Crossing a bridge to get into the western area of the Chalst Province, going through a twisting passageway in a cave and contending with monsters and cyborgs, Prince Sean, Mieu, Wren and Lyle made it into the Salvadayna Province, so that they could get their first lead on the whereabouts of Laya's Treasure. All they knew was that it was hidden somewhere in the Bernink Province, except that they didn't know where in the Bernink Province the treasure actually was.

"Come on! You're taking a week!" Sean said to Mieu and Wren as they slowly pulled themselves out of the cave. All the party were now in the Salvadayna Province, where there were vast expanses of grass and distant mountains.

"First thing. We should try to find a town or a village. The local people may know something about Laya's Treasure." Mieu said to the party, but Sean shook his head.

"I'm leading this group, so you shouldn't be giving orders here, you silly cyborg!" Sean snapped.

"I was only suggesting something, Prince Sean. Just in case you didn't have any ideas." Mieu replied. Sean sighed and said that he'd let her off, and so they decided to look for a town or a village, because Sean didn't have a course of action planned.

After a good twenty minute walk, the party finally came across a large town situated between two large rock formations. The rock formations themselves were too high and too smooth for the party to climb, so they had no other option but to go through the town. They went through the town gate, and someone was waiting nearby.

"Welcome to North Divisia, travellers!" the waiting person said to them. Mieu thanked him for the welcome and asked about Laya's Treasure.

"What? Laya's Treasure? Not a clue. But, if you go through this town and into Castle Divisia, some of the King's subjects might know something." the man replied. The party thanked him and went on their way towards Castle Divisia. However, it was getting late. The sky was beginning to darken.

"It's getting late. We should rest up." Wren suggested, looking at the darkening sky.

"Gee, Wren, you're right! I'm really tired. Well, it's up to Sean, because he's the leader of the gang." Lyle sighed, frantically rubbing his eyes. Mieu said that she was exhausted, and the rest of the party exaggerated their tiredness in the hopes that Sean would go into the inn so that they could stay the night.

"You're all tired? To be honest, I'm tired myself. Come on, let's stop for the night." Sean said, leading the party to the inn. As they went inside, Lyle, Wren and Mieu collapsed on the little rug on the floor.

"Good day, can I help you?" the innkeeper asked politely as Sean strode up to the desk.

"You can let me and my three friends stay here the night." Sean replied, not so politely. The innkeeper took off her glasses and cleaned the lenses. She replaced them and looked closely at Sean. The prince shuffled slightly.

"We only have one room with two beds left. I'm sorry." the innkeeper said sadly. Sean's hand closed around the sword in his belt.

"You will be sorry! Now, do you have a room with four beds?" Sean retorted, the hand that was closed around his sword trembling with eagerness.

"I'll have a look for you." the innkeeper sighed, leaving her desk. Sean watched her go out the room.

Ten minutes later, she came back with a key and two unhappy customers.

"Wait a minute, why should we give up OUR room for some stroppy teenager?" one of the customers snapped. The innkeeper calmly explained that they only had two in their group, and Sean had three others.

"Yeah, I mean... look at him! He's a rude, inconsiderate little brat!" the other customer shouted. Sean was furious! He drew his sword and bared it at the two customers.

"Shut up! I strongly recommend you don't say another word, or else I'll slice you!" Sean roared, thrusting the sword forward as he spoke. The innkeeper told the prince to put the sword away, so he did. She then told the other two customers that they would be staying in the room with two beds. They scowled and slouched off.

"Right, here's the key. I'm sorry it took so much trouble." the innkeeper sighed, handing Sean a large silvery key. The prince took it off her.

"Not a problem at all." Sean replied with an unusual kindness to his tone. He then lead the party up to the room. As they were so tired, they collapsed onto their beds and slept... or was someone still awake?
