A small boat crosses the serene flow of the Biscune River.

Vice City is a castle city built on the north bank of the Biscune
River. The only way to enter this city was to use the ferry from
the dock on the south bank.
The PCs also boarded this ferry. The boat is a large
gondola that can hold about 10 people, but there are only PCs
as passengers. It would seem that there aren't many who would
dare to cross to the that extremely dangerous "City of Vice".
Eventually, the boat arrives at the dock in the new city area
of Vice City. At the dock, there are stern-faced guards who
strictly control the entry and exit of people and goods.
The guards ask the PCs if they have a "Biscune River
Crossing Permit". If they don't, it would be wise to turn back
from here. "If you want to return straight to the south bank
from this pier, we'll let you go, so hurry up and get on the
return boat," they say.
According to the guards, the system of requiring a permit
to board the ferry to the south bank of the Biscune River was
established more than five years ago by "Millennium" Chezari
(Elf/Male/Unknown/Page 103) and "Red Haze" Naguzabara
(Drake/Male/Unknown/Page 104), two of the 4 Big Wheels
that rule the city. It is said that Chezari proposed this system

necessary to have the "Biscune River Crossing Permit" ([♠5]).
