    I enter the city looking around nervously having never been anywhere out of my home town before. I move through the streets a little disoriented at the size of everything and the mass amount of people. It was a strange sight to see. I had lived in a small town which dwindled day by day after being inflicted with a plague. Seeing a group of women I approach them. "Excuse me, can you please point me the way to the hospital? I'm seeking employment as a nurse."

    As Loci enters the city and begins to look around, one of the guards on the inside of the gate notices her and can tell by her reaction that she is likely new to the city. He starts to talk to one of the other guards, letting them know that he is going to be gone for a short while before he starts to walk over towards her.

    As the guard does this one of the women replies to Loci. Oh, hi there, you seem to be new here? The place that I think you'd be looking for is the Medical Shelter. At least that's where they need the most help. With the monsters acting up recently there have been a lot of refugees. Another one of the women points down the road to a four corners up ahead, and a box that is there. I'd imagine that you'll find better directions that way, there is a directory there dearie. It will show you where it is.

    "Thank you Ma'am, you've been most helpful" I move up the road a ways before reaching the box and looking at the directions before looking around trying to orient myself, as I do I catch sight of the guard out of the corner of my eye, not suspecting anything of him though. I move along the street towards where the directions make mention of the medical shelter. All the while looking around at the buildings and stands around me.

    The guard picks up his pace a little as she continues on her way, after she moves on from the directory he realizes that unless he wants to chase her all over the city, he needs to speak up. Miss? Miss! Excuse me! Could I speak with you for a moment? He continues towards her as he is trying to get her attention so he doesn't have to go much further from his post. It would be easy to tell from his demeanor that she wasn't in trouble.

    I turn around and raise and eyebrow looking at the guard. "Yes, Sir? What do you need of me? I'm kind of in a hurry. I need to get a job before nightfall. Elsewise I'll have to sleep in the alley rather than at the in...which now that I think of it I have no clue the location of." I glance around at the area around me looking for any possible weapons in case one became nessasary...even if it was a big rock.

    It sounds like you are in luck, first let me recite this decree.  Milady, due to the lack of able bodied guard, we are here by recruiting every able body being to take up arms against the masses of monsters and bandits stirred up by recent events. This order was given by the peacekeepers.   Reaching in to a pouch he pulled out an odd looking token, handing it towards Loci. This token will get you some basic armor and weapons from the armory down the road, as well as some gold coin given for enlisting in to the recruitment army. If you have any questions please ask the barrack captain. He will have more details and answer any questions that you may have.  Really it is less of an army and moreso people volunteering to help keep the area around Mendefera safe when they do happen to travel. Directions to the barracks can be found in that directory that you just looked at.

    "Interesting proposition." I muse over your words for a moment before accepting the token. "I assume that there is a medical camp for the Militia? I have an interest in the study of life and death you see. I will fight, though when the day is done that is where I do prefer to be." I turn back to the box and look at the barracks location, making a mental note of it before turning back to the guard. "I think I'll go see this Captain, I believe we can reach a mutual...understanding."
