As we make our way back to the Dagger inn, Levenstein and I discuss our findings from today's scouting. We've discovered that the kingdom is in a state of chaos, with no one truly in charge. The advisors are struggling to make decisions, and the mercenaries have taken advantage of the situation by setting up their own businesses on the outskirts of the kingdom.
"I think we should stay longer before moving into the central town," I suggest, voicing my thoughts out loud.
Levenstein nods in agreement. "Yes, we need to gather more information and assess the situation before making any moves."
As we turn a corner, we come face to face with four rough-looking men armed with swords. They're covered in dirt and have a menacing look in their eyes.
"Well, well, what do we have here?" one of them sneers as he eyes us up and down.
Levenstein stands tall and takes a step forward. "Just two temporary residents passing through," he answers calmly.
