《In-game Item Storekeeper》Chapter 60 - Will you accompany me? (Diablo III)
Advertisement
After gaining entrance into New Tristram, Shang parts ways with Cala and his family members by saying he is going to take a look around.
As Shang watches the commotion between three heroes and Mayor Holus, he walks to Slaughtered Calf Inn where Leah lives.
Shang enters the inn and sees something different. Instead of just five stretchers which is shown in the game, Shang is seeing one walkway that leads to the inn counter. On each side of the walkway, there are more than ten stretchers with injured people whose expressions look the same as Cala when infected.
Shang’s thoughts: Totally different from what I thought. This is a freaking war zone. I guess this is the reason how Bron The Barkeep managed to get so many local support to run for the mayor position.
Shang looks around and sees medieval women with white aprons walking, helping the ones lying on the stretchers. A bald muscular man with a scar across his right eye is holding down one of the patients so that the woman-in-charge could feed him.
While looking around, a brown short haired woman in red who is in her twenties, wearing a similar white apron, approaches Shang.
????: Yes, What can I help you?
In front of Shang is Leah whose grandparents are King Leoric and Queen Asylla and parents are Adria and Aidan.
Shang’s thoughts: The host of Diablo…
Leah: Sir? Are you alright?
Shang: Sorry, I was deep in my thoughts. I hear help is needed here, so I came.
Leah: We do need help. Are you not afraid of the infected? People don’t dare to come near this place.
Shang: Ha, don’t look down me.
Shang rolls up the sleeves of his medieval clothes and looks towards the stretchers.
Shang's thoughts: This should be easy...

While Shang is helping Leah with the patients, the three heroes deal with Mayor Holus by pushing his cart to the side of the road. They are later requested by Captain Rumford to deal with the attacking Wretched Mothers and the Wretched Queen in Old Tristram. Without the game mechanics and special equipment, it took them several days to take them down and by the time they return, it is evening again.
Following the suggestion of Captain Rumford, they enter Slaughtered Calf Inn where they are greeted by Leah.
There are no longer any stretchers or patients in the inn. Tables and chairs which are placed against the wall for space have been moved back to their original positions, giving out the usual inn atmosphere.
Leah: The Cathedral you say? I don’t mind unlocking the gates but I have some requests.
Bearded Man: What are your requests?
Leah: I want you to help me look for Uncle Deckard and also, I would like to bring a friend along.
Before the bearded man can continue, the muscular woman cuts in.
Muscular Woman: We don’t mind if you want to bring a friend along but our business is to only protect you till you open the gates. Any other than that, It’s none of our problems if anything happen to your friend.
The bearded man frowned at the muscular woman’s reply.
Leah: But do I need so many people to protect me?
Leah questions.
Muscular Woman: Girl, you listen here...
To prevent any further conflicts, the woman in armor speaks.
Armored Woman: I think that’s enough. If your friend needs protection, I will be your friend’s shield. Does that fit your requirements? Miss Leah.
Leah: Thank you so much. Give me a moment please. I have to wake him up.
Leah runs off to the second floor of the inn and knocks on the door of the room where Shang is staying.

The doors open and a face with two panda eyes appears before Leah.
Leah: My, what happen to you?
Leah is shocked to see such a face on Shang.
Shang: Blame it on Haedrig and Mira. They were loud last night. Now I regret accepting Bron’s free lodgings. You didn’t hear anything?
Leah: What noise? I didn’t hear anything.
Leah blushes as she says.
Leah knows what Haedrig and Mira are doing as she also hears them from the second floor., she simply covers herself fully with her blanket and sleeps through it
Shang: I guess I should really look for a shack to live.
Leah: I can help with that but you have to help me with this first.
Shang: What is it?
Leah: I was requested to unlock the gates leading to the cathedral. Along the way, I planned to visit my mother’s cabin. Will you accompany me?
