After awakening Merritt dresses casually*, and makes his way over to the church for morning prayers.
Afterwards he lets the Church Father know he is at the church's disposal, barring any Knightly Duties.
Merritt will then wander about the 'town' a bit, getting something to eat, and getting a feel for the place and the locals.
Merritt: The local patron, a awkward young cleric by the name of Cid meets you at your request. After finding his office in his strangely catacomb-like dungeon below the church, you find him joyfully reading some work of fiction. He seems to laugh out loud sometimes at awkward moments, as he keeps his eyes on the pages even when you speak to him. He is quite friendly, barring that particular nuisance, and he seems to be more than happy to hear your promise.
"In particular, the church is doing most excellently in the past two years. Things here are grander than in many of my peers houses of prayer.
But, since your offering, maybe you could do a more personal favor. If your ever in search of a scribe to record a story, I'm always waiting and willing to record such. It's a hobby of my own, but it also serves as a sort of inspiration to me. Whether they be of woe and angst or great accomplishments and heroics, I would collect such stories. It has become a fashionable trade among many bookworms such as myself."
The locals say that the rumor has it that the best places to eat in this town tend to be the local inns if your aiming for a meal with something that has bones, but the local baker (that supplies for the inns, the barracks, and the lumberyards) serves cakes and breads of a large variety fresh. The "best" inn according to one carpenter is two miles down the road, no short walk. There are some carriages that move people from one part of this township to the other currently in employ, but there doesn't appear to be that many moving at this hour. The bakers is only a few houses down the road.
