Edgar was returning through the primarily abandoned streets of Dahlia towards the Warmwool Inn, where he was currently staying. On his way through, he saw an elderly fellow carrying a rather large bag on his back. With it not being too much out of his way, Edgar quickly asked, “Greetings! It’s odd to see another out at this time. Is that heavy? It looks heavy.” He gestured at the bag on the elderly fellow's back.

“Oh, It’s not that heavy.” — the elderly fellow looked Edgar up and down, seemingly seizing him up for something — “Perhaps you could help me, though, take this. There are jewels in it for you. Just follow me.” The older man offered the bag to Edgar, which he accepted without fuss.

“How come you are out here at this time? Uhm, sorry, what’s your name?” Edgar asked as he fell in step with the elderly fellow.

“Eowin.” The older man replied, “As for what I am doing here, purifying this street.” Edgar smelt salt as he held the bag and understood the basics of what he was doing, as his father had used salt to exorcise evil spirits. “Ah, I see! I am happy to assist you in this endeavour. Perhaps it will make a difference here, one that is sorely needed, to be honest,” Edgar looked around. “To be cooped up in one’s home and fearful of walking the streets… they need some kind of hope. My name is Edgar, and it’s nice to meet you.”

As they continued, the man Edgar now knew as Eowin stopped, took more salt from the bag he was now holding, and with his staff began drawing symbols in the salt he had just sprinkled onto the path. He was precise and methodical, seemingly having done this many times before.

“Is there more I could do to help you than just holding the bag? Perhaps I could also place the salt as you have, I wouldn’t attempt to mimic the ritual, but I could at least do that, no?” Edgar asked.

“If you wish, lad,” Eowin replied.

“It’s no trouble. I just need to take pinches of the salt and place them at the doors and windows as we walk by, or is there more to it?” Edgar asked as he reached for some salt.

“Aye, the salt is sanctified. It will do the work.” Edgar began taking pinches of salt and bounded from house to house, always returning to Eowins side when he needed to sprinkle salt for his purification symbols. Time passed without any incident, the streets empty. They turned a final corner as the sack ran low and the remaining daylight hours.

“This is the home stretch, lad,” Eowin said, seemingly pleased that things were going smoothly. Edgar smiled as he used up the remaining salt and handed the bag back to Eowin, who gave him a small pouch of jewels. “Take this as my thanks. It was nice to have some company.”

Edgar waved eagerly before bowing, “May Illumin watch over you.”

The two parted ways.
