Bab 116: Surock Village

It was the night of the second day when they finally arrived at Surock Village. It was still early enough that people were bustling about, and many shops remained open. To Cassian's surprise, this wasn't the small, quiet village he had imagined with only a few houses and maybe one restaurant—it was far larger, lively, and well-kept.

There were plenty of people moving through the streets, and several shops had customers coming and going. Cassian had expected a more subdued atmosphere, but instead, the village was vibrant, with fires lit along the main paths and even some streets illuminated by mana stone lamps.

"I thought this was just a small village?" Cassian said, looking out at the bustling scene outside. There were even carriages coming and going, though he distinctly remembered Daniel mentioning he was the only one traveling to the village.
