Thanks. At least our bandit problem stopped, thanks to the last travelers...

[And with that, Kazuki has to leave. See you later, Arthur.

From there, Arthur can inquiry the cleric!

Cleric, Temenos

A cleric who serves the Order, currently stationed in the village. He spreads the church's teachings and educates the villagers, while also keeping an ear out for any gossip. His skills have allowed him to obtain hidden nuggets of information, such as the news that the crown prince of Riven hasn't been seen in court for a long time now. Many people who aren't so fond of King Riven's recent policies bemoan this fact, feeling that the prince was one of the last things keeping him in check.

The woman has left so Arthur can no longer inquiry her, but the inquiry to Temenos will throw in a free benefit of learning that the woman's name is Elizabeth, and no one's quite sure what to make of her. Of course, not that a cleric should be gossiping more than that...

At this point, Opal exits the apothecaries' place.]

Hello. Feeling better?

Well, I guess I owe you some thanks, Arthur.

[Opal's tone is dry.]

You willing to pay the apothecaries for me? [A pause, and then, regardless of Arthur's answer:] Just kidding. I'm not that stingy. I already paid.

[But the day is getting late, and, well. No reason not to be stuck together for now, as fellow defectors, who are staying at the same inn in this small village at any rate. Opal and Arthur can share a meal over at the tavern first, where they can chat for a bit—however awkwardly—before heading to the inn for the night. Today was certainly eventful, so who's to say what tomorrow will bring?

With that in mind, Arthur wakes up.]
