The town criers are roaming about the city, calling out news. Fresh from the palace, they say. The news goes something like this:

"Hear ye, hear ye. The palace has just received notification from our fair neighbour, Brindle, that the infestation of demons and monsters is affecting their town as well. The city officials have sent request for assistance, and we are sending our Heroes. Anyone else who wishes to join in our fair city's crusade against the evil that has fallen upon us may sign up at the palace entrance. The Heroes, both present and future, will leave at high noon tomorrow."

The bartender casually makes a statement to all in the bar that upon signing up for the original quest to aid Maplestead and collected your gold, you have been conscripted until further notice by the Palace of Maplestead. The barman goes on to explain that you will still get paid for every mission you partake in individually, but you're stuck here until they relieve you of duty. He adds a quick, humble note of thanks at the end of his explanation, though he has a bit of lingering sorrow in his eyes as he looks over the room, seeing many young 'uns that he'd rather not be dead.
