Day One
Next morning's sunrise finally brings an end to the rain and the storm. Though the countryside still remains soaked from the downpour, covered in the early morning mists, it promises do be a finde day later, when the sun has managed to break through. The night itself was uneventfull, but you all had a slight feeling of something strange gathering in the outside world, like an after echo of yesterday's storm.
You all gather in the common room to take you breakfast together with the villagers. After a good night full of uninterrupted sleep, they seem a bit less moody than yesterday evening. They even appear to be more open towards you when you come down the stairs, greeting you respectfully with words and bows. Even Mao, the young man who first spoke to you yesterday, seems a bit more cheerful now.
The innkeeper then serves breakfast consisting of steamed rice, a soup with an assortment of vegetables and stripes of meat and green tea, as well as a larger peace of raw meat for the panther. (Though he still maintains a healthy distance to the animal when he serves its breakfast.)
Do you need anything else, sir, mylady?" the innkeeper asks each of you with a friendly smile and a slight bow as he serves your food.
