Shipwreck certainly was unlike anywhere Eva had been. It was a menagerie of people, all the colors and architecture; it was certainly a sight worth seeing. The way the people connected their structure to the nature around them, such as the impressive protection of the town. As she wandered around the island, trying to see as much as she could, it was not surprising that she bumped into one or two people, having to apologize profusely.

She slipped into the nearest building to get out the busy street and found herself in what seemed to be the local bar. Not wanting to draw too much attention being a traveler, she lowered her head and sat down at a small table, away from prying eyes as she pulled out her cards and set them down. I need to know what to do next. Who is an ally? Who is a danger? Oh, where do I even begin?! She let out a stressed sigh and pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to focus on where and how to start all over again.

The caravan had stopped to water the horses. They had been on the road for three days since the previous town where they had sold their wares, performed their talents and sadly even pickpocketed. Eva never did approve of her cousin’s criminal ways, but they tended to show more profit than many in the caravan and it kept them from being punished or told to cease by the leaders. 

Just seeing them boast and brag about how they easily tricked a certain ‘target’ or who snagged the most made her feel disgusted to the point she unhitched her horse Vladimir from her wagon and decided to water him a bit further down the river to a more secluded area. A quick trot on the horse would get her back to them fast enough when they needed to go, so she saw no harm in it.
