As you approach Maldra Keep the entrance guards move out of the way from
the gates and allow you passage.  The creaky boards that support your weight
over the moat do not povide much comfort to you as you walk across.  Your
attempt at greeting the castle guards is met by a cold shoulder.  The guards
apparently are here to do their job and nothing more.
