Setting out at a moderate pace you begin your journey. The golden path is well marked with deep wagon ruts down the center of an earthy track marked by gold painted boulders. They aren't actual gold of course Zila mentions chattily. Some sort of gold colored paint. No less special though! The paint was enchanted to never wear away or erode, marking this path for all eternity!...or so the wizards say. Some day, I'll know the answer to just how long this paint will last. Zila smiles to herself.
As you travel further from the city thick grasses and shrubs grow up around the sides of the road and just off the road, a few hundred feet, you notice some berry bushes. One of the golden boulders here has a rude drawing painted over the lustrous paint. Seems to be a popular stopping point for travelers, just a few hours from the city gates. You decide to stop for a few minutes and collect some berries, but to continue on, so as not to slow your pace.
As you get further from Nahor, the land becomes more verdant and well watered. This time of year loud buzzing fills the air during the day from the leafhoppers that seem ubiquitous in these grasslands. Suddenly, Zila stops.something is coming. Her eyes flash with a violet light for a moment. Prepare yourselves. It will be upon us soon. You all notice that the insects have suddenly gone deathly silent.
