I  moved silently through the swamp, searching for the creature. Drawing my sword when I heard something thrashing in the water. I see the kikimore jabbing at the water and I realize it's trying to kill something or someone. I move swiftly and start chopping the tentacles off . It roars in pain , turning to the new threat. I notice it loosening it grip on the animal / person . I smile . " come on you beast , why don't you pick on someone else!" He scuttles towards me in anger. I swing my sword , taking the kikimore by surprise as I stab it through its eye ,Killing it instantly.

I look to my left to see a drenched man move through the swamp.  White hair and Golden eyes . I know this Witcher.  I haven't seen him in almost 20 years. I quickly pull my hood up , and turn away,making my way back to my horse Damon. I quickly mount spurring Damon into a gallop.
I reach the village , dismounting and handing my reins to a stable hand.

Grabbing my bag  " Make sure he's well feed and rubbed down." I hand him some coin, turning towards the inn. I open the door , moving towards the bar. The bar man looks at me  in puzzlement. " What'll it be sir?" I don't correct him.

" the house special, a room , a bath drawn and some ale."

He nods his head and says " fifteen coin. Do you want your clothes washed as well? . "

I nod my head " yes I'll take my food and ale then I'd like to go to my room."

He hands me my room key. " Room 3 . I'll have the bath drawn and brought to your room. It'll be waiting for you when you finish your supper."

I nod my head in thanks then turn to  find a table in the corner facing the door. I sit down and wait for my food. A small loaf of bread and a huge bowel of stew is placed in front of me , along with a pint of ale. 

" is there anything else I can get you?" Asks the young bar maid. I look up and see kind eyes.

I sigh and ask" when my bath is drawn , could you please place some lavender in the bath water please? "

she furrows her eyebrows in confusion " of course sir but may I ask why a man would.... " I pull my hood back slightly to show my face .

She gasps "  I hope it won't be too much trouble. "

she chuckles " not at all I've got some rose oil I can put in as well."  I smile at her in thanks.

I put my hood back up and dig into my meal. 
I'm nearly finished with my meal , when the door bangs open.

I look up to see Him come striding in broodingly . I sigh in agitation and quickly get up and move towards the stars. Hoping he won't notice me. " I'm looking for the alderman's house . "

the bar maid gives him directions as I move quickly up the stairs. I find my room , and move in to find a tub with steaming water with the scent of lavender and rose oil in the air.

A towel and some soap sitting near . I unclasp my cloak, shaking my long red curls out, placing it along the back of the chair . I pull out a new tunic and long pants out of my bag and place them beside my armor.
