The Black Citadel
The path slopes down here and it seems you're headed down into a valley. Soon you see smoke rising above the treetops, and you round the next bend to find a village. The path opens up to form a road that you follow to the centre of the village.
Along the way people stop their work outside their homes or in the fields to stare as you walk past, most of the looks look cold and as sharp as daggers. The people look degraded and miserable and some of them have twisted features and sores of their faces and arms. You assume its some kind of disease.
The centre of the village is a large muddy square. Two boys run out from one of the nearby buildings and one of them throws a rock at you that bounces along the now drying out mud square and hits your boot. Seems like a lovely little hellhole you think to yourself with a smirk.
There is a large building to your right with a weather-worn wooden sign outside it that says 'The Iron Gollum'. To you left you see another road. What will you do?
