Greenhouse
The way back to my lodging was somewhat complicated. I went through half the city and I had to try to recognize several areas where I had passed and slowly I arrived at the place I was looking for. I went there quite quietly, I did not want anyone to notice that I was lost, nor that I was not from this city. I just entered the lodging as if nothing had happened, although I knew that when this kind of incidents happened it was normal that they started to search the cities looking for spies. And since this was a place that usually had foreign people, it was obvious that they would come here at any moment. I just went to my room and put on my dungarees to look more like an adventurer or hero so that no one would start suspecting me. I had enough problems and I just wanted to rest a little bit from that exhausting trip.When I entered my room I lay down on the bed almost a few minutes later, my eyes began to close and I began to sleep ignoring what happened for now. I only thought about

Cell
I left the place very annoyed, I didn't want to do anything today, but I had already asked for a mission. I just hoped it wouldn't be so difficult and I wouldn't have to do so many things. One of them was to fight against dangerous people. As experienced as I was in combat. Some individuals had strange abilities and with the attack on that castle anything could happen to me.I headed to my lodging for my armor, I was not going to let anyone hurt me, for a mission like this and while I was heading to that place. I noticed that the soldiers were detaining dozens of common people. This situation would completely hinder the whole mission. I had to be careful with all those people.Every minute the sky was getting darker and darker, luckily there were not many clouds and the weather would be quite pleasant.[...]I went back to my lodging to get my armor. This time I could only wear my breastplate, my helmet and my sword. It was not a very difficult mission, but I had to be protected from

Picks
I was prepared for anything, the guild had sent an announcement of this mission so that someone would guard the place. Although they did not delay a bit and downplayed the importance of what happened. If they had been more attentive this would have been avoided.I decided to unsheathe my sword to fight, since I had no other alternative and waited for the creature to come out or the dangerous human to come out, the cells were apparently being destroyed and the prisoners were coming out of that place like ants, some were very wounded and confused, as if a vest had attacked them, besides there was a foul smell coming from the dungeon. The soldiers of the kingdom came to help and looked somewhat confused. They didn't know what was going on, but minutes later we could see what it was.Apparently it was some kind of hybrid between humans and a monster. Perhaps he had experimented on his own body for fear of being executed. No one tried to attack it, everyone was bewildered by such a creat

Nebel
Suddenly that man came out of the room and began to talk to me.-You know your mission was to guard that place.-Yes, but the guards had a very rude attitude towards me. It was impossible for me to talk to them. From one moment to the next, people started shouting. There I could do nothing. I could only watch everything that was going on.That man was very upset, but he gave in a little and tried to explain to me what happened.-I didn't blame you, but you should have been more attentive. One of the suspects of the attack against this kingdom escaped. There were many dead and wounded, well... we didn't think there was anyone else helping him either. Anyway you won't receive the reward, since you couldn't do more things right, however there is another mission in the mountains of Nebel, this is up there. You just have to bring an object from there.It seemed easy to me, to do a mission, like that, but from the way that person spoke. There was something more complicated.-Is something wr

Box
The old man took me to a somewhat clear place. There was nothing to break or to keep us from fighting, just more beams supporting the roof.When we got to the center he began to speak.-Here I have my sword. Let's see, show me that you are not a useless fool, otherwise, the best thing to do is to leave.He looked very sure of what he was telling me. I unsheathed my sword and showed it to him. He looked a bit indifferent, he didn't care to see my sword. He didn't give me time to react, he just started making dozens of movements clashing our weapons. Until he finally stopped when he saw that the one he had started to crack a little.-It's unbelievable.... you damaged my sword. Apparently yours is quite strange. I see why you were talking so much. You have no speed, no reaction, but your sword is resistant.I decided to clarify everything to the man. I didn't want him to become obsessed with it.-I found it in a dungeon.-I see, it can be better, but you have to try harder, at least you

Return to the city
I went to the guild, it was a strange place. At that time people were slowly leaving their homes to do their work, and it was a little worrying, you could still feel the fear of what had happened days ago, with the attack that the castle suffered. It was still as burned. I did not know if they had to paint it or to build it again, but they had to be more careful next time with the people they let into that place.I saw many soldiers walking near me, maybe they started to follow me, since I was carrying a big wooden box, it was evident that I was very uncomfortable with that. One of them simply approached me and stopped me.-What are you carrying there?They were wearing those metallic armors, which didn't stand out at all, maybe they were angry at me for wearing something better. I decided to answer him in a proper way so as not to get into trouble.-This is just a guild mission.-Guild mission?-It's strange, no, the best thing to do is to show us what you have there.At their insis

Ohis
My return to Altamira was quite a journey. I had to go through many cities and face different climates and it took me more than a week because I had gone to a city that was too far south.I only stayed in lodgings a few times, and others in the middle of the night. The other carriages gradually took their own course until the carriage I was in was left alone.The road was difficult, the horses were already somewhat battered by the whole journey, despite resting a few days in lodgings in different small towns.In Altamira everything had changed, the snow had completely evaporated. The streets looked normal as if it had never been winter. People changed their clothes and began to dress more comfortably. It was no longer necessary to wear coats and hats.I didn't stare at the place, I preferred to go to the guild and ask about my current state, but I noticed that there were many changes in this place. This was already a bar, there were many people drinking at that hour with wooden glass

Information
I spent several days asking about what had happened. I was not convinced by what I had heard from the guild receptionist and the manager of one of the lodgings, but like them, most people also told me the same thing. Most people also told me the same thing. I was quite annoyed and decided to go to Ohis two days earlier to receive the information. I was a bit anxious about what would happen in that city. I just tried to calm down a bit, as I was a bit disoriented. The guild leader was the person who gave me recommendations and his point of view of what I was doing. Without him I knew nothing. So I concluded to go to the guild before I left and ask for Alfred. Maybe he was on a mission or in the country that took him in. It was the most sensible thing I could think of.While I was thinking I tried to arrange my room. I had bought other objects that will help me to be better in the fight. There were potions to avoid feeling so much pain with a wound and some hand bandages. I couldn't t

Sug
The trip to Ohis was quite fast, the city was at the east of the continent, but it was something I was really surprised when I arrived there. It was a place full of golden statues and stones. There were some temples. There were no walls like in the other big cities to protect themselves from invaders.From the place where the chariot dropped me off I could see it. I was a little embarrassed to go there. Everything looked so tidy and so clean that I felt out of place. However, I had to walk there because the carriage that took me there left me far away. Since this was not its destination. At least it left me close by and didn't take so long to get there. Unfortunately this was the descent of a hill. So I had to descend as if it was nothing. It was very difficult as this was a steep mountain and it was too hard to go down. I tried to walk as fast as possible, but the terrain was totally full of rocks and sand.Going down was really difficult, and on top of that the weather was very hot

Eccentric
After listening to that man I wanted to leave that place, they were all quite affected. There was a lot of work for tomorrow's event and the war between two neighboring countries ended up complicating everything.I decided to leave the place and headed for the exit, but I saw a familiar person. When I saw him I knew at once who he was. The same man had a scar on his face, his hair was half-long and he had a black beard. His gaze was somewhat cold and sinister, his face was elongated. He was missing a finger on his left arm. He came with his same group of friends. I remembered them all, they even had new members. Since I was wearing the armor, they had no idea who I was, so I just walked by them like it was nothing, but deep down I wanted to fight them all. However, with the current situation and with my level, there wasn't much I could do against those people, so I didn't even look at them. I just walked out of the place like it was nothing, but the people working there were a bit
