I left the next morning with the old man. I was lucky that, at least with my winnings in the game, I had been able to buy some clothes from the Vertrans, worthy of a prince. It's a shame that I was itchy and felt uncomfortable in them, because at the same time, Elsine told me that he was quite handsome, like something out of a period movie.
The Grand Elder and I spoke little that day; it was the first time I saw him put on a Vertran helmet. He seemed very busy managing the different permits so that I could pass through the different Vertran lines until reaching the imperial capital.
The first "problem" we found as soon as we arrived at the connection point in Asgaroth, it seemed that the news of my trip had already spread and had not exactly gone down well, namely that the city was left out of what was happening.
