"Then go," Percivald says, "You blasted traitor." The dwarfs lug Radislaw outside. "We are to escort you to the gate," one dwarf states, pointing down the alleyway.

"I will do as you please Percivald"

, he thought, but smiled humbly on the outside.

"Show me the way and I will go, off to Verden it is!"

The two dwarfs take Radislaw to a small gate where most non-humans use. One dwarf slugs Radislaw in the small of his back, making the gnome wince in terrible pain. "That will be my knife next time I see you." The other dwarf pushes Radislaw down into the mud as they watch with laughter.

The gnome waits a bit, until they leave, and raises himself from the mud.

"Cursed sons of striga.." he mumbles to his chin.

Afterwards he started walking the path to Verden, hoping to remmember where it is.

Verden is a long way away. The gnome will have to travel south over land to Mayena, likely, then cut west through Brugge. It wasn't a trip that seemed likely doable without a mount or something to ride on. Traveling by foot would surely take him months.

Radislaw makes sure to walk for a while, at least until he is out of line of dwarfs sight. Than he finds a reasonably large stone, plants his behind on it and does some thinking.
The gnome laid out every item he had with him, an axe, armor, helm, shield and s sling. Not one of these things he could eat, or sleep in, nor ride. He did have a hefty amount of cash though, and now it was time to either buy or steal any of these necessities.

So he looked left and right, and thought long and hard, hoping to either spot a traveler, or remember if he ever saw a village in these parts.
