The streets of Bir Š Rabalou are quiet this morning and you reach the Š city's south gate without incident. Here you gallop Š through the open gates to avoid any risk of being Š detained by the surly guards. They shout and curse Š you and loose off a few arrows in your wake, but Š these are poorly aimed and you escape from the city Š unharmed. It is approaching noon when you arrive at a junction Š where the coast road splits in two. Ahead of you are Š the gentle foothills of the Koneshi Mountains, and Š beyond them you glimpse the snowy peaks of the great Š range rising majestically into the cloudless sky. Š Away to the east you can see the rugged coastline of Š southern Vassagonia where the cresting ocean waves Š break their backs upon wild and rocky beaches. A signpost at the junction points to the east and to Š the south. To the east it reads: KHOR - 100 MILES / Š BISUTAN - 225 MILES. To the south it reads: KONESHI Š PASS TO BISUTAN - 125 MILES. Consult the map at the front of this book before you Š decide which road you wish to travel in order to Š reach the city of Bisutan. If you choose the coastal road (east), turn to â167â If you choose the mountain road (south), turn to â152â
