    You were pushing through the streets of Suncheon, a hub for trading and services when suddenly the crowd pushed you back into a stand.

    Yells erupted and people flooded away from the middle of the street. In the new clearing a man you knew as a local merchant lay on the ground, bloody and bruised. Above him stood another man, his robes dark and his face covered by cloth. In his hand, a sword. The crowd collectively winched as the merchant was stabbed. The masked man then simply walked away.

    Violence wasn't an uncommon occurrance in the city, so slowly everyone went back to what they were doing. Suncheon was a great city, but in this rough world, it lacked legal action. This was normal.

    While walking through the woods on your way home, you passed a small river bed. You passed it every day, except this day your eyes caught a new sight.

    On a rock lay a sword, more weapons, a bag, and a piece of cloth... clothes and a... mask? Still standing on the trail a few feet away, you look to the river. There was a man, just leaving the water, his skin wet, and his body without a shirt. There were quite a few scars on the man, the most notable on his nose.

    He quickly noticed your presence, looking at you for a moment, then moving to his things, and getting dressed. He just ignored you. Should you do the same?
