	A sinister quiet enshrouds the great city of Ghol-
Š	Tabras as ιThe Azanι sails beneath the arch of its 
Š	harbour bridge and docks alongside its grand stone 
Š	quay. The only citizens to be seen abroad are the 
Š	guards of the Harbour Watch who quickly approach once 
Š	the ship is safely moored. A sly-faced sergeant 
Š	informs Captain Jenkshi that a night curfew is in 
Š	force, and that a mooring fee of 100 Nobels a day 
Š	must be paid by all ships arriving after sunset. This 
Š	is a huge charge and Jenkshi complains bitterly, but 
Š	the Sergeant merely laughs as his protests. "Pay the 
Š	fee or forfeit your ship, Captain," he sneers. 
Š	Jenkshi asks that he be allowed to pay tomorrow, so 
Š	that he may sell some of his cargo to offset the 
Š	exorbitant fee, but the sergeant shakes his head and 
Š	refuses his request out of hand. "The fee must be 
Š	paid now," he growls, "and in coinage - not cargo". 
	
	Reluctantly the Captain pays the Sergeant using every 
Š	last Nobel that he possesses, leaving him with no 
Š	money to pay his crew or purchase fresh supplies of 
Š	food and water in the morning. He tells the crew that 
Š	he must sell some of the cargo to raise the money he 
Š	needs. A sale must be arranged quickly for he cannot 
Š	afford to stay in this harbour for more than a day.
	Jenkshi picks a handful of his best crew members and 
Š	tells them to accompany him ashore to help him find 
Š	someone who will be willing to buy his copper ingots. 
Š	You offer to help him and he suggests that you take 
Š	half his men and meet back at the ship at dawn. He 
Š	tells you to accept no less than 8 Nobels per ingot. 
Š	He also tells you of two places he knows where a 
Š	buyer for copper may be found: the Flying Fish Tavern 
Š	and Coppersmiths Hall.
