Recap of Episode 2

Episode 2, titled The Underground Healer in the Abandoned Part of Town, unfolded the backstory of Zenos. After being cast out from his party, he encountered an injured slave named Lily. Once he rescued her, Zenos was motivated to create an underground clinic to sustain their lives.
Fortunately, they located a suitable house in a deserted section of town. Though initially occupied by a wraith named Carmilla, Zenos negotiated access for himself and Lily to utilize the first floor. The episode culminated in Zenos healing Zophia and forging important alliances with the lizardmen, concluding with his friendship blossoming with Lynga and the werewolves.
