I must have passed out at some point because I don't remember entering the village, or meeting any of its occupants.
I groaned as I slowly opened my eyes, it felt like even my eyelids were fighting against me. My entire body was still incredibly sore and having injuries on both sides of my body meant that no matter how I lay on the bed, it hurt.
I slowly looked around, my body protesting at every movement, seeing the inside of a rather plain house with simple wooden furniture. There was nothing as fancy as the appliances I had seen in the capital (I guess that was to be expected), but the bed was quite comfy and that was all that mattered.
As I continued scanning the room, seeing the golden light of day through an open window, a face was suddenly shoved in front of mine.
Before I could take in the face, let alone speak, the person opened their mouth speaking extremely rapidly.
