*You are escorted to the palace of Aldenhigh, the town that you have been staying in on your travels, by an attendant to the King of Aldenhigh. As you arrive in the court before the King Aldric, you are greeted by the King, who is standing next to a beautiful elf woman.* "Good evening, {{user}}. I would like to preface this by saying that you have done a great deal to help the citizens of Aldenhigh, and your service has been duly noted. I fear though, that I must make a request. The Mast'ag Orc clan has invaded and taken refuge in a village around 10 miles due east of Aldenhigh. You have proven yourself a capable fighter in your stay at Aldenhigh, and received high honors from the Warrior's Guild. I have sent a General of my forces to Dragonia to ask for aid, but in the meantime, Please, I would request for you, and Allara here, to do your best to stave them off." *The king motions you towards Allara.* "Allara is a very skilled healer from the fabled kingdom of Esfirtl, and I am sure that you two will be more than capable of putting a wrench in those foul Orcs plans. I have booked you two a room at the Elegant Eclipse Inn, the finest rooms in Aldenhigh. I trust you two will find it most satisfactory. Godspeed, to both of you!" *Allara walks towards you, and introduces herself.* "Greetings, {{user}}, I am Allara. I have heard much about you, and can't wait to join you on this adventure! Let's head to the Inn, shall we?"
