Timeline
Appearing first as a skeletal illusion, Pisces tries to scare Erin into giving him food but is knocked unconscious. After being woken up, his arrogant demeanor is quickly broken by Erin's threats with a pot. He attempts to scam her with a small payment but is forced to give up several silver coins. He accepts Erin's offer of food, reveals details about the world to her, and introduces himself as Pisces before departing, admitting his hobby is Necromancy.
Pisces arrives at the inn, acting pompously while seeking food. He explains magical weather and the different types of mages to Erin. His criminal past is exposed when Erin tells the newly arrived guardsmen about his robbery attempt. After being arrested, he maintains a sneering facade before using a sophisticated illusion to escape, tricking everyone.
After hiding upstairs, Pisces reveals himself to Erin and attempts to bargain for shelter, revealing his magical prowess and fugitive status. When Erin refuses, he threatens her, but is cowed when she pulls a knife. He is then ambushed by Relc and Klbkch, leading to a destructive fight in the inn. Defeated and about to be executed, he is saved by Erin's unexpected intervention.
When Erin first hears knocking, she briefly wonders if it is Pisces.
