Chapter 264: Rusty Nail!
[Location: River-Cross – The Rusty Nail Inn]
Returning to the wagon, the three of them continued their journey through the town as they continued to gather more information on the current state of the world
According to reports, since the end of the war, both the Dragon and Central empires have begun to aggressively kidnap and attack all elves outside their empire as well as recruit soldiers
Cultists such as the Twilight cult and others had become more frequent with demon sightings and appearances being more and more common
In the veridian light or the kingdom of light, a decree for a holy war had been launched, and they had begun to aggressively recruit and train paladins
All over the world, all kinds of moves had begun to speed up, churches began to deliver miracles more frequently and recruit believers
Mage towers and aura schools began to shut their doors in fear of being caught up in the wild fire
All over the world, no where was calm as a dark shadow seemed to hover across the whole world.
And after a few more hours of information gathering, they slowly made a way to a an in called the rusty nail, and after paying for one room, the three of them entered with a look of exasperation on their face
The room was small, smelling of damp wood and boiled cabbage. The single candle on the table flickered, casting long, dancing shadows against the peeling wallpaper.
Alaric, Elena, and Lukas sat around the rickety table, eating a silent meal of hard bread and stew.
The rain drummed relentlessly against the roof, drowning out the noise of the drunken patrons downstairs.
