BIG PARTY IN THE CITY OF TURMUS

sir gareth

While I was preparing my stall for the great fair in the city of Holmesk, the city where I recently moved, to work as Magistrate and Editor of the Gazette of Moons, I received a message from my long-time friend Sir Nicholas Eel, inviting me to the great feast organized in the city of Turmus, with dancers and lots of wine served to the guests by the Kajire always attentive to filling the cups of the free.

I arrived and the big Inn was already full, but luckily Sir Nic had reserved me a place near him, we have known each other since the time we lived together in the city of Sais, I was a Magistrate and he was a Slaveholder, then our paths diverged, until we met again, it was he who celebrated one of my weddings, and he was also a Lawyer in a trial, then we lost sight of each other, but when we escaped from Port Victoria, I followed Sir Ember with his slave Rose, who I had fallen in love with, and we landed in Turmus, and I met him again, he was the first Slaveholder and had a lot of work and was active, while Ember after a few days, having no business to conclude, went away without leaving any trace. I didn't have much work, other women arrived taking the place of Scribe and Magistrate, the newspaper wasn't doing well, in Turmus few people knew how to read, Rose had gone away, so I no longer had any reason to stay

In Turmus I had a big house, a job as a Scribe and an office for the newspaper La Voce di Turmus, I lived there for a few years, then I left, going up the Wosk to the city of Thentis, we stayed there for a few years, I had a class for Scribe, but due to a drama with Lady Monica we left the city. and with my companion Brjiana, we left first for the North, then to the South in the new Cartassa, from there I reclaimed the land of my Ancestors in the desert, and we rebuilt the Oasis of the seven palms, we were happy, I had my family's Oasis El Nairad again, we had our newspaper. with a fair amount of success, until she fell in love with an Opal prospector, and ran away with him to the mines in the mountains of the desert, this hit me hard because she had taken all my possessions and the coins obtained from the newspaper by running away, I had to start over in the oasis of Cartassa with Lady Safina.

Nothing more was heard of Brjiana and her Opal-seeking lover, it is said that they remained trapped in a tunnel, but I don't want to think about it.

When we arrived in Turmus, Lady Sella and her other friends were sitting at a table outside the inn, while a little further away, other dancers were performing on the dance floor. I, Sir Nic and other free people sitting around the large dance floor inside, watched in amazement.

at the Kajires dances, the music cheered up the atmosphere and the barrels of Cos wine were wasted, in short a beautiful evening, thanks to Sir Nic for his invitation.
