Strange Passenger
"You there, where's my money?!"
One of the men bared his teeth out in rage after staring at the silent passenger in his wagon, who was still seated calmly, as though they owned the place.
Dammit! After the dangerous risks he took to get passengers here, this is the thanks he and his boys got?
Typically, the official/Royal wagon transport in the region was always booked to the brim.
So those who were desperate to catch up to some appointment in the following towns or cities, would no doubt turn to the few of them, who were peasant wagon drivers instead.
Make no mistake. William's services were preferred because of the guard protection attached to them.
But in desperate times, people would choose to risk it, especially after finding that their number one choice of transportation was booked solid.
