Description:

A couple of days ago I paid a visit to a friend of mine who runs a little fishing shack in the port. He told me about some sort of cargo ship which was sailing that day towards the east, to a place he wasn't quite sure of.
"It contains lots of supplies, something big is going on there. I've heard that they discovered some sort of ruins in that place, where treasures abound and also some sort of sacred relic, unknown to me. I've heard lots of things about it also, but if they are true or not I don't know. I'd bet, however, that something like that would be worth a really big amount of gold" he said.
It was an opportunity I couldn't resist and before I even thought about it, I had leapt inside the boat and was waiting for it to set sail.
Two days later I arrived at what looks like a little fishing town surrounded by cliffs. It's too late to regret about this now, so I'd better start moving. Whatever it is that lies in that place has to be mine.

In the city section, most people are neutral to you, but as soon as you swing you sword or draw your bow, you will turn into their enemy. This was intended to be this way to a certain point. Thugs and pirates will also be considered enemies if you alert the people.
