You've been greeted by Lord Richard Northburgh at his particular Port.

Ah, but where are my manners? I am Lord Richard Northburgh; his Majesty's seal Bearer, I will lend you a hand until you settle down here.

- At his ship, he leads you to an island (Falconstone) with a small village there.

What a peaceful little settlement your new home is, but only when you familiarise yourself with every aspect of it will it blossom into a splendid Metropolis under your rule.
