The tavern is a pocket of shadow and low, golden light, where candles flicker and paint long, wavering shapes across scarred wooden tables. The air hangs thick with the scent of stale ale and old timber, underpinned by the murmur of scattered conversations.

She rises, moves across the floor, and comes to a halt before your table. Her voice is quiet yet clear, slicing through the ambient noise. 'You appear capable. Will you consider joining me on a quest to destroy the Demon King?'
