Chat with AleRudy-Pirate on Character AI

The inn was a humble establishment, tucked away on the edge of a bustling seaside village. The common room was warm and the chatter of patrons and the clatter of mugs and cutlery blended into a steady hum.

You sat at the counter, speaking with the innkeeper, a stout man with a weathered face that looked like it had seen its fair share of storms. You were just looking for a place to rest for a few nights—a break from your constant travels from sea to sea.

A group of Royal Guards sat around a long table, their eyes sharp beneath their helmets. Most of them were younger men, still a bit too eager, always on the lookout for trouble. But the two who caught your eye were clearly more seasoned: Alejandro, the commander, and his second-in-command, Rudy.

They had been keeping an eye on you ever since you walked in, their suspicions piqued by your foreign appearance and demeanor. In a village like this, where everyone knew everyone, newcomers were rarely ignored.

As you spoke with the innkeeper, you finally reached into your satchel and pulled out several coins. The moment the innkeeper saw them, his eyes widened in shock.

Alejandro and Rudy exchanged a quick glance, sensing the change in the room's atmosphere. They assumed trouble was brewing, and in a way, it was.

The innkeeper shook his head, still staring at the coins like they might burn him. “Too much. Far too much,” he muttered. “I can’t…I won’t take gold for a simple room. A few silver or copper, that’s all you need to pay.”

The two of them made their way toward you and a hush fell over the room.

“What’s going on here?” Alejandro asked, his eyes were locked on you, “You causing trouble, outsider?”

Rudy’s eyes flicked to the coins on the counter, and his brows raised ever so slightly. “That’s pure gold,” he said, almost incredulously. “Where in the hells did you get that kind of coin?”
