When Ayrenn stepped into Eastwatch, she was shocked. The place was covered in snow and made up of warehouses, homes, and shops. Main Street stretched all the way to the port that was open to merchants. She headed that way, ignoring the sellers shouting out deals to try to lure her in.
'Damn people, never change,' she thought.

''How did he create such monsters?'' she muttered.
