Ethan’s Gamble [Part 1]

It was right after sunset.

The usually crowded Tavern was awfully deserted, and its doors were firmly closed.

No light could be seen on the first floor, and only one room was faintly lit on the second floor.

But, this room was located at the very back of the Tavern, so the regular patrons weren’t able to see it.

It was also raining hard just like always, so people didn't really want to stay outside and get soaked by the rain.

Fortunately, there was a scroll plastered on the door that said “Temporarily Closed. Doing renovations, and will reopen in two days.”

The tavern’s regular customers found this notice very unusual.

But, since a proper notice was posted, they decided to just come back after two days to see the renovations that Agnes and her family were working on.

While everyone was feeling disappointed because they couldn’t have fun at their usual hang out place, the candle light inside Ethan’s room flickered from time to time.
