Where shattered hopes breed

He carries along,burying the blade of his sword into the ground as though it was a walking stick. The blueish black cloak he wears, torn, ripped, revealing the broken leather armor and eaqually torn and ripped pants. All of which covered in dark, now dry stains, possibly from the healing scabs of the wounds he has apparently suffered.
He remembers the ship he was on.....attacked, not the nigh before last in his memory, but he knows it feels far longer, by cuthroats. With the rudder man dead, nobody could steer the ship, and it hit something.....rocks....it hit rocks....
rocks in the middle of the ocean?
where is this place?
Aftwords he woke up on a beach.....a beach of this place...this strange...island. It was not on his maps, but the charts were horribly outdated anyway.
He wondered if the cuthroats that wounded him were of this land....or if theres any inhabitants at all...
He stops at the crest of a hill, coughing and hacking wildly. He must have been exposed to wild air for several days....
Whats that? Smoke?
He turns his head out over the fields before him
A walled city.....there must be people in it.....they will assist me!
The man vigorously walks stumbles towards the city, driving his now useless sword into the earth and throwing himself upon it.
