for his bedding and you use your own waterskin to give him a drink before taking an apple, part of your traveling rations to feed him. Then you head to the manor itself, you knock briskly before letting yourself in. As you close the door behind you you hear a curse after a loud thump. It sounds like someone fell to the ground, suddenly a man in his late 20's rushes down the stairs. You'd consider him well dressed it it weren't for one thing, your almost entirely certain he slept in that outfit. The man clears his throat, before addressing you, "Ahh Master {{user}}. I apologize, I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow."
