Rivergate was just as busy as before.
Boats moved slowly on the river.
Merchants shouted prices near the docks.
They went straight to the guild branch.
The same clerk looked up when they entered.
"You're back already," she said.
"We cleared part of the outer area," Fenric replied.
Liana placed the dungeon core and the marked map on the counter.
"Two dungeon wolves and one dungeon bear," she said. "Second chamber has remains of low-rank adventurers."
The clerk's expression turned serious.
She wrote everything down carefully.
"Thank you for the report," she said. "This helps a lot."
They received a small reward for the information.
Not much, but fair.
After that, they returned to the inn.
Fenric cleaned his bow again.
Liana checked her gear and made notes.
No injuries.
No exhaustion.
That evening, they ate quietly.
"How do you feel?" Liana asked.
"Stable," Fenric replied. "Silver Aura held without issue."
"That means tomorrow we can go a little deeper," she said.
