327
You are slowly walking back along the cobbled street, trying to think of the best course of action, when a young boy approaches you. ‘I can get you into the harbour, mister,’ he says, ‘but it’ll cost you.’
He produces an envelope containing a sheaf of official-looking papers. ‘These’ll get you a red pass at the port watchtower. All yours for only 6 Gold Crowns.’15
If you wish to buy the documents, pay the boy 6 Gold Crowns. If you refuse them, he will soon lose interest in you and will disappear. When you have made your decision, you return to the port watchtower.
If you wish to enter, turn to 318.
If you would rather walk back along the tree-lined avenue to the city hall and enquire how you can reach the consulate of Sommerlund, turn to 84.
