The vast plains had led Damian and Orio to a walled city, its towering walls casting shadows on their journey. Intrigued, Damian decided to enter, but as he reached the city's checkpoint, a guard requested his guild card, which he didn't possess. With a sigh, Damian paid the entry tax for himself and Orio, their precious coins dwindling, but their path forward secured.
Once inside, Damian wandered the bustling streets of the city, curious about the new experiences this urban world held. It wasn't long before he stumbled upon a group of five men brazenly stealing from a local shop. Instinctively, he mounted Orio, and together they pursued the thieves through the labyrinthine streets.
With determination, Damian managed to apprehend the culprits and retrieve the stolen goods. Returning to the grateful shopkeeper, he was rewarded with four gold coins, a generous sum that would sustain them for a while.
Exhausted from the day's events, Damian sought refuge at an inn, paying for a room and succumbing to a deep slumber. Night blanketed the city, and the stars overhead seemed to twinkle with secrets untold.

These mystical chains held great potential—whether for pursuing wrongdoers or traversing the city like a celestial spiderman.
As he lay beside Orio, the wolf who had become his faithful companion, Damian knew that the adventures within this walled city were just beginning. Tomorrow held new mysteries, challenges, and opportunities as he continued to explore the boundless wonders of this enchanting world. To be continued...
