OOC: I'm a little mixed up. Is your character here the same as the one at the Tavern, and if so where is he now?
OOC: My apologies. I thought they were in the same place. Same character. Could we null the moves at the Tavern? Sorry for the confusion.
OOC: That's fine. The Tavern is actually in the southern part of the Forest and the Mercenary Village is near the northern edge of the Dragon Kingdom. Absolutely.

OOC: Right.
IC: *Waits.*
Eventually, he sees an old man walking through the street.
The old man walks until he reaches the eastern edge of the town, and then stares out at the ocean in the distance.
*Dagon follows him, eventually stopping next to him, also admiring the ocean.*
Beautiful, isn’t it.
"Is. I shouldn't be here, you know. Maybe that's why I am- the ocean, I mean. Last time I was here lasted only a couple weeks. This place shouldn't mean anything to me. I should go north, follow the image in my mind of the place that might be. And yet, I am here. Do you know why that is, other than the view?" He chuckles softly at the second half of the question.

*Dagon smiles to himself.* You outlawed? Done something wrong?

The man shakes his head. "Not me, unless you count shouting at the people I trust. I'm stalling, I think. I left on a sour note, and I'm hoping things will improve. I need to leave, but I can't bring myself to, not until I know what will happen. I need to know who is going to win the war."

Hmm. You mean that Xain business? Or something more... personal.

"I would argue that, by its very nature, the former is the latter."

Fair enough. I’m just sitting here waiting for a job.
The man nods. "Alright. I have a job for you. When the war's over, find whoever you can- Lexos, Demiu, Darthraxx, all the rest, provided they're still alive, of course- and tell them Albeis says goodbye and he's sorry."
