Success...

Ahh how glorious this day is! I must admit going into the whole thing was very unnerving. But now that it is over I thirst for more! We landed on the shores of Hebrides and struck swiftly. As we ran into town, the crew yelled viciously at the top of their lungs and swung their weapons in a mad rage; tactics I learned from others on the boat before we landed. We hit the monestary first grabbing gold, silver, paintings, and books. Then we moved into the center of town toward the trading posts. There we found furs, glass, pottery, and even silk! I am not a man of violence and it was not in our interest to forcefully kill anyone unless necessary. But when ransacking a small trading shack, the owner came at me with an axe from behind. Luckily, I was saved by I man who I hadn't met until now. His name is Gunna and I truly owe him my life. He is one of two men from the far east. Gunna speaks of a place where many ethnicities come together to trade and connect. A place where silk drapes the buildings and spices fill the air. A place called Constantinople. This adventure thing is addicting and I need more. I believe when I get back I will journey to these Eastern lands in search of more.
