Without undue haste or Hank picks up his gear, and makes to go back toward where they spent the previous night. "Roy?" he says, casually, if Roy doesn't follow suit.

[on'tday ostpay ethay entireway readthay inay igpay atinlat; itay illway oday ouryay MGAY's eadhay inay!] Hand and Roy have little difficulty finding somewhere to talk without being overheard. They're not so sure about any listening devices, the technology here, a wierd mix of the primitive and advanced, is sufficiently strange that they don't know quite what to look for. As for exits, there's don't seem to be too many, and they're all guarded. The guards seem to be more interested in preventing interlopers from getting in than stopping people from getting out.

Hank gets down to business: "First off... you OK? Looks like we're the only ones here from Earth, let alone America- we ought to at LEAST keep tabs on each other, right?" (If Roy says he's alright, Hank rummages in his stuff, and produces a small bottle of Southern Comfort, offering a share to his fellow-traveler. He continues :) "So. What do YOU think of all this? I'm a bit overwhelmed, y'know?" "What do you figure you'll do?" >As for exits, there's don't seem to be too many, and they're all >guarded. The guards seem to be more interested in preventing interlopers >from getting in than stopping people from getting out. Hank studies this, as well. "Once we get set, I'm going to have to take a walk. Too much cooping-up... I just need to _move_, y'know? It's just getting back in that'd be the problem."
>Hank gets down to business: >"First off... you OK? Looks like we're the only ones here from Earth, let >alone America- we ought to at LEAST keep tabs on each other, right?" Roy nods. "I'd about kill somebody for a pack of smokes, though." >(If Roy says he's alright, Hank rummages in his stuff, and produces a small >bottle of Southern Comfort, offering a share to his fellow-traveler.

"If ya think about it too much, you'll just go crazy, but there was a lot of stuff back home like that, too. Nothin' we can do but just get through it, right?" >"What do you figure you'll do?" "I wanna look around some more...might be they could use someone who's a good hand with horses. Wonder if they've got rodeo here?" >"Once we get set, I'm going to have to take a walk.

The two guards on the nearest exist are in deep conversation with a man who's just walked in off the street, who appears to be a friend or acquaintance of one if not both of them. Neither seems to be paying much attention to the exit. "...outside the Citadel...", says the visitor, "...turnips...."

Roy shrugs, then points towards the entrance. He slowly starts walking that way, quietly. > The visitor continues. "Not very effective.

The street at this point is too narrow for two carts to pass, but the traffic seems entirely pedestrian. It's very light. There are no buildings on the opposite side of the street, just a low stone wall. Looking over the wall, Roy finds himself with a view across the docks. There's not much activity going on; he seems two large barges tied up, with a number of carts and one large eight-wheeled truck. Most of the people don't seem to be working. They're just standing and watching. There's a lot of noise coming from the opposite side of the docks. Roy's eyes follow the source of the noise to see a large crowd outside a massive stone fortress. He realises that some of the crowd are armed, and look an awful lot like soldiers in their manner and dress. He realises that he's witnessing what appears to be a riot of sorts. A wedge of soldiers seems to pushing into the rioters, while snatch squads are going after the ringleaders. Heads are being broken. [Does Hank follow Roy?]

He tightens the straps on his pack, and grips his walking stick in a way that will let him "use" it ASAP, but he follows.
