Kime Kelbam was a Dunliner who resided in Ecnarf after serving in a great global war. While he wasn't rich, he was a profligate spender. He became the paramour of fellow Dunlin expat Lady Ett Brashli. The two became somewhat bored with Ecnarf, and decided to see the running of the bulls in Amblona, Astilia. They soon convinced Dubyook expats Baek Jarns and Obert Ohn to come with them. Kelbam knew that Ett had once been in a relationship with Jarns, and could see that Ohn was attracted to Ett, but was quite amenable to the idea of all four making the trip.
