Transcript

The elf woman raises one hand, lifting a brigand high into the air in a spiral of red-and-blue magic. He crashes face-first onto the wet street, crying: “AAAGH!” Afterward the young guide, the elf woman, and the hooded reptilian fighter stand among the fallen brigands. Guide: “Any trouble?” The elf woman answers: “Not today.”

About this chapter

Street Smarts opens with four brigands robbing a caravan outside the Imperial City. They head into the crowded festival streets with their loot, where an encounter with a streetwise local draws them into a city that isn’t quite as easy to navigate as they expect.
