Elora was watching the intense battle between humans and the beast from the balcony when a knock sounded at the door.
Thorn, who was engrossed in checking how many seeds he had with him, paused at the sound.
He placed the pouch of seeds back into his ring, rose to his feet, and headed for the door.
When he opened it, his gaze fell on the inn's manager, whose eyes lit up as soon as she saw him.
"Sir, thank goodness you opened the door! We need to evacuate to the inner city before the battle affects the outer city, where we're currently staying." The woman spoke in one breath, her voice trembling with fear and urgency.
She wished she could rush through the warp gate immediately, but she had to evacuate the customers staying at her inn first.
"We're staying here. There's no need to worry about us. Take the others away," Thorn replied lightly.
He was about to close the door when the woman stretched out her hands to stop him.
