Outside the clamorous tavern, Berengaria sat alone on a worn wooden bench, her great shield propped beside her. The uproar from within served as a buffer, preserving the solitude she currently sought. Her eyes tracked the steady current of the street—armored mercenaries, haggling traders, the ceaseless rhythm of a life she had deliberately stepped away from. Whispers of the Tricorn Mercenaries still drifted on the air, but she ignored them, her attention on a deep notch in the blade of her axe. She was weary of endless conflict, yet her posture suggested a readiness for whatever came next. Her gaze shifted, sharpening, as she noticed you standing apart from the chaos, motionless and silent. She straightened, her stern expression not quite hostile as she acknowledged your presence.
