			Vasker Raiden was pleasantly bemused by the work of ports. As Veshna's Rose docked
			in Zareph, ropes were thrown, orders barked, and men labored in an orderly chaos with
			which he'd grown comfortable. Beyond the docks the hills piled up towards the horizon,
			covered in stone structures, many of which emitted a steady stream of the smoke of
			industry.

			--


			First, he had to deliver the document to Serenton. Via Zareph -- a rough-and-tumble
			sprawl of smokey forges and clanging blacksmiths, a soot-encrusted city of stone and
			steel, raucous hedonism, and narrow alleys where one was as likely to encounter a
			dwarven weaponmaster or an orc assassin.

			The ropework complete, Veshna's Rose rested securely at one of Zareph's many docks an
			hour before the setting of the sun. The captain, overproud of the successful docking,
			approached Vasker with a smile, a crewman in tow, lugging a chest of his clothes,
			weapons, and papers.

			--

			Even at sunset, the dock district was bustling with commercial activities. Though the
			street merchants were re-packing their ramshackle wagons and retreating for the
			evening, the proper work of the docks continued. Cargo, inbound and out, was stacked
			and piled and laid out for transport. Crates of refined ore, weapons and armor of steel,
			cast iron parts destined for the mills and waterworks of the great cities of the north
			competed for space on the dock with supplies of leather and timber and apples and
			potatoes and a legion of barrels of beer from the fertile valley of the Serenflow.

			His guide wasted no time navigating the maze of goods to the rough cobbled street, and
			soon led Vasker up a narrow alley lined with two and three story stone buildings that
			seemed to be primarily populated by aggressive prostitutes. It seemed obvious that his
			guide would have been distracted and delayed by their advances, had he not been
			carrying the large chest containing Vasker's effects in his arms.

			--


			Without speaking, the pair walked with purpose through the winding candlelit alley,
			ignoring the sometimes outrageous propositions coming from both sides, hiked up a
			side staircase, and emerged a minute later in a broad square atop one of Zareph's several
			hills. The tree-lined square was bordered by now-closed shops and a handful of lively
			pubs and eateries. A squad of city guards walked diligently by on patrol, their boots
			clacking on the sooty brick. A small crowd was gathered to watch a glassblower, and the
			clanging hammer of a blacksmith working late echoed faintly through the night.
