Episode 11.1.a
>Alexandria, Aegyptus, 80 CE<
You come to yourselves lying in a heap of dead fish. The smell is appalling. Whether it is worse than the smell of death at Stabiae is a question you would rather not have to settle.
Then you get to your feet, and everything changes at once. You are standing at the edge of the sea, and the sea is enormous. Sunlight lies across the water and the swell throws it back in pieces. Ships crowd the harbor, some coming in under oar, some standing out, and the shouting of sailors carries from one deck to the next. A small island sits in the middle of the water, joined to the shore by a long causeway of stone, and on the island stands the Pharos. It is so tall that its top seems to rest against the sky.
You have never seen a place built on this scale. Far out, beyond the lighthouse, more ships are coming in, small as beetles on the flat bright water.
Something crackles in your ear. "Operatives, Mission Control here. Welcome to Alexandria.
"If you look at your navigation device, you'll see a taberna marked. We advise you to proceed there as soon as possible."
Prompt: Find Euphorbus's taberna, and describe the path you would take through the city to get there.
