| 356 Some parts of the old cobbled roadway still remain and for the want of a better path you stick to it, galloping away from the toll bridge and hopefully still out of sight of the Kalborean patrol. Luckily the road keeps the bridge between yourself and the soldiers and you find no pursuit as you hurry on westwards. After a short time you come to a cross-roads. You call it a cross-roads, but it is nothing more than an intersection, where the road ahead and a road from the north meet but then disappear into the grasses no more than a stone's throw from a weather-beaten signpost that leans crookedly at their junction. The signpost shows all the marks of long exposure to the harsh suns and even harsher weather of these plains. A closer look finds it is so faded it is hard to tell the directions it was made to deliver. It does seem to be indicating a town only a short distance to the north. With one eye on the approaching storm you consider whether it might not be worth a look.
| Do you wish to go north and find shelter from the storm? If so turn to section 276. If you would rather continue on westwards, turn to section 308.
