He missed his horses.
Sure, he could have taken the horses into the desert, but they required more feeding, more water, and they would end up costing a lot more money than just the camels. Oh the camels were good creatures, but always a little more belligerent than horses were. Camels had that tired groan that just made him feel like he was pushing them too hard, but he never did. He always made sure his camels were well taken care of. So he had to leave his horses out of the desert, and take his camels into it. They seemed to love the desert more than the small place in the Sehra grasslands that he left them.
Still, he missed the horses.
Essyrn was a great place for him to go though, because of the money he could make. Things that were commonplace where he travelled fetched a very fair price down here. It was worth the trip, and then he could take things that were commonplace down here back up to Serendipity and Adela. It was the perfect little arrangement he had going. The camels weren't too impressed of course, because of...well...they always thought they would have a reprieve, taking an empty wagon back...but that was not the case. Sure, he gave them a two day rest and all, made sure they were quite watered and happy before he hooked them back up to the wagon.
The man in question, the fellow who was driving the wagon through the streets of Essyrn, was a chestnut brown haired young man. He was a man who could be called...normal...medium...he didn't look like he was completely out of the ordinary. He could have passed for just an ordinary person really. He had good posture though, a kind looking face with soft green eyes. He even had a cheery smile, one where just the right amount of teeth showed.
Right now he was looking at a very...interesting sight at the front gates to the great walled city of Essyrn. He wasn't sure what she was, but...well he wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating toast. Or something like that. He was sure that he could remember the expression later. He pulled on the reigns slightly slow his progress as he came up to beside the woman. "You look like you could use a bit of good luck Miss, I'm headed north, please tell me the Gods have blessed us both and sent you on the same path." The man asked the strange dancer with a pleasant smile upon his lips.
