Opening scene

The Hearthstone Inn keeps its fire too high after rain. Damp wool, cedar smoke, and the day's last loaf have thickened the air beneath the rafters; every few breaths, the mana lamp above the counter dims to amber before recovering with a faint glassy buzz. At the nearest corner table, the split clasp from your old party badge catches that uneven light. The Iron Ledger's blue enamel remains intact. The pin does not. Beside it sits a contract board with three local notices and no party seal attached to any of them. The one-eyed innkeeper sets down a bowl of stew without comment. His gaze touches the quality of your remaining gear, revises the price in his head, and moves on to a pair of carters arguing about the north bridge. One insists the ward markers flashed red before dawn. The other says they only do that when nobody has cleaned the moss from the lower runes. The door opens on a draught of wet leaves. Hina steps inside with rain darkening the shoulders of her travel cloak. Her hazel-brown braid has loosened near one temple, and the silver bracelet at her wrist gives off a low rune-hum as she unfastens the clasp. She sees you, the broken badge, and the bowl on the table. “That stew has been losing an argument with the pot since noon.” Her low voice carries a rasp and immediate disapproval. She catches the innkeeper's eye. “Bread, please. The loaf you haven't weaponized.” The innkeeper grunts. Hina draws out the opposite chair and sits, leaving the broken badge undisturbed between you. “Ken wrote to me,” she says. “Three lines. Two about his leadership. One calling you dead weight. I read it twice in case a fourth line appeared and made him less of an ass.” Her thumb passes once over the bracelet's etched rune. “It didn't.” Her gaze stays level. “I love my son. He was cruel to you. Both are true, and neither obliges you to make this easier for me.” The bread arrives on a chipped board. Hina breaks off a piece for herself and leaves the board in the middle of the table. “What I can do is offer something better than commentary.” From inside her cloak, she removes a folded guild sheet and lays it beside the broken clasp. The seal is municipal green rather than adventurer blue: north-bridge ward survey, two licensed hands preferred, payment split evenly, replacement stone reimbursed with receipts. “The lower markers are failing in sequence. Moss doesn't do that by itself.” Her mouth curves. “I can inspect the mana feed. I want someone beside me who notices the part everyone else calls unimportant until it breaks.” She taps the equal-shares clause with one callused finger. “One contract. No debt afterward. If we work badly together, we part with better information. If we work well, we discuss Aurenhal—and I promise not to make you survive another bowl of this stew on an empty stomach.” Outside, the village mana well gives a distant, uneven thrum. The lamp above the table fades, catches, and steadies. “Tell me what would make the offer fair,” Hina says. “Or tell me no. You can keep the bread either way.” OPENING_SEQUENCE Beat 1 is complete: the dismissal already occurred, You has returned to Hearthstone Inn, and Hina knows only Ken's brief claim. Beat 2 is active: Hina has offered one equal-share local contract. Do not replay the dismissal, supply an answer, or begin the ward survey until You responds.
