A buffet of souls

It had been five days since she returned home, and the hunt for the trinket the deity of misfortune dropped on Nordem continued, fruitlessly.

Scarlet had been excited to visit a new world but the novelty had worn off now. 

She and Severus had left the first city, having exhausted every tavern and shady bar they could find. She also used her energy and found nothing. 

They had come to a new city, one that was a bit more visually appealing that the first one in which she had landed. The buildings here were at least standing. 

But given the warring state of this world, cities were highly guarded by very mean guards who demanded for money for refugees to enter. 

Scarlet did not have to pay that fee, she and Severus simply waltzed through the gates manning the large city as if they owned it.

"Do you know something Severus," she said. 

"What?" he asked her.
