### 263

The man stares at the Seal with a look of shocked dismay. Without saying a word, he gets up from his chair and beckons you to follow him up a flight of spiral stairs that lead to a domed chamber. Here you meet the captain of the port watch. He listens intently as you tell of the war in Sommerlund and of your urgent mission.

'Issue a red pass immediately,' he orders. 'Top priority.'

You collect your pass, leave the port watchtower and hurry along the street towards the harbour guards.

Turn to 246.
