Su Chen poked his head out. "We should still rest for a night. This leg of mine needs to be looked at."

So, they went to find an inn first.
They found an unremarkable inn where a spot in the common room, without bedding, cost only ten copper coins per person. You had to draw your own water from the well.
Everyone felt like they had gotten an incredible deal. They joyfully paid their copper coins and unloaded the mules.
Su Chen had originally planned to find a better inn, but in the end, he decided to stay with the group. He did, however, request a superior room.
