The streets seemed deserted when he entered the city after the fight. All he heard was the quiet sound of his own footsteps and he started to wonder why no one was around. Usually, the streets would be filled with people walking around or merchants selling things and children playing. He couldn't even spot anyone outside the building where he had been staying.
It must've been really late by now and everyone should be home sleeping. Even when he came across a merchant with some extra coins in his hand, it all felt empty. He walked slowly through the streets until he reached the centre, which was also usually busy but now was just quiet. Everything seemed so dark and abandoned and cold despite the warmth of the sun overhead.
