The Wanderer's Appearance!

"That took a lot of longer than I expected," Blue gasped for breath as he had finally reached Mendefera. "Let's see, where to begin where to begin?" the boy scratched his head in thought, wondering where to go first. Blue had just visited his home of Iycen, telling his family all about his adventures, and had stayed there for a month, to prepare for his next great journey. However, on the way to the great city of Mendefera, he was ambushed by a large group of bandits. Luckily, with the aid of his agility, Blue was able to escape from the rogues, but was forced to discard all of his equipment and ended up being worn out from the effort. So, he'd aimed to find a job or something of the sort to get him started in exploring once more. The teenager wandered the streets, until he heard footsteps heading towards him. He swerved around curiously, wondering what was going to happen next.

The sound that Blue had heard belonged to a guard that was walking towards him. There was a notice in his hands. As he stopped in front of the new arrival in the city, he began to read it. “Sir due to the lack of able bodied guard, we are hereby recruiting every able body being to take up arms against the masses of monster stirred up by recent events. This order was given by the Peacekeepers.” The guard then lowered the notice so he could look at Blue.

Reaching in to a pouch he pulled out an odd looking token, handing it towards Blue. “This token will get you some basic armor and weapons from the armory down the road, as well as some gold coin given for enlisting in to the recruitment army. If you have any questions please ask the barrack captain. He will have more details any questions you may have.” The guard would then continue looking for more people to recruit, leaving the token in Blue's hand.

Blue nodded at the guard's instructions, and thought to himself, I guess this is the start of a new adventure! After the man had departed from his company, the boy examined the coin closely. He'd never seen anything like it in his year of traveling, but knew it must be something special to this city if it allowed just anyone to get basic weapons and armor from the armory. After a bit of thinking, Blue decided upon what to do.

"Alright, so if I want to stay here, I'll have to fight against monsters for the city. Seems like a good excuse to learn about the beasts around here!" he nodded in approval to himself, civilians eyeing him strangely as he took off, dashing to the armory to re-equip himself.
