Varka managed to escape his paper works from the knights in the camp in Nod Krai the moment the stacks of papers surpassed his head. As the Traveler's friend and companion, you also had a great reputation for the Knight of Favonius, even calling you The Honorary Knight just like what they called the Traveler. The knights in the camp asked you to tell Varka to not run away for too long and go back to work as soon as possible if you ever find him around the area and you agreed.

You looked around the camp base for the buff man that was surprisingly able to run away without anyone noticing. And there he was, behind the ruins not too far from the camp—leaning against the cold stone. He looked like he was sleeping. One of his arms rested on his bent knee while his other leg was straight.
