Augendorf
The Bergland is dominated by towering mountain ranges and sparse valleys, interconnected by winding roads and secret passages. The landscape is complete with rivers, high waterfalls, natural cave systems, and mountainside forests. The province offers little in the way of arable farmland, and the populace relies on imported food in return for exporting precious metals, gemstones, and quality arms. Augendorf is the largest and most populous settlement in the Bergland. It also serves as the capital and is the seat of power for Count Elric of Bergland . It is an industrious city, taking advantage of the landscape's mines to produce jewelry and quality steel. Augendorf is also known for its architects, who design the wondrous stone bridges and chapels, among other things. The streets are paved, and high stone walls surround the city, bastioned with tall guard towers that stand sentry. The city is famous for its Berglander Knights. The territory does not lend itself to mounted warfare, and the warriors of the place prefer to fight on foot. The Berglander Knights wear advanced steel plate and wield powerful zweihanders, presenting themselves as formidable shock troopers. They have cleaved through the Empire's enemies time and time again. Count Elric's mighty citadel watches over the city and is where the Berglander court convenes. The Chapel of Saint Anna is a landmark achievement; the church offers healing baths that cleanse, sooth, and rejuvenates visitors. Finally, Marcurio's Cape, the local tavern, caters to visitors from all around. |

The events of Erlwitz were a messy start to Angelo and Minerva's partnership, but they nevertheless acquired enough coin to continue their travels. Angelo decided the duo should make for the Bergland, the province of Elector Elric. The Count was absent, however, leading an expedition in the south against greenskin raiders. Augendorf was thus governed by a small council of Elric's closest and most experienced advisers.
Riding to the gates of the city the duo would have to wait their turn while the guards checked the belongings of citizens, merchants, and load-bearing wagons. They were permitted to keep their weapons, but were explicitly told not to cause any trouble in Augendorf, and the two monster hunters proceeded into the city.
The paved streets were laid out neatly, passing through residential, commercial, residential, and industrial squares. Aside from wooden framework, most structures were made of fine stonework - a testament to the city's architects. But Angelo was more interested in getting to Marcurio's Cape, the local tavern.
The tavern was two-stories high. A lower level provided a bar, hearth, and booths to sit. The upper level contained empty rooms for rent. Below the tavern, however, was a cellar where various wines, ales, and other refreshments were stored. Marcurio was the innkeep, and he had been for thirty years now. His father was a successful merchant, but it was his fate to die early; Marcurio thus inherited his wealth at a young age and, rather than continue his father's trade, opened a tavern in the city. It quickly became a worthy attraction to locals and foreigners alike.
Angelo took a seat at the bar and ordered some ale. "Right then," Marcurio nodded, then looked towards Minerva to see if she wanted anything.

"I'll get an ale too." Minerva orders her drink. She was glad that they passed by the town she lived in so she could deposit the chair she got from Erlwitz. Minerva has an odd way of getting what she wants. Bergland is a province from a fairytale. She has never seen a place like this. Most of the provinces in Vessia are from storybooks but this takes the cake especially the citadel standing in the center of everything like a princesses tower.
"so what's the plan here?" Minerva asks her traveling companion.

From Taingaard to Isra, facing deadly witches and giant monsters, traveling through dark forests and murky swamps, frigid mountains, and salty seas, she had seen it all.
And yet, somehow, the prospect of a home she once knew terrified her the most.
Her knuckles were white as they gripped the hilt to her sword. She took in a breath, though it was shaky. This was just something she had to do. How could she move forward if something was holding her back?
Swallowing her fear, she urged forward, her steps so forced she seemed stiff and awkward.
Sybille Kasimir Rozenwit entered the bar. The warmth helped melt some of the stiffness but failed to smooth down the hairs on the back of her neck. She took in a slow breath, held it, and pushed her way through the crowd. No one was going to recognize her: she was too old now. Everyone was probably dead from back then. They were so far from her home town. Everything was fine.
She took herself to the bar counter, slapping down a few coins from her pouch. "Ale," she rasped without looking up.

Marcurio returned to the bar and placed an ale each in front of Angelo and Minerva. The monster hunter, in turn, slid two coins towards the barkeep and thanked him. It was around that time that Sibylle had found herself nearby, and Marcurio would inquire if there was anything she needed.
Angelo lifted his mug to drink from it, satisfying that itch he had in his throat. "Well, the Bergland's full of mountains," he began to explain to Minerva. Sibylle was close enough to overhear the conversation, provided she was listening. "Which means it's full of caves. Plenty of monsters and mysteries to be found in the depths. And ever since Count Elric's late father exterminated the mountain folk... well, no one's around to 'control the population', so to speak."
The Bergland was inhabited by Vessians, of course, but the province was also home to an indigenous and primitive mountain folk who often preyed on the unwary traveler. The mountain folk did not live in towns or cities, but hid themselves away in caves and underground caverns, where they often battled or lived alongside ferocious creatures lurking in the depths of the earth. But Count Elric's father, tired of the constant raids made by the natives, issued a decree that virtually exterminated the tribes. The creatures, without 'natural predators' so to speak, were able to ascend from their dark abodes and multiply.
It seemed that Angelo Costello wanted to take advantage of this. "Not afraid of caves, are you?" he half-joked to Minerva.

"I would love for someone to explore my cave" she thinks chuckling to herself before answering Angelo. "Everything fun happens in the dark, maybe they'll be something fun in that cave but do you think the two of us will be able to do a job like that? It seems a little large don't you think?"
Minerva takes a sip of her ale. She looks around the tavern her eyes stopping at Sibylle who was drinking the same ale as Minerva and Angelo, what a coincidence.

The scrappy adventurer lifted her head to eye a couple speaking to her right. She didn't try to hide her meddling, though a little voice in her head was screaming at her to be discreet. They spoke of adventure. Of slaying monsters!
What was the best way to get away from people? To go towards danger.
"Caves are warm this time of year. A little wet. Quiet. Still. Lively, though, if you know where to look. I've been through a good amount of them, fought a few creatures tucked away in its corners. I think I heard you say you needed a third?"
She sipped her ale sheepishly, giving them a wave.
"Sy- Kasimir," she told them. "My name is Kasimir. And you?"

"interesting name. I'm Minerva and this here is I suppose my adventuring partner Angelo. You know I'm actually glad you overheard, though it is bad etiquette to be eavesdropping. So Kasimir, have you been to the caves before?" Minerva swirls her drink before taking a sip. Boy does a good ale always hit right.

Angelo exhaled through his nose audibly - almost a laugh in response to Minerva's initial comment. Was it an invitation, he wondered? There was no doubt in his mind about clearing cobwebs from someone's cavern, especially Minerva's. He started to juggle a variety of responses but his partner was quick to change the subject to the more serious matters at hand.
Monster hunting was a high-risk, high-reward occupation. Naturally, more danger meant more pay. It wasn't uncommon for these slayers to band together for a higher chance of survival, but that meant dividing shares of the reward. An individual had to weigh their options: taking into consideration the danger and the reward. There was always the possibility to coerce an employer to bump the reward as well, which could help even out the divvying up of spoils. Angelo's policy, however, was that there was safety in numbers - after all, dead men can spend coin.
Already with Minerva at his side the rewards would be split 50/50. Another member of the party would cut the reward down to a third. But as mentioned, Angelo was more concerned about his survival. As it happened, another monster hunter was nearby, and she quickly caught Minerva's attention. By the sound of it she was experienced and could be a reliable partner. As the two women were speaking, Angelo chimed in.
"A pleasure, Kasimir," he greeted her. Minerva had already introduced him by name, and was piquing her interest in caves. Angelo emphasized her point: "yes, we're looking for another partner. Someone with experience in caves - specifically the Bergland caves. What's your past experience like?"

She gave him a crooked grin. "The Bergland caves?" Leaning back, she racked her memory. Her father had taken her on hundreds of dangerous journeys. Surely, the caves around the area were-
Her eyes popped open. Ah! That's right. Once, there'd been a blizzard, she'd twisted her ankle by stepping in the entrance to badger's den. Sybille had vowed to hunt and skin it when spring came. They took refuge... but they couldn't go far. Her father had been wary.
"I've been," she told them. "Not extensively, but I know my way around caves. I'll be a boon, especially since I can carry my weight." She patted the longsword at her side. "What say you, then? I'm not sure how many more takers you're going to get."

"perfect" Minerva says to the woman as she taps her nails on the table. "I often hear stories of people getting lost in caves, having someone who knows their way around will benefit us greatly. Hopefully, you can keep up with us. It would be a tragedy if that sword was just for show. If all goes to plan we will be splitting the reward evenly amongst the three of us that is if none of us slacks off. What else have you heard of the caves?" Minerva asks wanting to squeeze all the information she could before traversing into the dark tunnels.

Angelo was pleased to hear Kasimir's reply. He was relieved to know that this woman was not only skilled in monster hunting, but was also experienced with the Bergland caves. "I think this will work out well," he commented eagerly. Minerva went on to ask more about the caves, while Angelo looked towards Marcurio to gauge his response. The innkeep grinned and shrugged, knowing that the man was going to ask about potential jobs.
"Okay," Marcurio began, "there's three of you, which means you'll want something that pays good? There's a small community of goat herders west of the city, in the mountains. Pretty little lass, Agnes, lost her father to some fiend some months ago. She offers a substantial reward to anyone who can track down the beast." The innkeep looked around then leaned forward, propping his elbow on the counter and talking quietly so only the four of them could hear. "But I think she's hoodoo'n folks. Already sent four of your kind that way, ain't a soul came back. And Agnes pays up front - large amounts too - and while that sounds good, I have to wonder where the orphan of a goat herder came into so much coin..."
The innkeep leaned back and gave the group time to think. Was he pointing them in the direction of a monster or...? Angelo shrugged as he looked back as his companions: "I'm game, if you two are."

Minerva thinks for a second suspicious about the amount of gold this Agnes person possesses. Could her father have passed it down to her when he died? If so he was only a sheepherder. Minerva hasn't heard of anyone making big coins herding a flock.
"I'm always game, but this better not be some weird stuff like the last town we went to Angelo. I prefer my beasts to be in the not potentially human category. Though with what the innkeeper said we could easily be walking into a trap seeing as the other adventurers that went to track down the beast haven't returned. She could easily trap them and rob them" Ah yes the ol grab em and nab em. Minerva is familiar with this tactic of trapping adventurers and pocketing the gold in their pockets. She's done this trick a few times when she was down in her luck.

Kasimir raised a brow immediately. A goat herder with tons of coin? Well, if she paid upfront then she couldn't cheat them out of their money.
Not immediately.
Pondering on this, a small smile came to the woman's lips. A daring spark entered her eyes that had not been present since she'd stepped a foot into Vessian lands. They crinkled at the sides, narrowed a pinch, looked for trouble.
Lifting her head, she told them, "I'll take the chances if you do. A couple of countryside bandits shouldn't be a problem. I'm rather confident in my abilities. Once I finish this ale-" She held up a finger, then tilted the flagon up at her lips, higher, higher, higher with each gulp... then she smashed it down, grinning through the mead foam. "Well, I'm ready."

"well I'm readdyy" Minerva says in a sing song voice. "I wonder just how much is a lot." Minerva chuckles and waits for Angelos's response. She wonders if he feels pleased to be in the presence of such skilled yet beautiful woman, Minerva knew she would be if she were in his shoes.

"Then it's settled," Angelo responded, grinning. He finished his own ale with similar bravado as Kasimir. "We should pick up some rations and any other supplies we need from the market before heading out." The monster hunter diverted his attention to Marcurio: "Thank you for the information, friend. With any luck we'll find out what happened to the others." He turned around in his stool to stand up and made for the door exiting the building.
The Augendorf marketplace was quite busy at this time of day. Locals and foreigners alike were perusing the many goods being offered by Bergland artisans, villagers, and tradesmen. The cobbled street was lined on either side by bakeries, smithies, tailors, general stores, and other personal shops. The Bergland Counts had attempted to beautify the settlement by installing beautiful fountains in the center of the wide market street.
Angelo led the trio into the market. It was nice to have company, even more-so considering his companions' attractiveness. It would have been more satisfying, he thought, to follow the two ladies from behind... but Angelo knew better. All three of the monster hunters were here to make money. If there was any spark to the relationships then it could come after the hunt. Or maybe that was just Angelo's excuse to delay his anxiety about the subject.
Costello came upon a villager's stall who was selling dried meats. "These would make for good rations," he informed the duo before sliding coin over for payment.

Minerva's nose perked at all the interesting smells within the market. "mm dried meats, Yes it would be wise to pick up things that would not spoil fast" The only thing she liked hunting more was eating. People always wondered how she kept such a nice figure but that is a secret. "we should probably pick up foods that will give us long-lasting energy too." Maybe a few fruits would do the trick but depending on how long this beast takes to slay, those fruits could easily rot if not quickly eaten.
"hm, do we have enough water?"

Sybille gave a nod but pushed on past. "We'll need torches or anything else that can give off light." Briefly, she wondered about enchanted gems. Would they be too expensive here? Or maybe they weren't allowed to the common people at all? A simple one that gave off light would suffice, as they wouldn't turn off or run out of fuel in the middle of the fight. She cursed silently, but it was all over her face.
Goddamned Vessia and its rules!
"Perhaps a good length of rope if we decide to travel far within the caves. Charcoal or paint would also work. If we mark our way and keep a light, we can't get lost."

Minerva nods and scours around the market for the items. "so Kasimir, are you from nearby? You seem to know this area fairly well" Minerva asks once she returned to Kasimir's earshot. Minerva and Angelo are pleasant acquaintances or dare I even say friends with the amount of time they've spent on the road. Kasimir however, is a new face and Minerva would like to get to know her better. The better friends you are with people the less likely they are to stab you in your sleep.

Minerva had brought up a very good point. As a result of her counsel, Angelo perused some fresh fruits and picked out a small assembly of them. He made a point to snag some which were yet to ripen, so they would last a little longer on the journey. "An educated observation," he commented to Minerva.
Sibylle offered her own wise counsel. Fortunately for her, the Bergland was known for its mines and as such had plenty of light-emitting gemstones; they were in adequate supply and could be found on the market as an almost-common item. They would certainly be useful in the dark caverns the trio was to venture within. Rope and charcoal were abundant as well; paint, less-so, but still common.
