Chance Encounters

After conversing with Kain for hours, Eran finally managed to free himself from Camp Kain. As usual, Kain loved to talk and wouldn't let anyone leave until the last bottle of ale was finished.

With unsteady steps, Eran walked away. It had been months since he had tasted the sensation of ale from Alku, known for its strength and intoxicating power. The warmth and freshness of ale had long been absent from his tongue.

Eran crossed the hidden side behind the Camp, heading towards the village. When he arrived at the village, Eran stayed on the outskirts, trying not to be noticed. With hesitant steps, he passed through the outskirts of the village.
