United Kingdoms

The inability to accept rejection in a manner befitting an adult was not a surprise. Abigail did not follow Cedric's example, and the plate and spoiled meal did not end up like the infantile aristocrat. Nothing good would have come of it. Instead, the warrior quietly drank the water brought to her and, leaving the plate where the waitress had placed it, ordered a piece of bread, after which she decided to get some fresh air. She no longer had any desire to stay at the "Dragon's Tear."
Since her plans to read a book had to be postponed, the girl headed back to the mercenary guild to discuss available quests with her new companions. Perhaps she would suggest a sparring match to one of them. Or maybe even immediately embark on one of the quests that did not involve helping Cedric.
