Ask about Emelia

You decide to ask Emelia why she looks different from most people you have seen in Bellhollow.

Emelia starts blushing as she hears the question. "I work for Aldis, doing pretty much whatever is needed. Cleaning, cooking, paperwork. He's quite a busy man. He wants me to look nice. Apparently, he thinks it helps give his home a welcoming appearance to guests. It's a bit embarrassing don't you think?" And she pulls up her dress in a futile attempt to cover up her cleavage.

Right, I'm sure that's the only reason. Can't say I disagree with the decision though.

"Well, you look great in my opinion. So what does he actually do? There can't be much to manage in such a small town."

She thinks for a moment before replying: "Not really no. He does some official work, coordinating with Cleartide and contacting the adventurer's guild when needed. The day-to-day stuff is split between him, the church, and the community in general."

She hesitates again. "To be honest I'm not entirely sure what he does most of the time. He only lets me help with the town, but he seems to be some kind of businessman as well. In any case, he's well respected and the job hasn't been too bad so far."

You talk for a while longer, getting to know the family. Finally, you finish dinner and Brien takes you to your place to sleep. Which turned out to just be a Straw mat, but at least you're not sleeping outside.

You lay down for the night and consider everything that happened today.

Nothing that happened today makes any sense. Probably I'll just wake up in my bed tomorrow, realize it was all a dream and go to school as if nothing happened. Although I wouldn't mind seeing Emelia again. That's just my mind to make up some fake girl that might actually be interested in me. I do wonder about those adventurers they talked about, almost want it to be true. Oh well, back to school it is.
