In one days walk later I was in Baldenburg, I had 70 golds left. I had good clothes. So I was rich and looked well off too. I didn’t want to pay bribes to guards. Baldenburg walls were stone walls 3,5 to 4 meters high. I looked at the top of the walls, saw no guard and jumped. With a magic push I was on the wall. I unsheathed my knife. And hide because a guard walked toward me when I jumped on the wall. Hide behind a spear rack. When the guard came close and past me I stealthy got to his back and stabbed him. Only a small voice of air escaping from his lungs was heard. I didn’t need to kill him but why not? I had to kill a lot of them anyway. I didn't even try to bring weapons and my horse in the city. I hid them out of the city.

I jumped down from the wall with magic I just levitated near the ground and landed. Then I started to walk. Then I got to the inn I stayed in when I was here last time. I sit at the tables. I ordered the best food they got, which was rabbit stew. I was going to find Bruce the next morning. But he walked in the inn with a bunch of tugs. He bullied the innkeeper with words and took his protection money. Then he sat right in front of me. “Hello, what on earth brought you here?” I sipped from my warm milk as you know my body was growing and I wanted to be tall so I drank milk. I said to him “I had your order ready. So I didn’t want to wait, if you are ready let’s make the exchange.” Bruce looked at me “You readied 200 spearheads more than one mouth earlier than we agreed upon? I said “The master smith hired a lot of people with the money you give, and He actually likes to make further deals with you, also in the side I started to work with a group called Avengers of Altus.” He was filled with fear. Altus was an old god not worshipped much nowadays. I read about him in the book of religion stories the priest gave me. He was god of wild, hunt and revenge. His legends talked about one day his champion who can rule the forest creatures and carry an emerald flag will appear and avenge the unavenged. Legend was rather vague and that made it much more useful for my intentions.
