We reached the HQ- just before the afternoon-
People bowing-
Nobles on the ground-
A clear sky with loads of fresh wind-
So far so good-
No sign of any hostilities or-
Anything for that matter-
The soldiers here didn't know about the whereabouts of Xerphantalous and his demon.
The spies from the city didn't either.
Were they not here?
Or were they just hiding somewhere- waiting?
'I've to just take over this place-'
Taking over was a surefire way to complete two quests and gain a level-
Without that one level- I couldn't use the damn sword. And if I couldn't use it, wouldn't it be damn pointless?
Still-
'I basically have all my skills at the ready. And I've already fought him twice-'
The guy had to run away the last time and he seemed fairly smart.
He wouldn't just start a fight out of nowhere and for no reason.
