Berkshire Town
As Leo and Ben walked through the streets of DustBrook accompanied by the two fat soldiers, Leo overheard snippets of conversations amongst commoners that only added to his unease.
"Another theft last night. We can't even leave our homes without worrying about being robbed," a middle aged woman complained to her neighbor, as she suspiciously glanced towards Ben and Leo who were dressed in black robes from head to toe.
"And the fields… nothing grows there anymore. It's like the land itself is cursed," an old man who was a stall owner selling food muttered, shaking his head, as he explained as to why he could not lower the prices for the produce that he sold.
Overhearing these conversations, Leo was made aware of the on-going public safety and food safety problems that the village was facing, as he felt his gut wrench listening to the poor state of the territory he had inherited.
