Update : 16 Febuary 2000

Description : Later on the same night as the setting for

"Garrett's Revenge" earlier in the night

you robbed the vault of the Hammerite bank.

After which you returned to your room at the

inn, you can hear the Hammerites searching

for who is responsible for the robbery, it

only takes one Hammer to check the registry

in the local inn to see if there is anyone

new in this part of town. In the bar below

your room you were met by another keeper,

who had some items you might find useful,

for a price. You go to your room together

to sort out a deal, you hear from him that

the gate to the docks is open, the Hammer's

opened it to escort some drunk guards

somewhere.

The game starts where you are dealing with

the keeper.

Note you start with no weapons, and no starting kit, but your lockpicks,

you wore out your blackjack earlier, it fell to bits just after you got

to your room at the inn, the keeper says you've got to use stealth to

get through the dockyards, and so your sword would just get in the way,

so he will take it and hide it in the Custom House, north of the river,

for a price, which is why you don't have much cash left to buy any stuff.

Also the keeper doesn't have any blackjack's left having sold one to a

guard at the guard house, south of the river.

Items you need to

buy from shop : 2 rope arrows

2 earth arrows (moss)

1 water arrow
