Sounds of hammering echoed on the road.

<clang>

Blacksmith workshop was in full workload this day.

<clang>

Just like any other person in town.

Work was to be done.

<hiss>

Red metal entered the bath and smoked the room.

-So – said the forger – what can I do for ya – over to the customer.

Man in light armor took out his sword.

-Nothing much, just some repairs and sharpening –

Smith took a quick look.

Put away his previous work aside for a second.

Unsheathed the sword.

-Huh. Used sword, couple nudges….. Nothing to worry about – said almost instantly.

-How much? – man reached for his pouch.

-depends. Now would be …. 6 bronze. Later 5.

Man reached in his pocket – you got change for that? – showed one silver.

-sure sure. Here you go. Ill be done soon. Come back whenever you want to get it –

Bladesmith returned 4 bronze and went back into the shop.

Soon enough anvil and hammer started to work again.

Young man walked away and soon ran into a crowded market place.

Doors opened with a slight crack.

Some people inside turned their heads to see who came in.

And went back to their buiseness at their tables.

-Hello there. What can I help you with? –

Woman at the desk, secretary assuiming , smiling welcomed the guest.

Young man with a white blue shirt and a sword on his back came closer to talk.

- yes hi. Is this the, ummm , guild in havenmoon? I tried asking around but they didn't seem to give one answer – he stuttered unsure of his whereabouts.

-Ah first time here? – She asked while cleaning some glasses.

-Ah yes. How can I join you? Do you have like requirements or entrance quest?

"Testing job" doesn't really sound that good ~ man though to himself.

~and the majority part sound worse ~

-okey then. I guess I`ll .. guess`ll like to join then. – awkward speaking.

Many eyes started looking at him at this moment.

Many whispers interested in maybe the newest member were load enough for him to hear.

-Okey. let me get the paperwork ready .-

Secretary under the desk looking for the correct form answered quietly

They quickly filled the form.

Man reached to his pocked at put out the coins to pay.
