The day began early for the people of Goldenveil.
Even without a priest, since the settlement's only priest had died in a goblin attack a few months earlier, they always rose before dawn and began their prayers.
Faith in the Nine was very strong in Goldenveil.
Especially now, as the gods were seen as the ones who had blessed them with their new Lord.
Even without a priest to guide them, they remained completely faithful to the gods.
After their daily prayers, they made breakfast and went to work.
A simple, peaceful routine, but today, they were met with a different sight.
Their lord, fully clad in armor and with a sword at his waist.
"My lord… I truly think you shouldn't go hunting alone with that woman! Allow me to accompany you," Alaric exclaimed, stepping in front of Ethan and Evelyn.
"The renovations at the barracks have already begun. You must inspect the construction," Ethan said.
