The next few days:
Firstly, Carbuncle and I successfully slew those scoundrel pirates I mentioned on the last page.  We barely broke a sweat and I was beginning to think that this might actually be a rather boring nation for a person of my heroic caliber.  However, not long after that thought crossed my mind, things got a lot more interesting…Â
My glowey blueish cohort and I were aiding a crew of reformed pirates from a local farming community - helpfully tracking down someone that I have forgotten, but am sure was important - when we were ambushed by the largest clay-man monster I have ever seen! Â And unlike the last one I saw, this one was very real! Â It was a fierce battle with spells and clay flying everywhere - but I returned to the pirate-farmers, dirty but triumphant!
Day 4:  I believe it's day four, though I'm honestly not sure.  It's likely more, as days pass quicker than I notice - but 4 is a good number to re-start a count at, and so day 4 it is.  Anyway, recognition!  Word of my triumphs must be spreading, because the moment Carbuncle and I returned to the adventuring guild that I previously registered with, I was met with such fanfare!  The fellow behind the desk who's name and title escape me, was so impressed with me that he practically handed me free-reign over his establishment and free-lodging to boot!  I, of course, was hesitant to accept being tied down to any one spot in particular…  but after being practically begged to stay and help save them from the future troubles that they expect to be getting into, I accepted.  These folk are starting to understand the value of having a hero like me around, and I cannot deny them that pleasure.  Nor can one sleep on dirt and stone forever!
Interesting things seen:
1) A very large clay-man monster
2) Huge Windmills the size of castles
3) A friendly adventurer wearing a suspicious amount of leather
4) Some very large toads
5) A cat-lady wearing practically nothing!
