218 AD.
Blackwater City.
The Corix Tavern is less than 100 square meters but it is overcrowded every day, with people pushing and shoving and making a lot of noise. The dark space was filled with various smells, and the floor was stained with colorful dyes.
The owner of the tavern, Bert, has been operating here for decades. He has never thought about making the place clean and tidy one day, and he has never taken it seriously to clean it. He likes this kind of atmosphere. He likes to get together with the mercenary adventurers, each other holding wooden wine barrels above their heads, drinking water like cattle, without panting, and downing half a barrel of malt liquor one after another.
Some adventurers are not as leisurely as those people. They always keep an eye on the cards on the wall.
Various task details are written on the flop in red ink. Such as hunting a certain animal, or escorting a person, etc. The prices indicated range from one hundred to five hundred rupees.
Adventurers use these cards to find tasks that suit them.
