After enjoying a nice relaxing bath in the hot spring, I decided it was time to get out and mingle with the locals in the tavern area. While the Princess and her knights continued their bath, I decided that I would go mix with the locals and learn the local gossip in the village. Walking out after equipping my gear back on, I made my way out of the hot spring area and walked out over to the tavern section of the inn. Walking over to the bar, I flipped out a silver coin and said, "An ale and everyone's drinks are on me tonight!" This caused a massive uproar throughout the establishment as people rushed out to call in their friends, and I suddenly had women trying to get all cozy with me. Aside from the overly forward women, everything is going according to plan. An hour or so later, things took off into a very energetic swing and I found myself having a drinking competition with a dwarf girl in a German looking barmaid outfit. Laughing and cheering along with everyone, I leaned on the dwarf girl as I said, "So tell me, what news from the Capital?" The dwarf girl looked at me with surprise before clearing her throat and saying, "They say that the Great Sage Darbulius was exiled from the capital due to his views on how to deal with the Savior. According to the rumors, he sought to be simply friends with the Savior and build rapport with them over time. The church declared this blasphemy, as the Savior is the God of Humans and Savior of our race. Who could hope to approach him on even ground? Just who I ask you? Ha ha ha, you are funny looking you are.. Hey what's with your hair and eye color?" Oops looks like its time to go. The dwarf girl pointed out my appearance and now everyone is going to notice that. Bowing to everyone, I swiftly made my way up to the Princess' room and knocked before saying, "I hope that you all are ready for bed, because I seem to have stirred the pot down there with my appearance." With a harrumph, the Princess opened the door, and yanked me into the room. Shutting the door swiftly, the knights were barely containing their mirth as the Princess plopped me down onto a bed in the room. Once seated, we began our discussion.
We discussed on how we would broach the subject of my identity of being the Savior with the church and the king, and so we have much to prepare for, for tomorrow. Let's get some rest then shall we?
