Athelred

It seems to have got about that I was looking for adventurers, and I was approached by a tall fellow (heh heh, not me!) calling himself Athelred. He's a bard - he plays the mandolin and sings quite nicely. I'm not sure about him, but I told him to come along anyway. He says he's interested in finding historical documents and learning songs, but there's something odd about him. Maybe it was when he asked if he could keep his mandolin in the wagon rather than in the cart, and I realised the mandolin would have cost more than the wagon did...
