During the day, one could see people in the streets, and every villager displayed fear towards outsiders; but come nightfall, they would hide in their homes and not show their faces, and in the vastness of the village town, not a single communicative person could be found.
After walking for quite some time, he finally arrived at a place named "Hedgehog Alley," because there was a huge notice posted there.
[Grand Opening of Hedgehog Tavern: Delicious grape wine now available in limited supply]
Additionally, the notice came with a map, as if afraid those coming to drink would be unable to find the tavern's location.
As an outsider, he could determine the location of the tavern based on the map.
Now he truly had no choice but to go.
He advanced down Hedgehog Alley, torch in hand, along the brick-paved path.
Not far along, a hanging stone bridge appeared above his line of sight.
