Age of Conan: "The Town Crier"
Posted: Monday June 2nd, 2008

As I was running around polishing off quests in Tortage this past Friday, a conversation, very much like the one in the comic poured out over OOC. Given the proper definition of "town crier", it's an honest question. I've never seen the Tortage Town Crier say a word. He should be announcing something. Yet, he stands there stoic, bare-chested and quiet.
For the sake of humor, I choose to believe the question and response were intentionally dismissive of said "proper definition". The idea of having a guy employed by the town to stand there and cry, yet because of his heritage can not cry, so someone else elects to cry for him...? Just... wow. I'm not clever enough to come up with an acceptable comparative analogy for that.
