Rumach entering Karador

[Rumach]

As Rumach enters the Entrance Hall, he growls. "Always those silly happy Elves everywhere." Rumach tries to ignore them, and walks further. Some people look at him, but no more then a fast look, before they continue walking. A few children point at him and wishper to eachother. Rumach mumbles: "Has they never seen a troll before?"...

After a small talk with the guard, Rumach recieves entrance to Karador Keep. When he walks through the gate, he feels relieved. He knows about the dark times in Karador, but he also knows that are many opportunities for him out here. He looks around, wondering where to go first in the big world beyond the gates...

It took a half days journey from the swamps just north of the city before the elven woman made her way back to the Keep. She was mostly covered in mud from head to toe and the rare spots that had no mud were filthy enough to say that they once were.

Looking to the guard at the gate she simply glared slightly through the dried mud. "Don't say a word. It's not funny." The guard squirmed a little as he tried hard not to laugh and finally he had to look away before an outburst came forth and she walked by him quickly.

As she passed into the main hall she tripped over something she had not seen. Nor could she have even if she was paying more attention as a small child had set up some string at about ankle height in order to play a prank.

Before she had the chance the either fall flat on her face or catch her balance, she ran into a troll. Gathering herself quickly she looked at him and said, "I'm so sorry. I don't know what happened there."

The child broke in half laughing as he ran away while a guard went after him.

[Rumach]

Rumach looks down at the Elfin that ran into him. "You're so sorry?" he grunts. "I knew your race was annoying, but I'm only a few seconds in this cursed land and an Elf already bumped onto me."

Rumach looks at the mud on his clothes. With an angry face he tries to wipe it off, not realizing that it was already there before the Elfin ran into him. "You are gonna pay for this mud. You made me dirty!"

[Kailyn]

Taken aback by the troll's comment about her species, Kailyn took a step backwards, leaving a little more space between them. Though she wanted to defend her race, she knew it would probably only make this situation worse and therefore did not reply to his comment about her.

"I am sorry sir." She said once more as she looked at the dry mud that laced his clothing and that at herself. Though she had refrained from defending herself earlier, she was not about to take blame for something she certainly did not do. "But the mud that is on me is there to stay until I have myself a shower. And the mud that is upon you looks like it's been there about as long as mine has been on me. So I do not believe that what you say is posible."

The elven woman looked upon the troll with care as she spoke her words and after a short pause of reflection she offered, "If you wish though, there is a place for new arrivals to clean up just down that path. I'm sure you will find it suitable for your needs." As she talked, she pointed to a path just off the main entrance.

There had not always been a need for that room. But in the last fifty years or so of Karador's existence, some new commers had some very 'strong' needs to get cleaned up fast so as not to disturb any of the citizens.

[Rumach]

"Hmm". The Elfin was right, and both knew. Rumach looked at the direction the Elfin pointed at, and thought it wouldn't mind to clean himself before entering the world of Karador. "Don't bother me again." he said, then walked away.

The washing room was very good. When he got back to the main hall, he didn't saw the elfin anymore. He finally walked through the gates of Karador. On the main road, he looked around. The Elfin wasn't anywhere, but he knew those annoying elves could appear and dissapear without being noticed. He hoped it was the last meeting with an Elf...

[Kailyn]

Kailyn was glad that the troll did not decide to fight her on what she had just said and she calmly watched him as he walked away from her.

The elven woman did not wait till the new arrival had reached his destination before she took off in the direction she had been headed in when she had arrived here today.

Glancing to her left, she caught a look at a young lad that had just been aprehended by the guard and she shook her head in dismay. Without any more delay, she was off to her quaters to have that shower she had been waiting for.
