You are standing in another corner of the Courtyard Proper.  People
wander about here, either on daily errands or just relaxing and chatting
away.  The atmosphere is very friendly and everyone seems to be smiling
about something.  It really is quite contagious!  An occasional off-duty
guard or two can be found wandering around while he isn't on post.  The
Runic Castle is to the northwest.  
     A large apple tree is here giving off shade and fruit.
