The thing about dried and preserved fish is that they are tasty when you eat them for the first time. It is fine to eat when you have nothing else to eat.

The whole city of Ravenshade was in shambles. Most of the houses and buildings were destroyed. There were a few big bonfires throughout the city, burning the bodies of unidentified people. The beast tide hit Ravenshade two days ago. But still, the process of excavation of dead bodies was still underway. It was a pretty dire situation.

Grump's aggression startled him, he knew that the old man was very strong, he had seen that man take down three centaurs in just a matter of minutes, that alone proved he was indeed very strong. So when a guy like that acted in such a way, he knew that he has to play it nice, otherwise he would be the next person on the receiving end of the old man's big ax. So he played nice. He started asking him questions about his inventory. He was very interested in his ability. He wanted to know what he had…

Dave was disgusted by the actions of the old man. Instead of getting out of there, the old man started rummaging through the corpses of the deceased soldiers and Martha. After he had pocketed their belonging, the old man then took his battle ax and the bow that he had thrown previously and then started moving. He didn't like the idea of pocketing things from the dead, still, he made peace with his situation for now. He was enraged, but he kept quiet. As much as he hates to admit it, his first priority…

"I don't know what you are talking about." Dave proclaimed rather loudly. He didn't know whether the old man truly knew that he was an Earthian or not, but he didn't plan to show the old man that he was panicking, after all, the old man might be bluffing, trying to get information out of him.
