Reason

Vell came down from his room after a few hours to find his girls already waiting for him at their table. People in the inn were looking at him and whispering to each other. Some quickly turned away when he looked at them.

"Good afternoon, Master," Ruby said with a bright smile. "Did you sleep well?"

"Well enough," he replied, sitting down. "What's with all the staring?"

Regina leaned in close. "There was a strange power coming from your room a few hours ago. Everyone felt it. Some players even left the inn because they were scared."

"Is that so?" He said, not showing any reaction. He picked up a piece of bread and took a bite. "It's nothing to worry about."

The girls exchanged glances but didn't ask more questions. They knew better than to push when he didn't want to talk about something.

"So, what's the plan?" Jolly asked, changing the subject. "Are we going to start earning points?"
