Chapter 4: Inn Bed as a Banana

(No this is not NSFW lol)
"Ugh... Huh..?!" The suddenly fainted protagonist wakes up in a warm bed inside a comfy looking hut, the fireplace burning and crackling softly in the background, and it being night, judging by the dark outside instead of the light, making it even more comfortable.
"Where...?" he sits up, noticing he didn't have his sweater on but had a bandage on his arm, where he got cut by that red haired young man (see Chapter 2).
"Ah, you're finally awake." he hears a voice speaking out, he then saw a young woman sitting on a chair next to the fireplace knitting the cut on his sweater.
She continues to talk:"You passed out at the town entrance, it got reported by the townspeople and now you're here, at the inn."
Duone's stomach grumbled:"Well, I think this here's why I passed out... Who are you anyway? Thanks for helping me!"
She sighs and stands up:"My name is Mary, I work at this inn you're... in." she laughs:"I'll see if I can get some food for you, okay? Be right there." she said as she leaves the room.
Duone thought again:"Where do I even get all the answers? There must be something, or even someone, I'll just ask this lady, who knows?"
She came back with a plate of freshly made rice and meat:"Here, this should fill you up for now."
Mary sits down on a chair next to him and asks:"Who even are you? A traveler? If so, you don't really look the part..."
Duone pouts and tells her:"No, I woke up in some weird Laboratory, ran around in it for a good while, fought a crazy red haired guy, got out here, found this village and apparently fainted on the entrance, oh food!!" he hastily eats it all up, and when finished looks at the young woman with a cheery smile:"Please fill up again!"
Mary looks at him angrily:"No, if you want more then you gotta pay! And I won't give you more anyways, since I was gonna give you this."
She hands him a small leather bag with something clinking in it, he opens it to find a bunch of coins.
"Since I thought you were a traveler, I wanted to give you 50 coins, you looked so inexperienced and... weird." she points at his banana hair.
"Well, thanks! What can I buy with these bucks?" he says excitedly.
"Food next door and a night at this inn."
Duone gives her an unimpressed look:"Really? Darn... Do I get this night for free?" he looks at her with puppy eyes.
The young woman sighs annoyed:"Yeah, sure, but after breakfast you're out, ugh, guys these days..." she wanted to leave the room until Duone stopped her.
"Hey, wait! Do you know anyone that could help me, like, identity wise?"
She turns around again and starts thinking:"Yeah, maybe, ask the Town Master if he knows anything, if someone knows it, then its him, now let me do business, hmph..." she leaves the room annoyed.
Duone lies down again and starts to think with his banana brain:"I can't wait to finally get some answers, I really hope he does know something, god I'm so tired, nighty night..." his eyelids close slowly as he drifts off to sleep...
<The next day, morning>
Duone wakes up:"Ugh, huh? Oh yeah... The inn..." he stands up and finds his sweater neatly folded on the chair and a backpack with a paper on it:"Here, since you are so unexperienced I thought you might need this, tsk! - Mary"
Duone giggles and shrugs:"Oh man, girls, anyways it's good to have a backpack!"
He also notices the breakfast and casually eats it all up.
"Damn the food here tastes great, but aight, gotta blast now!"
He puts the gold he got from Mary in his newly aquired backpack and heads out of the inn.
He looks at the village, it's pretty lively, even this early, people working, kids having fun and just standard city behaviour but in a town.
Duone stretches himself:"Huh, this seems like a pretty standard town, but yeah, I might need more info about this place..."
He walks around, putting his hands on his backpack straps and exploring the town.
The young energetic hero sees a random person and talks to him:"Excuse me! Couldja help me?"
The man listens to him:"Oh! Hello there! Are you new or a traveler, and yes I can help you!"
Duone asks him:"Where do I find this Town Elder?"
The man tells him the way there, when Duone runs away, he says silently:"Since when do bananas grow on heads, haha..."
The ever-so excited man-boy soon arrives at the elders house, he see's that it looks very dark, gloomy and... feathery? After inspection, he thinks:"Weird house, spooky... But the people in this town are very nice, wonder how this'll go..."
Duone opens the frontdoor, only to be greeted by a scary owl!
"OOGA-BOOGA-BOOGA!!!" it shouted.
Duone screams in fear!:"AAAAAAHH!!!!" he falls back, hitting the ground and scooting back onto the wall as quick as he could.
"GHAHAHAHAHA! Wow! You should have seen your face young man! GAHAHAHA!!!" the owl-man(?) laughs, enjoying Duone's pants-pooping.
The man takes off his mask, revealing an old, happy and soft looking man with long brown hair and a big beard with glasses making his eyes bigger:"Anyways, hello there! Im the town elder, Kraul! Who might you be, young lad?"
