Lyrian and the other three followed this old man into the village even further, as the majority of the crowd followed them.
While walking up the hill on which the village was built, Lyrian noticed that most of the villagers looked poverty-stricken.
Torn clothes and dirty faces were prominent in every single person that he seemed to look at.
Before long, Lyrian and the others were led to a fairly large hut near the top of the hill.
The old man pushed a door to the side and entered, gesturing for the adventurers to come in as well.
After them came as many villagers as could fit. The rest stayed outside, wanting to get a look at or hear what was going on inside.
As soon as Lyrian entered, he noticed a man who seemed slightly younger than the one that had brought them there sitting on top of an elevated dirt square.
His eyes were closed, brows furrowed, and he maintained a cultivating lotus position.
