The line into Nibenay was long. The
music continued to play and everyone swayed to the tune. After an
hour, the group finally reached the gates. They were nervous, Aziza
is an escaped slave from Nibenay. The gate guard asked them their
business and had them pay two bits per leg to get inside the gates.
The sights of Nibenay overwhelmed Ren,
who had never been to a city before, and he stared blankly at the
carvings and colorful clothing of the city. Seeing an attractive
topless Templar caused him to blush. Yaotl pushed Ren along, not
wanting to attract attention.

Cyrus saw all the krama wearing
Nibnese and noticed the strange looks he, and his companions, were
receiving. A merchant called out to them that the look like
outsiders, because of their clothing. Cyrus, Ren, and Aziza bought
some new clothes, including kramas of their own. Yaotl simply
bartered for a new pair of boots and new clothes for Basheera. Cyrus
insisted on buying expensive clothes, snake skin boots, a embroidered
linen shirt, and high quality breeches. He noticed that Nibnese
attitudes, toward him, changed for the better.
