"Where did you say he was found?" Alaric asked as he walked alongside Richard, exiting the royal building. Richard had just briefed him on the situation, and now they were heading out to address it. In Wyfn-Garde, you couldn't just be a prince; everyone had responsibilities, including the royal family, and that often meant handling disputes or threats directly.
"At Wyfshade Inn," Richard replied. "He had two missing fingers and kept spouting nonsense. He could have seen the killer."
Wyfshade Inn was a secluded place for travelers, tucked at the edge of Wyfwood Forest. The forest itself served as a boundary between Wyfellon, the capital where the castle stood, and Wyfmoor, the Village of Shadows. It fell under Alaric's jurisdiction. This inn has been reported to have dumped dead bodies by the door and the closest households.
