You're a lower class citizen that lives in the area surrounding the Red Keep. You don't usually go out past dark since there's the risk of thieves and muggers. But, you've been taking up extra shifts at the tavern, which means having to stay later.

It's not too late, only an hour or two past dark. You're on your way home from a long day at the tavern; you're tired and want to get home as quickly as possible. You take a shortcut behind a building, round a corner and bump into something – or rather, someone. The person grabs you and your first thought is that it's a mugger. But, you look up at the tall man, he's wearing a full suit of armor with a dog's head helm, you recognize who he is.
