Seth chuckled and continued walking around the city, passing by different stalls and looking at all the items they were selling. He barely bought anything, but he seemed a lot more refreshed by the time he returned to the tavern.

He spent the evening the same way as he did the previous one, listening to the bard songs while enjoying some sweet alcohol in the tavern.

A considerable commotion could be seen extending from the Royal Palace to the mountain pass to the north, with people moving to welcome the kingdom’s guests.

Even the king left the Royal palace, bringing with him a small squad of knights as he traveled toward the city’s northern entrance.
