2025-02-26 00:24:25 +0000 UTC View PostOver the next several days, Jamie and Jay awaited the arrival of someone from the City Guard, expecting the necessary documents to be delivered at any moment. However, things did not proceed as the captain had promised. An entire week passed before a soldier finally appeared at the Broken Eagle Tavern, seeking the bard.
"Error. Gangmaker System Unlocked."
Jamie stared at the sudden message that flickered before his eyes, golden letters hovering in the air for only a moment before fading away. Though surprise coursed through him, he kept his expression neutral, not allowing even a flicker to betray his thoughts. Beside him, Jay floated ...
