Ash has no idea where he is or how he got here. He knows not to expect things to be simple when it was the Hero of Falconreach asking for help but still. This was... this was a little much. In which Ash helps out with an Inn challenge and things go about as well as can be expected.
As the Hero of Falconreach, Riese is no stranger to unusual, dangerous situations. Suddenly finding herself in a different year altogether, however, is... unusual, even for her. Finding herself in front of one of her most personally despised enemies at the head of an army on top of that? Dangerous, even for her. In which there are branches, bugs, and buds beginning to bloom.
The Hero has no reason to go to Big Daddy so she doesn't. In which the Hero takes a day off and Ash learns just a little more about her.
The memories fade, but the guilt remains. Performing the unspeakable leaves its mark. In the wake of another completed challenge, a Dragonlord suffers yet more nightmares. In which a dragon is there for his human.
