The two beggars sat on the edge of the road watching the activity unfolding before them. Seemingly endless streams of workers dashed in and out of the large iron gates, each one bent almost double under the weight of the supplies they carried. The sounds of barked orders and loud hammering rang through the air drowning out the usual sounds of the city.

"I heard they is buildin' a new palace for the Queen or some such." the first said to his companion. He looked mournfully at his empty wooden bowl and cursed the lack of generosity shown lately by folk in the area. The other beggar scratched his chin and shook his head.

"Dont believe it 'tis. Little small for a palace - most likely it's an inn for rich people I'm a thinkin'."

A shadow loomed over both men cutting out the sunlight and causing them to blink as they stared up. A squad of soldiers dressed in black and gold stood over them, grim expressions fixed to their faces - clubs clutched in their gloved hands.

"Be off with you wretches! This ground belongs to the High Lords of Tear. If we catch you begging here again you'll be beaten to within an inch of your worthless lives!"

Both men rose and fled without word, seeking a safer place to ply their trade.
