Unexpected Encounter

The group arrived at the Identification Post a few minutes later when they came across a place similar to a border post, where new arrivals had to go through a search and justify themselves.

Minos stopped next to a counter ahead of his group and got straight to the point with one guard there. "I'm looking for permission for necromancers to go deep into the city."

The moment Minos said necromancers, several of the guards, and individuals there to pick up permits or settle other matters, turned their gazes in his direction.

Necromancers, even those who were enemies of the royal family, were frowned upon in rebel or invader forces across the continent.

Those oppressed by the sovereign forces had such strong resentments that it was difficult to ignore the origin of a necromancer.

"Necromancers? Tsk! More of them?" wondered one man in the area, seeing yet another group with a necromancer arriving in Hilltop City.
