Taloon - a nearly forgotten city lying in a desert wasteland; its inhabitants nearly forsaken were it not for the Order.

"You wont find any abominations here." The captain explained, giving Garth a sharp look, though his words were brushed off with doubt.

As the convoy approached the city, Garth could now conprehend the height of the walls which stood majestically against the fury of wind and the sands that threatened to swallow its entire populaton. Their onvoy made way towards a big gate, which began opening at the sight of their arrival. All of that was made of sand stone and heavy iron.

It took a while to open even half of its door way, and would take just as much to time to close. Probably sand or rust is slowing down the gate. Garth took the time of waiting to analyse this fortress's outter defenses.

Canons were placed on top of the walls, ballistas coming into view as well. This was a sign that the city was both well defended and had a rather large number of population. Its probably the only settlement in this wasteland, thus it would be well guarded.

"Once were in we'll see what job we can give you, Henrick." Henrick? Garth had neglected in granting them his real name.
