＜Setting＞

■ "The Golden Star Inn"

Located in the labyrinth city of Heilberk, which attracts many adventurers from beginners to veterans.

It is situated roughly between the Adventurer's Guild and the commercial district.

The inn has four two-person rooms, four four-person rooms, and two large rooms that can accommodate about eight people.

Due to its awkward location and mediocre quality, it mostly attracts beginners who are short on money and those who are just a step away from being ruffians.

The first floor is the kitchen and dining room/bar, the second floor is the guest rooms. The family lives in the attic. There is also an underground storage room and a backyard. A communal well is nearby, and the neighbor is also an inn.

■ "Heilberk"

A city surrounded by sturdy city walls, consisting of a square, lord's mansion, residential area, commercial district, Adventurer's Guild, Merchant's Guild, and farmland outside the walls, with the Rhine River flowing nearby.

Outside the northern side of the city, particularly the sturdy city walls, lies the Labyrinth. Its multi-layered structure is ideal for adventurers of all levels, from beginners to veterans, attracting adventurers from all over and merchants who cater to them. The Labyrinth is a key feature and main industry of Heilberk.
