Aelan was going to answer Davroar's tavern question but Zindra explains more, and he's happy to not have to describe everything. He does offer a quick jest. "Only one inn but it's probably large enough to fit two taverns in," he says with a chuckle.
To Zindra he shrugs. "It's not too expensive. Fair, really, and as I said... you can earn your keep in ways other than coin." | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 Wizop Administrator |  Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 | Jaliera
She moved up as Zindra waved and smiles at Aelan.
"Well met and thanks for your help. It sounds like staying in the inn together might be a good strategy and also there may be some opportunities to be followed up on." | | | | | Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,726 Likes: 3 Administrator | | Administrator Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,726 Likes: 3 | Davroar
"Guess the inn's our best choice." Other than camping outside, it's their only option for lodging, and he nods in agreement that they should all keep together.
"Before we go. Any other important people we should know about at Calling Horns, Aelan?"
This Tamalin person sounds like the main leader of the settlement, but Aelan really did not say that, and it would be nice to know who is, or who to avoid. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,550 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,550 Likes: 23 | Aelan
"Important?" the merchant smiles to Davroar. "Well that would be Tamalin. She's one of the two people there I trust."
He pauses for effect, then adds, "The other is someone everyone in the town will tell you not to trust... she's... not quite all there..."
The words are accompanied by his hand drawing a circle around his ear, a universal sign for craziness.
"Witch who lives just this side of the town. Heart of gold. Don't trust what anyone else says about her." | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,550 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,550 Likes: 23 | Aelan
As the party seems content with the knowledge they've gained, the merchant gathers up his reins and looks prepared to spur his horse and cart back into motion.

As the man gathers the reins, he takes a step back from the cart.

He waved goodbye to the merchant adding "travel well." He too made sure he was out of the way and prepared to continue on when his companions were ready to travel. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,726 Likes: 3 Administrator | | Administrator Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,726 Likes: 3 | Davroar
"Thanks for your time", he will add to the departing merchant, and then Davroar will turn to look east, thinking that they still have a long way to go. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,227 Likes: 10 Wobbly Headed Administrator | | Wobbly Headed Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,227 Likes: 10 | Arus
Arus had slowed his horse to a very relaxed walk, bringing up the rear of their party. He hadn't wanted to crowd the merchant and make them uncomfortable.
He nods to the merchant as he passes and continues, looking to pick up the pace again over the next mile or so. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 | Zindra
Now, with some advance knowledge in hand, she bids the traveler fare well and turns her steed to the road ahead.

The rest of the first day is uneventful. Who's up for roasting rabbit by the fire at camp? Insert timeskip posts below whilst I roll dice to see what creepy things happen in the dark. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 Wizop Administrator | | Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 | Jaliera
She likes to be on the road, each day fresh, new places, new experiences. She willingly assists in setting up the camp and helping to make an evening meal.
"Fire? or no fire?"
It is a consideration. Fire can attract enemies but also provides hot food, warmth and possible defence. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 Member | | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 | <Bern>
"I would like a fire. If we have any 'uninvited guests' ... I would like to be able to see them", he said.

She nods agreement. The group has had more than enough issues with conflict in darkness. "As you know, I need no sleep. I will watch from out of the firelight so as to not ruin my Darkvision. In the meantime, some rabbit stew would be nice I think." | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 Member | | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 | <Bern>
"A good hot stew sounds great", he said with enthusiasm and an anticipatory smile.

"Aye, set a fire." says Arus, scanning around the northern landscape. "I'll circle around; see what if aught is in the area."
The triton is no scout but his horse has animal senses enough and should be tempting enough to draw out any large predators. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 23,052 Likes: 12 (Buffalo) Moderator | | (Buffalo) Moderator Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 23,052 Likes: 12 | Zhu
She smiles and raises an eyebrow at Bern. As the Ranger in the group, she expected that he would go hunt and bring back the rabbit. Of course Davroar would be another option, but she thought the Druid might have more difficulty killing game. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 Member | | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 | <Bern>
Since there didn't seem to be any dissent, he got his bow ready and headed out to find dinner.

"I can offer a shelter to protect the humanoids of us. Though our animals will have to remain outside of the spell area or the ritual won't work." | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 Member | | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,496 Likes: 12 | <Bern>
"Save your spells for when we =need= them", he said with a grin. "We have survived much worse and the spell might be more useful ... =if= things don't go well tonight", he finished with a wink and a grin.

"Up to you", she says to Sindar. "If it is a ritual, it would be effectively a free effect." She says to Bern. "It wouldn't cost Sindar anything to use it." | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 | ooc: Sindar can certainly afford to spend a 3rd level spell on the road, especially since it will result in a long rest at which he will be able to replenish his used spell slots.
Zindra
"That would be a neat trick. Why don't you guys start the fire. I'll join Bern in the hunt."

Just before Bern and Zindra set out he offers, "Need a hunting dog? If not, I'll be here." Davroar figures the two will find something easy enough, so he will help in gathering some firewood as well as dig out a small fire pit for the group. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 Wizop Administrator | | Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 | Jaliera
She sends Whisper aloft, flying a larger further circle to see if there are any threats in the area. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,520 Likes: 7 | Zindra
"Come along as long as you don't scare away the prey," she replied to Davroar.
