   The houses lining the streets begin to look larger here and finely
kept, yet still far from royalty.  The roar of so many voices mixed
together from the market dies down here.  A ways to the west the street
intersects with Talerenn Way and to the east the road continues.
North of here is a small alley.
Obvious exits: -North -East  -West

Elemak, captain of the guards, makes his way down the street.

Chipane Street
   The houses lining the streets begin to look larger here and finely
kept, yet still far from royalty.  The roar of so many voices mixed
together from the market dies down here.  A ways to the west the street
intersects with Talerenn Way and to the east the road continues.

Chipane Street
   This street begins to look like a more residential area.  Small
middle-class houses line the street here although every few have been
turned into family-run small businesses.  Those who live here still
have to put up with the noises of the market being nearby and people
cutting through here to reach it.  An intersection is seen to the west
and the street continues eastward.
Obvious exits: -North# -East  -South -West 
Puddles of fresh blood cover the ground.

Talerenn and Chipane Intersection
   Talerenn Way and Chipane Street intersect here.  The bustle at this
intersection is at an all time high compared to the rest of the city,
filled with people making their way from the palace, market, or from the
ajoining streets.  Chipane lies both east and west from here, a more
residential area, while Talerenn joins the palace gates with the entrance
to the city.

Talerenn Way
   Talerenn Way continues north and south from here, busy with the
bustle of townsmen, sailors, merchants, and other visitors making
their way about.  While small shops can still be seen along this
street, it's mainly taken up by houses.  The inn can be seen just
towards the south of here, while the market extends even further to
the south.  An intersection is visible just towards the north, the
tall towers of the palace visible in that direction.
Obvious exits: -North -South

Talerenn Way
   Talerenn Way branches off from the market here, leading north.
Quaint little houses line the busy street, full of those making
their way towards the market or on some chore.  A few can still be
found here and there.  The noise of the market is audible to the
south, while the inn lies just to the east.  The great towers of the
palace are visible to the north.
Obvious exits: -North -East  -South

The Market
   Many booths and stands surround you, filled with fruits, vegetables,
breads, pastries, and other fine foods.  Vendors walk about shouting out
or showing off their wares.  Sailors and merchants push their way through
busily, while town folk and travellers sort through the market, looking
for something to buy.  Although there is much bustle in the market and the
city in general, a strange sense of uneasiness can be felt.  On closer
inspection, things simply look amiss, especially for one who traveled
through Torrhan only a year ago.  Many of the stands are now empty and
falling apart, the buildings have begun to look unkept and dirty or simply
abandoned.  This same market was once used to catering to triple the number
of merchants, sailors, and visitors.  The great towers of the palace are
visible to the north and the market square lies south.

The Market Square
   Many booths and stands surround you, filled with fruits, vegetables,
breads, pastries, and other fine foods.  Vendors walk about shouting out
or showing off their wares.  An assortment of people can be found here -
dwarves, elves, humans, halflings, gnomes.  Sailors and merchants push
their way through busily, attempting to reach their destination. Despite
the bustle of the city, though, a sense of uneasiness settles upon you.
On closer inspection, many of the stands appear to be empty and falling
apart, many of the buildings have begun to look unkept, dirty, or simply
abandoned.  This same market only a year ago would have seen triple the
number of people that fill it now.  The air is mixed with the salty scent
of the sea.  The great towers of the palace are visible to the north,
the docks and other shops line the street west, and a great school can
be seen towards the forest that lies east.

The Massive Gates Before The City of Torrhan
   The noise and bustle of the city can already be heard from here, even
when the massive, iron gates are closed.  Tall buildings and towers are
visible over the stone walls and the smell of freshly baked bread and
fresh fruits wafts through here.  Far ahead the great palace of the King
are visible, its tall towers extending towards the sky.  Despite the
greatness of this city, an unsual, uneasy feeling can be felt here, as if
something has been lost here.  The massive gates lead into the main market
of Torrhan, while a smooth stone path leads away from the city.

A Smooth Pathway
   The noise and bustle of the city can already be heard from here, the
great, massive gates lie just north, entering onto the great market. Tall
buildings and towers have been erected, visible even when the city gates
are closed - a rare occasion, as all are welcome in this merchant city.
Far ahead, the great towers of the palace can be seen, its tall towers
extending towards the sky.  The gates are north, while the path away from
the city continue south.
