The Meeting With The Leftward Stronghold Leader

Observing the man's presence, my attention was drawn not only to his physique, which was notably muscular, though not quite reaching Fifi's level, but also to an interesting detail that caught my eye – a worn-out silver metal chain hanging around his neck. 

This wasn't something that appeared to be crafted within our village's capabilities. Furthermore, the circular metal object hanging from the chain, gently swaying with his movements, was something I was certain no gift could create.

Also, not only that but when I looked at his legs, what he had used to cover his feet, my eyes couldn't help but linger on it as it made countless thoughts race through my mind all in a single second as I saw him walk towards us along with the two guards flanked by both of his sides. 

However, just before he had arrived in front of us, I turned my head to the side and noticed Fifi coming from my back to stand beside me.
