A Day in the Life of a Tudor Merchant |
You walk along the riverside. To your right are fields with the Marsh Wall beyond. It doesn't take long until you're following the riverbank around alongside the mouth of the Frome and you're approaching Broad Quay. The Quay is quite quiet, though there is the sound of rowdy singing in the distance probably coming from a quayside tavern. Half way along the quay is the nightwatchman who is in discussions with someone who sounds like a customs official. When you reach them you tell them your story. "Robbed you you say. What, of all your money? Well, we'd best get back to that ship, see if we can find the Captain. I reckon it's the crew what robbed you." Next. |
