You step inside and see an old shopkeeper behind a counter. "Welcome, welcome!", he said, "I haven't seen a customer in years since the bandit raid. Now what would you like to buy young fella?". A bandit raid? You never heard such things, you never heard about anything in the city unless it is an announcement from the Royal family. Anyway you notice there is an sheathed sword, "I see you got your eyes on that sword over there", the old man speak, "you can have it for 1 coin, I don't have plan for it anyway." Huh, cheap stuff? Will you take it?
Yes
You got the old sword and say goodbye to the old man, then back to the journey. After going through the guards, you found yourself on a path with meadows on both sides.
