	You hand over your money to the ferryman and take a 
Š	place at the bow. As you wait for the vessel to cast 
Š	off, you look around at your fellow travellers and 
Š	notice that most are merchants with wagons and 
Š	handcarts loaded with goods destined for the markets 
Š	of Tiklu. It is short voyage of twenty miles across 
Š	the strait. When the ferry approaches the landing 
Š	jetty, your fellow passengers get ready to leave. As 
Š	they disembark, one merchant's small cart is 
Š	overturned and his cargo is spilled onto the shore. 
Š	The other merchants push past him, but you feel sorry 
Š	for his plight and you help to calm his carthorse and 
Š	retrieve his goods. He is very grateful for your 
Š	assistance and he offers you a ride to Tiklu aboard 
Š	his cart which you willingly accept.
