	''"The town is most primitive, although rich in trade goods and treasures such as furs and amber. The only building of stone is the hall of the king, rising at the centre of the town. All others live in timber longhouses, and while some are intricately decorated, most are little better than barns. The main foods available are fish, of which there is far too much, and hard rye bread that would crack the teeth of Thor. Only during feasts is there much meat for eating. Thankfully, these are as frequent as the lies of an Azeryani trader, and involve long nights of drinking, dancing and sporting with wenches of dubious worth. It often seems that the whole of the town is related, and would gladly spend every waking moment in gossip and outrageous boasting. Never in all my journeys from Zerula to Golotha have I seen such a distasteful yet profitable place".''
