The night had deepened, casting a shroud of darkness over the town of Terance.
I sat alone in my room, the weight of knowledge heavy on my mind. The conversation I had with the merchant's connection echoed in my thoughts, the words swirling and intertwining as I tried to make sense of the puzzle before me.
'According to what he said, it seems I'll have to take action sooner than I intended.'
Rumors of a delegate from the esteemed Lyma Family arriving in Terance had piqued my curiosity.
It seemed that this visit was somehow linked to the exploration of the enigmatic Wild Lands.
'I guess that's why security was so tight when I arrived here. That means they're coming very soon, right?'
The merchant had advised me to seek more information from the Information Guild, an elusive organization known for operating covertly in the shadows.
