This is a bustling city on the edge of the empire. The people here are a little too much like the savages that we have taken it from. This is from two generations of isolation. The ship is calmed and you and the other men are send out to buy supplys and haul them back to the ship. You are with four other men who are buying crates of wine. Teams of two carry the stuff back. But in a dark alley thievs confront you. There are seven of them and they have the drop on you and your ship mates. They slip up and put blades to everyone's backs. They relieve you of the wine and they move on.
