Adventures of a Connipton Cowboy

The blue skies blaze overhead as you ride your horse along the dusty trail from Sidestep City to Connipton. There's little work in the city for a cowboy such as yourself, and there ain't much grass for the cows to eat, neither. So, about a week ago, you decided to head out to the likely-sounding town of Connipton to try your luck.

As darkness falls and the stars start to appear, you see the welcoming lights of the town up ahead. You also see three shadowy figures on horseback at the head of the Main Street.
