[Zel may catch the innkeeper going “...Isn’t this currency from-” before he leaves, but fortunately nobody bothers chasing after the weird hooded guy.
Emery is by the lake, and hopefully Zel was eavesdropping on Emery’s conversation with the innkeeper back at the inn so he’d know to look there. That was Emery’s intention, anyway! Either way, Emery’s not going anywhere until Zel catches up with him.
He’s found a relatively private corner of the lake- visible, but there’s nobody else within earshot- and is idly trying and failing to skip stones. His expression is distant, but once Zel shows up Emery’s mouth twitches into a smile despite Zel’s no doubt abject misery.]
