The Sun ever so slowly setting, We find Thea making it back to the inn after a long day of running errands.
She gracefully, lands from the distant sky, right in front of the inns entrance.
Thea: ...Adventurers really are exasperating nowadays..
She sighed deeply.
Thea: Although I need still need to check up on this guy..
Following into the inn she looks around.. No ones around, except the innkeeper.
Thea: It's emptier here than usual.
She trails tower the corridor, looking for our persons room.
Thea: Room 14..
Thea: Or was it 13? Or 12..
Thea: Forget it. I'll just know it when I see it.
She looks around for our persons room, her eyes, dancing in the search...
...And finding it, not long after.
Thea: This here... Room 14.
She knocks.
*Knock* *Knock*
Thea: Hey uh, It's me, Thea. You in there?
...
Greeted by no response, she starts worrying.
Thea: W-wait, what if something happened to him? I hope he didn't injure his leg again..
Thea places her hand on the door, and proceeds to open it.
Thea: It's not even locked..
Inviting herself right in. The wood on the floor.. creaking.
Thea: ...No.. He's.. Not even here! Damn it! I told him to stay here in the inn!
She rushed back to the lunch hall, filled with mild despair. Attempting to ask the innkeeper where he was.
Thea: Hey, have you seen my... little companion by any chance?
Innkeeper: Oh hey there, you we're the one checking in for 3 days.. Yes?
Thea: Yes! Now have you seen him?
Innkeeper: If i recall.. He was indeed here at the lunch hall earlier.. For some hours actually, Then he just walked right out.
A low growl, escaped her snout.

Innkeeper: Are you.. Okay, perhaps?
Thea: I sure am! And I will be taking my leave now.
She obviously wasn't okay, rather furious. All our person needed to do was stay at the inn.
Outside, she swiftly unraveled her wings and took flight. Trying to scan the area for him.
Thea: Come on.. Tell me he's still here.. What do i do.. What do i do..
A small thought, had occurred.
Thea: Yes! I could ask the guards! They would have definitely seen him walking around earlier.
A heavy landing hits the gate entrance.
Leather guard: Huh?
Thea: You. Have you seen him?
Tall guard: Excuse me.. Does there seem to be a problem here?
Thea: I was just looking for someone.. Maybe you've seen him?
Tall guard: Oh! The person with the leg injury
Thea: If you would call him that, yes.
Tall guard: He did say he was going to a dungeon after all.
Thea: WHAT! WHY DIDNT YOU STOP HIM? HIS LEG STILL HASNT EVEN FULLY RECOVERED YET!
Tall guard: Oh.. I didn't know that.. sorry.
Leather guard: Heh.
Thea: where was he even heading?!
The tall guard pointed his hand toward the Northeast.
Tall guard: I believe he went that way.
Thea: Okay. Thank you.
Quickly jumping in the air, she zoomed into the direction our person was going.
Leather guard: Why'd you help that thing?
Tall guard: I.. I just thought it was the right thing to do. That persons leg wasn't even in the best condition to being with.
Leather guard: Whatever.. I'll be switching posts. Stay here if you want...
With our person nearing the dungeon, and Thea following behind.. Only time would tell how this would turn out...
