New Quest
Theo put down Salina gently on a clean bed inside one of the village's most spacious huts. The villagers had cleared out, leaving them in peace as they tended to their wounded and weary party.
The village elder, an old woman with a wise, wrinkled face, had greeted them with a knowing nod, handing over a basket filled with healing herbs and bandages.
"Lord hero!, We all heard about you, We are so lucky to have you here, " said the old village woman with a warm smile, her eyes shining with admiration as she handed over a steaming pot of herbal tea to Theo.
The warmth of her gaze and the comforting aroma of the brew seemed to ease the tension in his muscles.
"Thank You for you hospitality," Theo said with a weary smile, accepting the tea gratefully.
He knew that the villagers looked up to heroes as their protectors, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility towards them.
