Archer exited the shop and scanned his surroundings. Teuila was surprised by his generosity towards the old woman and asked, "Why did you give her so much gold?"
He turned to her and replied, "I have plenty of gold, and in the future, she might come across valuable spells for us."
Teuila nodded in agreement, and they began walking down the street. She looked around with fascination, like a country bumpkin in the city. As they strolled, people gazed at them and whispered to each other.
"Look at that couple. They're not from around here."
"That girl is stunning. She looks like a warrior princess."
"They seem like a great couple. I wonder if they're married."
Archer ignored the comments and continued walking until the castle came into view. Teuila stopped and stared in awe.
Without taking her eyes off the castle, she spoke, "Is that your home?"
He nodded. "Unfortunately, it is. We have to wait until night to get on Ella's balcony."
