Back at the inn, Arad and Jack sat in the tavern, drinking. "Should we stay awake? In case something happens?" Arad said, looking at the people behind him.
"No, Alcott can take care of most things himself." Jack replied, "We will know if the situation got dire enough to need us. The two of them will blast across the city streets. I'm telling you."
Arad sighed, "I need to go and rest," Arad sighed, standing up. "Already done?" Jack frowned, "That was but one mug. I'm sure you can handle more than anyone."
"Nah, will drink later." Arad looked at him, smiling, "When we have safer nights,"
Jack sighed, "Do what you like," He finished his mug, lifting the whole beer bottle, "This is for me," He watched Arad go upstairs.

Arad reached his room, knocking on the door before entering. Aella sat on the bed inspecting her bow. "Is it damaged?"
"No, I was admiring the craftsmanship." Aella laid the bow to the side and emptied a spot for Arad.
