Veteran XV
Claudius
The attendant leaves you with Apple and heads toward the stables. You put a foot in the stirrups and swing your leg astraddle the horse. Riding is a bit awkward for you, any movement while mounted feels like you're going to be thrown. As long as you keep the pace to a slow meander, you think you'll be fine.
Without ceremony, you turn Apple towards the road leading to Tilverton and get on your way.
Before long Tilverton is in sight. Spread out before you, as you come down the hill from Tower Arcana, is a town as typical as any town you have ever seen. The buildings are wood frame structures mostly, but a few with river rock foundations, pepper the cityscape. Most buildings only have a ground floor, but the occasional one has a second. Such is the case with the two closest as you approach. The Silver Mare stable on the right and the Lion's Pride, a tavern, on the left.
Up and down this main causeway are shops: fruit and vegetable merchants, general goods stores, gem dealers, money changers, armorers and other smithies, dealers of antiquities, guild halls, taverns and inns.
Sunrise, about 2 hours ago, it is still a bit early, but still there are a fair number of people out and about. A stable boy sits on a stool outside of the Silver Mare, picking his teeth with a splinter of wood. Across the way at the Lion's Pride a pair of unconscious drunkards lean against each other on a bench. A halfling sitting on another bench appears to be snoozing, as well.
What do you do? Where do you go from here?

Attendant said:We call this one Apple. Being as he goes nuts over apples.
