After briefly parting ways with Tartax, Ivita paid some ship owners and set foot on the shore of Lahaina Town.
For 2 pennies, Ivita learned from a local child where the sailors and captains were most likely to frequent the nearest tavern.
The child stared at Ivita and said, "Sir, do you need me to lead the way? It would only cost 2 more pennies."
Ivita shook his head and waved his hand in rejection, saying, "You've already given me the general direction."
"So I don't need you to lead the way."
Having said that, he departed with his five warriors, two knights, two vampires, a carpenter, and a chef, leaving behind the dumbstruck child.
The child probably never imagined that someone would try to save even 2 pennies.
Leading his group down two streets flooded with stalls selling local snacks, beer, and wine, Ivita looked at the harbor filled with ships about thirty meters away and couldn't help but suspect that these vendors specifically targeted newly-landed sailors.
