Falls Ende

South Hamtun proved to be captivating for Odo's crew as they entered the busy town. Heads rotated in all directions to take in the unusual sights. Odo, Jagger and Cathal had been here before, and like a seasoned traveller, Odo smugly explained the tall building with the spire was Saint Mary's Church, he pointed out the inn where he and Reeve Petrus spent the night, and showed them where all the huge ships were tied up. Within a short time they'd secured lodgings and stabled the horses. Cathal went off to seek old friends and disappeared into darkened alleyways, while the others were eager to explore and wander the town. Odo, Charlotte and Jagger headed towards the docks to find the Frisian Cog and Hilke.
