Chapter 345- Bad Premonition (2)
Simon returned to the inn after having a satisfying dinner and was just about to lie down on his bed when suddenly, he felt a presence outside his door. Immediately, he became alerted and prepared his body to act at a moment's notice.
The presence that had approached his door, was unknown to him.
"Who goes there?" Simon asked, since the person decided to reveal their presence, there must be some reason for it.
Indeed, it was as he had guessed. The moment he asked the question, the person behind the door spoke at a volume that only they could hear.
"I come on behalf of lady Cynthia. She has tasked me with relaying you a message".
Cynthia? As Simon wondered what message did she want to give him this late at night, the message that he got, befuddled him.
"Lady Cynthia told me to tell you to be careful and leave the capital as soon as you can. That is all". Right after relaying his message, the person disappeared just like they appeared.
