A silly question...

But if anyone can help me that would be amazing!

Super new to the game so everything is quite fresh. I retreated with my hero after realising I was 100% outmatched but then suddenly my hero just disappears. The game focuses me on my castle but I have no hero and seemingly no way to rehire him? Unless I'm missing a button or something.

Apologies if it's a bit of an obvious question but thank you in advance!

If you retreat you should find your hero in the tavern (where you hire heroes usually)
