„names have power we don`t know about. Even though we use them and give them, we can`t own them."
-So… just to be clear –
Aries and Damon resumed the conversation with the secretary
-What no- What`s your name – Damon jumped into Aries`s words
And also, jumped into Aries pushing him away .
-Mine? I didn`t tell you yesterday?-
-No. no you did not. –
-Oh. That's weird, I thought I introduced myself properly.
She did a little bow down , and greeted them again.
-Pleased to meet you. I`m Lisa and this is the "Red mustache" adventurers guild in Havenmoon.
-good to know. Do we… also say the guild thing when we greet someone or is that just you? –
-You can mention you work here, but not necessarily. I just have this in my contract.
Aries this time pushed back Damon to have his say.
-So what now … ms Secretary. – she looked at him.
Damon looked at him.
-I mean miss Lisa.-
They kept looking at him.
-just Lisa? –
-Yes Aries, if you could. Im not that old.- she threw her hair flamboyantly
-Okey then. What now Lisa? We have the quest done and the proof here.
-hmm? now? Oh yes. We will post a quest for someone else to take care of the goblin village.
One ,or both if you want , will come with them so that the team won`t waste time looking for it. -
-Don`t look at me – Damon waved his shoulder. – I am staying here for a while –
-True. Aries you`re going in that case.-
-Sure, why not. You`ll be fine right? – Aries leaned on Damon, again, with his hand on his shoulder.
Small shock of pain.
-Actually – Damon moved his hand – I`ll think I need some time alone man. –
-Sorry. Won`t happen again. –
-That`s it for today. Come tomorrow, we`ll see who will pick up the job.
After that, Damon and Aries went out on their separate ways.
Aries opened the door to his room in the inn.
~Man, why isn`t the shower invented here ~
Not his world, not his usual room.
No internet, no fridge, no games, no novels, no shower.
~This will take time to get used to ~
Took off his old uniform, suspiciously looking similar to other people clothes.
Laid down his sword, nice blade of unknown origin
Fell onto the bed, weirdly sleepy.
And his consciousness faded rapidly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Damon entered the shack.
Small place, but cheap.
Some farmer on the town`s outskirts didn`t really use it so they bargained for a couple hours for it.
Small, smelly, some light went through the roof.
~Meh, I`ve been to worse places~
Still could`ve been much better.
~at least the fireplace is decent ~
He made sure the fire was out , smoke could fill up the whole room. Not the nicest feeling.
Took off his chest piece, still with blood markings from before.
His shirt too, to check his bandages and the wound.
~chk. Annoying, i`ll have to buy some guards later~
Threw aside his sword, boots and everything else he smuggled from the dead guy
And fell onto the bed, sleeping like a log.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Giant on a throne looked down on the world.
Goddess from the side of hair mason bed laid down her sight.
Both knew, that the other one has made their move already.
IT HAS BEGUN
