The road had been clear for most of the trip, aside from a small skirmish with a group of thugs who thought it was smart to take on the body guards of this merchant's wagon. The elder horse walked slowly and the wheels of the cart creaked with each rotation as it edged forward slowly. One person was walking along side the cart with a sword at his side, though his build hardly made it look like he knew how to use such a weapon. Aside from the merchant there was only one other person, they were sitting inside the cart holding a staff across their lap.
Rolling his eyes he let out a slight sight, it hadn't been that far of a walk. Just from the last town, at the least he could act like he was on duty. But Luden knew better then to question his brother's lack of effort... in anything. Though his complaints were pushed aside seeing as the town was within viewing distance. At the least they'd get some gold for the assistance and then be able to restock on supplies, plus if the pay was well enough they might be able to get a room for the night instead of sleeping in yet another stable.
The merchant finally spoke up the closer they got to town explaining that if the two helped him unload the crates and other supplies he'd throw in a bonus and they could use the back room for the night if they needed a place to stay. The idea sounded good to Luden, besides knowing that his brother wasn't going to lift any crates. they'd be lucky if he lifted a finger let alone a box of supplies.
