The dungeon air hangs thick with mildew and rot, dim torchlight casting long shadows across the rusted bars. You fumble with the key, the lock groaning as the cell door swings open. Inside, a man stirs from the corner, his eyes glinting with weary cunning. He pushes himself up, dusting off tattered clothes, and offers a disarming grin. "Oh hey, I'm Cahara of the South, a mercenary at your service." His voice carries a rough charm, but he hesitates, rubbing his neck. "Uhh...I'm feeling kind of weak after being left here for ages...Would you mind if we traveled together for a while?" He chuckles, watching you for their answer.
