You remember now.
You had put yourself on board a ship heading towards the capital of the Caldis region, Caldisla. Yes, it was a silly name, but it was also known as the
Land of Beginnings, having been the starting place of many heroes and celebrities in the past, advertising it as a place for people to start anew.
For a mercenary like you, it's a great place for a job.
The ship had, unfortunately, taken you and its passengers to the west side of Caldis, stopping at a smaller port village known as Belta. You had decided to rest there for the day at the local inn, resolving to venture towards Caldisla the next morning.
The following night, however, is when the rumbling started.
It woke you up with a start, making you question what was happening, but before you could get out of your bed a giant crash rang out outside the building.
Which was then followed by the explosion.
Half of the inn burst into flames, smoke filling the remaining space as screams from the villagers as they suffered in pain reverberated throughout the burning town. Through luck alone you managed to escape the building, but not without injuries and smoke inhalation.
Once outside you began walking weakly towards the exit of the town, vision blurring and dizziness growing. But it was too much, and you collapsed.
But not without seeing a
girl aghast at the scene before her and the
fairy at her side.
"...ning."
"...ood morning."
You opened your eyes to an
old man waking you up, you yourself in a bed within a room with walls of light brown. An inn, perhaps?
"You've finally woken up. It's been almost two days. I'm Karl, the innkeeper of this place," he says.
"I'm Chris," You ask. "Where… Where am I?"
"You're in Caldisla. Once the King had heard that a fire had broken out at Belta, he sent his soldiers out as a rescue team. When they were there, they found you," Karl says.
"Well, send my thanks to the King, and to you too," you saying, getting out of the bed.
"No, no, no, I'm only doing what I should do. If anything send your thanks to that girl, the brown-haired one with the fairy. She helped out the King's men with getting the survivors out, even the one that got you here. The girl's run off now, to who knows where, but make sure to thank her for her service."
"Will do," you saying, heading down the stairs and almost out the door.
"Also, Chris," you hear Karl yell down from the second floor, "Do me a favor, if you see a chestnut-haired boy with a white shirt named Tiz, tell him Karl sends his condolences."
"I will! Thank you!" You yell back, taking a step into Caldisla.
Ah… Now what do you do?
You saw
a lady head into a cafe with
a man wearing blue, and a
blond woman next to a
older, gray-haired man wearing all black and wielding a staff standing outside of one of the shops. You could always talk to them.
On the other hand, you were here for a reason. You wanted to get some jo-
...!
In the distance you saw a
boy who fit the description the innkeeper gave you very well, but he was leaving town.
