Broken and the group finally arrived in the small village near Wildwood Forest, a quiet place they had chosen to rest before venturing deeper into the wilderness.
As they entered the nearby tavern for a break, Broken took a seat at a wooden table, surrounded by Maylock, Starfall, Livelywood, Toberry, and Ivana.
The knights, meanwhile, took seats at a separate table, giving their lord and his companions some space.
"I just got a few notifications that there was an attack on Slumdon Town," Broken said. "Is this the attack from the Alliance you mentioned to me a few days ago, Maylock?"
"Indeed it is. But Elincia and the others managed to drive them all away—sent them packing straight to the Temple of Resurrection in Valantar. That's about the best service we could offer them."
"Were any of the NPCs hurt? What about the people of Slumdon?"
