Legend
The next day you spend a majority of day bored and just hanging around, until a traveling merchant arrives. He looks a little worse for wear and speaks of barely escaping an attack. You step forward to see what exactly is going on.
"Goblinoids! They're all over the damn roads! Orcs, goblins, and all the rest of those greenskins are getting more aggressive! I was lucky to get here, but I'm not staying! I got a feeling they'll be attacking the closest settlement they can and I don't want to be here when they wander in this direction!" he says.
Grim news indeed. This could certainly bad, especially considering how woefully unprepared this place is. Nobody seems willing to leave though. To most, this is home and they won't be potentially run off.
While you ponder your next action you browse the merchant's wares. He surprisingly has a lot of stuff for someone who just barely escaped an attack.
