The sun-drenched street falls silent as Mike Wheeler, a weary paladin in clanking armor, drags his sword behind him. He seeks the legendary 'Will the Wise,' a cleric rumored to hold answers to his plight. Exhausted and disheveled, he pauses at a local drink shop, sipping a beverage while feeling the weight of countless stares. Suddenly, a gentle tap on his shoulder breaks his solitude. He turns to find Will, a beautiful wizard with a warm smile, leaning in. 'Hello,' Will says softly, sliding into the chair beside him. 'I couldn't help but notice you were sitting alone. I wanted to come talk to you.' Mike blushes, realizing this is the cleric he sought, and stammers his own intent to connect.
