Gord and Rothütle arrive in Kirchzarten as dusk falls, the sky painted in deep oranges and purples. They find a cozy tavern and settle in for dinner.
Inside, there is a warm atmosphere with laughter and the clinking of metal cups. Rothütle finally exhales, relieved to be off the road for a while. They sit on the cornermost table and dine in relative silence, each lost in their thoughts.
"We should stay here for the night," Gord suggests. "We will head out early tomorrow."
They rent a small room upstairs and go to bed early. After Rothütle falls asleep, Gord leaves the room quietly and patrols outside.
A few hours later, the wooden floor creaks softly as Rothütle comes out of the room. "You should rest," he whispers. "It's my turn to keep watch."
Gord is not convinced. Rothütle says, "I'm good at talking my way out of trouble. And I bet you're a light sleeper."
