Adventurers' Guild

It didn't take long to get there, as the Guild was only a few blocks from where the "Stone of Wisdom" was.

The guild building was quite simple, it had two floors and was a bit old.

Entering the guild, Derick saw that there was almost no one there. Only one woman and two men. The two men were drinking, while the woman was behind the counter, apparently, she was the Guild's receptionist.

The woman was good looking, her hair blond and her eyes blue. She looks about 20 years old.

"Good Afternoon!" The woman spoke, the two who were drinking didn't even notice that Derick entered.

"Hello"

"Are you here to register with the Guild, or are you already a member?"

"No, I am here to register"

Looking closely at the man who had just entered, the receptionist was a little stunned, as if she had remembered something she didn't want to have remembered.

Derick was a little uncomfortable with the receptionist's attitude and didn't know what to do. Fortunately, Derick realized that she had a name tag that said her name.

"Alice, are you okay?"

"Yes..." Alice snapped out of her state of sadness "you are here to register, right?"

"Yes"

"Then give me ID and a gold coin"

Derick handed both to her, Alice saw the ID and authenticated the gold coin, but before proceeding with the registration, Alice looked at Derick again, with a look of sadness.

"Derick, are you sure you want to go there? You know it's very dangerous out there. I'm asking you this because you remember my brother."

"Yes, I have..." Derick hesitated for a moment "If I may ask, what happened to your brother?"

"So " Alice was sad again, but still told what happened....

Two years ago, Henry, Alice's brother died outside the city. He and 4 other people were surrounded by a pack of Rank "E" wolves, although the 5 were rank "D" there were a lot of wolves. Only one of them made it back alive.

Derick was sad for Alice, but he still wanted to go outside. Because what good would it do to stay scared his whole life, knowing that a "Second Great Calamity" might happen?

"Ok. Good luck then." Alice finished the application and handed over a silver Dog Tag.

The Dog Tag had two functions: First, permission to be able to leave the city. And the second, to identify the dead.
