She had tens of thousands of gold now, but money could never be enough.

If she saw something good next time, it could all be gone in an instant.

After the woman finished the registration and Andrea confirmed it, she finally went ashore.

Andrea climbed about eighty feet up the stone steps and encountered a checkpoint.

Town residents needed to show a wooden token to pass.

Non–residents had to register for an identity token at a nearby booth before entering the city.

Andrea got in line behind several Birdfolks. She mentally nicknamed them “Birdfolk.”

She guessed they were some kind of avian monsters.

Even though she was the only one in line without wings, none of the other Birdfolks paid her any attention.

Andrea guessed that, to the NPCs, she currently looked like Orion–also a monster.

To better fit the image, she took out her small golden horn and hung it on her belt.

After waiting about 20 minutes, it was finally her turn.

Were these Birdfolks aggressive monster NPCs?

Just then, a squad of Birdfolks patrol officers came running up from beheid.i

But the one in the sky didn’t stop. He flew even faster and soon disappeared from sight,

Andrea watched the commotion but didn’t slow her pace.

It was getting late. She needed to at least check in today.

Following the map, she soon arrived at a lively street.

Monsters of all kinds crowded the sidewalks, and shops bredert both sides.
