They're all at it, shouting at me for bumping into them. Men, women, children, some animals, knights and shopkeepers, fishermen and my team mates. Some of them I believe weren't actually bumped but they still stumbled back a couple of paces and complained.
The town's a funny shape. There are a lot of dead ends, but with that come a lot of treasure chests and things I need to find while standing in certain places. I haven't got the hang of this yet because I walk past the point where the noise and graphic occur. Finding it again doesn't always work and being precise is even harder. Just what am I looking for?
At one point I lost my money to some streetwise urchins, and despite my protestations they made me search for them all in a where's wally competition. It turns out they're rubbish at hiding.
In chapter 4 I meet up with a girl. She's a well-spoken lady, so I'm glad she wants to talk because I can listen. We watch the fireworks together and it's very pretty. Lazulis city is a big place, but not big enough to hide her from the guards. It seems they really want to take her away, so we dash about getting into non-lethal tussles. Eventually I find a place that's safe and we can head to the tavern to hide.
Running away from the guards - I think this is the bit of the game I've found hardest so far (up to about chapter 25). Lots of nasty slowdown to make things a little harder too.
