Part 4 (12)

The lumberjack glared in front of him and remarked on a guest house.

"There is an auberge !" He exclaimed.

He then headed toward the location and pressed the knob of the door to enter but by the late time, it was already shut. So he knocked and the keeper, an old lady, came to open the entry.

"Oh, oh! It's the lumberjack in flesh and bone." She said delightedly.

Thereupon she inquired about his needs: "What can I do for you, brave warrior ?"

"Pardon me, Ma'am, I am on the lookout for my companions, a middle-aged man accompanied by a beautiful young maiden. I was wondering if they didn't come over here earlier in the night." Babida replied to the keeper.

The woodsman then went on and told the old lady: "In fact, the two folks I am seeking are visitors from the imperial city, Ekule."

"I hope your friends are not in trouble." The keeper of the auberge said to him.
