Monteci - Avivah 26
Westin was in a good mood as he approached Monteci. He enjoyed exploring and coming to a new town was an adventure to him. New people to meet, spices to taste and perhaps purchase, recipes to exchange and, of course, a chance to meet another mage and, if he was lucky, learn new spells. As he mulled these prospects over in his mind, he passed, without much of a glance, a church devoted to some human deity. Churches of other races were pretty irrelevant to him. The cemetary, however, held his attention a little longer.
The poor humans with their terribly short life span. If he was human, he probably would already be dead by now! Even so, he hadn't really lived long enough to fully appreciate the brevity of human lives. The cemetary, though, together with the odd way humans bury and mark their dead, served as a reminder and a lesson. If he didn't make it back in 40 or 50 years, the town, the people, the layout would be completely different, if it was here at all.
He continued on noting the various shops and houses on the way until he reached the center of town and arrived at the inn. He paused for a moment or two and stared curiously at the sign of the dropping custard pot. The inn was advertising their cooking. It was is even better than he had hoped! He resumed and eagerly entered the inn, intent on asking the innkeeper for a room, but more importantly, for some of that custard touted on their sign.
