The Pub lay within a hole that just happened to have been excavated out of
a hill, hence its name. This hill, however, just happened to be on the
edge of a large open field. The two adolescents gleefully ran from the
pub, up the stone steps and towards their skateboards (handily being held
in a board-closet and protected by a troll named Bill). They rode their
boards down the hill and onto the field.
"Hey, Rina, these don't work too good on the weeds." "No brainer, Claude, haven't you heard of the elementary law of thermodynamics and its corollary on friction?" "Uh, no, Rina... I haven't.... uh, so there!" And with that the two teens picked up their boards and walked willy-nilly into the fields, with the much quicker-witted Rina in the lead. It was she, after all, who had gotten them the merc job. "So, uh, Rina... where exactly is this place... uh, Xanadu?" "That's Zanacara, Claude! They told me its through the fields and over the river." "You sure that's not the way to Grandma's house?" "Shut UP!" And so they went... through the fields and over the river, until they came to a signpost that read: NORTH to Macarena; 49 kilometers SOUTH to Caemlyn; 3,129 centimeters East to Socorro; 1 lightyear to Tatooine. "Uh, Rina... I don't see Zacarena, can we go to Macarena instead?" "That's Zanacara, Claude! And NO, we're not going to Macarena. We're heading... um, let's go West on that road made of yellow bricks." "'k with me."
