Oh well, at least I avenged Argonnek's death. And it seems it was a bad ending for that family after all.
And then Opra and his friend decided to march onto the west, into some town, in search of any actual troubles. On their way they were attacked by a group of bandits, who might have been or not sent after them by that boss. The bowman companion was promptly killed by a spearman before Opra could get to him, and then the spearman stabbed Opra right into his right hand, so he lost his sword in the fight. Seeing that he is going to be overwhelmed by bandits, Opra decided that running away is the wisest decision.
Alone and wounded, he marched west and west, and in the end arrived to some abandoned human village before the darkness of night could consume him. There he found two kobolds taking refuge in one of intact houses. One of them ran away in terror, and that Opra took as a sign of aggression, so he went and murdered it in a fit of rage over his lost weapon and companion. Oh well.
Then he went for the town of Creviceglad, which wasn't that far away. It was in abysmal condition as well, with animal men taking residence in various gloomy taverns, where drunkards had their fights over petty things. Opra saw how one cave fish woman was brutally murdered for an unknown reason. There he recruited two companions, a lasher named Ramstom and an axeman Muthe who over the time became his close friends. Opra and his gang tried to find some beasts to slay, but the thick layer of lairs around the city had nothing in them. Not a single werebeast. That's why they decided to carry on their adventure and went to the south through human settlements.
Finally having the chance, Opra visited the famous Museum, which proved to be disappointing yet. When Opra asked the old bookkeeper why there are only goblin heads and a flask present, he looked worryingly and said that he sent many great adventurers to fetch more items, but most of them haven't returned yet. Opra felt that their fates might not be that glad, but didn't say anything. Anyway, he decided that bringing a very rare artifact would bring him the glory and fame he wanted, so he asked out about various dwarven settlements, as they most certainly had great rewards deep inside. The bookkeeper told him about Murderedflags and Evenedanvils, but seeing that Evenedanvils were too close to the Museum and most likely looted already, Opra set his way onto the distant fort of Murderedflags.
