The next morning, Colin washed up, bought a wrap, and headed toward the Black Tower, eating as he went.
He stopped by a random Caster supply shop and bought some distilled spirits.
Since the bear gallbladder could only be used as a folk remedy, Colin wondered if he could infuse it in alcohol. 'In a way, that would count as a kind of "folk remedy" too,' he thought.
After finishing his shopping, he asked a few passersby for directions and quickly found the Overseas Coffee Shop Morel had mentioned.
The little shop was tucked away in a corner on one of the streets surrounding the Black Tower. The storefront looked small and old. Only ten people could sit at the bar, and behind it stood two baristas.
Judging by their complexions, they must have come from somewhere far to the south.
"A cup of coffee."
"One Silver Coin, respected sir."
Colin sat at the bar and handed the coin to the barista.
