  As Thea takes notice of the fact our person is devoid Chromo, her thoughts begin to spiral, overthinking the possibilities.

  Thea: My examine spell.. It isn't enough to examine everything, but this? This isn't normal.

  "Can you explain what's going on here?"

  Thea: I..

  And without any other thought.

  Thea: Stay here..

  "Huh?"

  Thea: Stay here at the Inn... I really need to be somewhere else right now. But I Will get back to this.

  "..."

  "..Alright."

  With not another word said. She glanced one last time at our person, and took flight... Leaving a powerful gust of wind.

  "..."

  "What was that.... What was that about?"

  He returns back to the confines of the inn and takes a seat at the lunch hall.

  "I guess.. I'll be waiting for now.."

  Minutes pass, some Hours, even. People coming and leaving. Our person counting mere dust particles to quench his boredom.

  "1275... 1276... 1277..." And eventually...

  "Fuck it."

  He gets up from his chair, and walks right out.

  "After all that.. It's still daytime."

  He decides to talk a stroll around town. simply trying to kill time while waiting for Thea.

  Produce sellers calling out prices, merchant booths making bargains, and the clanking of metal coming from within deep equipment shops can be made out in the background.

  "I should probably.."

  He takes out the Gold coin from his pocket."

  "Look for some way to spend this.."

  He notices group of individuals gazing at what looks to be a wooden post board.

  "Well.. What seems to be going on over here?"
