He didn't intend to recieve the first coin that soon, but George merely shrugged inwardly as he gave an appreciative smile towards the man.
"Don't get the idea that you're special." the masked man pointed at George. This time, George actually shrugged at the mention of being "special." As long as there was some coin to be earned and some great battles to be seen, he could care less about being "special."
When the masquerade dismissed everyone, the crowd slowly dispersed out of the open square and headed in their own directions, presumably towards inns or taverns. George himself disappeared into an alley so that he could thoroughly explore the city layout, one, because it was wise to have an escape plan, and two, because it would be some time before a considerable crowd would be out. From there, he continued to wander.
