"That won't be necessary Elder Elaine. But I've come for something very important actually. We've recently received reports of how your village had experienced a recent monster tide attack."
"Yes, that is correct."
"I believe the village was able to handle the pressure from the monsters with the help of a few awakened individuals residing here, if I'm not mistaken."
"You are right yet again, sister Clara."
"Oh, excellent. Such great news. Hero Aldric is always seeking brave souls to join the kingdom's defense and he would be more than happy to have these few individuals in his party. May I have a look at them, please?" Clara asked but didn't wait to hear Elaine's response before scanning the crowd in front of her.
She searched across the crowd until her gaze landed on a pair of eyes staring right back at her.
"You there. Step forward please." Clara beckoned for the young man to come closer.
Ray stepped forward as the crowd parted for him to walk through .
