You see a younger man sitting at the table. He has been sitting there for quite some time and doesn't appear to have any plans to leave. "Hey there, can you spare a moment? I would like to ask you something," he says as you approach.

The man smiles politely at you, though there is a look of concern upon his face. "If you have a moment, I'd like to ask you something."

"What can I do for you?"
"I am waiting here for my fiancee. She travels with the Silver Scarab caravan that passes through this region every fourth month. The caravan was supposed to be here four days ago, but it hasn't arrived and it is almost never this late. Now there are people who are spreading rumors that Goblins have come ashore to the east, near Macross Point. I am fearful that her caravan was attacked." <pb>"Her name is Magpie. Please tell me, have you seen her or the caravan of which I speak?"

"Yes, actually I have spoken with Magpie."
The man's face lights up. "You have! Is she well? Where is the caravan?"

"No, I have not seen the caravan that you speak of."
The man looks forlorn. "Could you do me a favor? If you come across the caravan that she travels with, find her and give her this letter. Please!"

"I am sorry. I am just too busy to make a special trip back here anytime soon."
The man just nods and continues to drink, looking out the window at any sound that might be the arriving caravan.

"Do I look like a delivery service? Never mind, just give me the letter. Chances are I'll run into her at some point."
"Thank you, so very much! I don't have any gold to pay you now, but when you return to me after you deliver this letter, I'll be able to pay you then."

"The caravan is on the shores of Macross Point. It is held up there until ferry service resumes to the mainland. Magpie seems to be fine."
"Thank you! It's good to know that she is safe. I'm sure the caravan will return to Moonrise any day now."

"I found Magpie and gave her your letter. She wrote back to you." [Give man the Returned Letter]
The man excitedly grabs the letter from you and begins to read it. You see the look on his face turn from elation to confusion, and finally to an emotionless, blank stare. As he reads the last line on the page, he lets the paper slip from his fingers and tumble to the floor. "She...she said she doesn't want to get married anymore."

"I am sorry, man. Love is a terrible thing, isn't it?"
The man buries his face into his hands. "Yes, I suppose it is," he says quietly as he begins to sob.

[Quietly stand there and wait to be paid]
You can see the man occasionally peek through his fingers to see if you are still there. When he notices you, he closes his fingers and lets out a muffled wail.

[Clear your throat]
"Oh, you are still here. I suppose you want a payment for your services. Well, I have no money left as I've spent it all on this engagement ring." The man pulls out a shiny diamond ring from his shirt pocket. <pb>He looks at it for another minute and then abruptly stuffs it into your hand. "Very well, you might as well take it. I have no need for it anyway."
