"Ah," responds Corwyn, unaware of this variable. "I can see I've a lot to learn of the locality." Corwyn relates to Hath and Mukitz what Weimin told them after they were sworn in. "So I would guess that we should be doing both, eventually. We could all start off where you recommend and get to the 'other south' after that."

Hath sits down with his stew and bread and listens to what Corwyn says. As Corwyn speaks he takes a few copper pieces from his pouch and arranges them on the table, then places his roll of bread deliberately on the table in relation to them.

He points to the bread roll "This is the town." He points to the copper pieces "These are the nearest farms. If ya wanna do what Weiman said we can stop by each as we travel South." He moves is finger from the roll to each piece in turn to illustrate.

"Dun't sound none too difficult, go for a walk, talk to sum farmers. Who knows though, might find somethin' a bit more excitin'.

With that Hath picks up the roll, dips it in the stew and takes a bite out of it.

Hath laid out a total of eighteen coins, nine to the left of the loaf and nine to the right of the loaf.

"Well, it matters not which way we go - South West or South East?"
Mar 23, 2021 7:23 pm
In between spoonfuls of stew, Quincy says "Weimin highly recommended you as a guide, so I will follow you whichever way you feel is best, Hath."

Corwyn watches as Hath points out the farms on his 'map' of coins. "Sounds good, we can follow your guidance and ask questions at each farm."
Mar 24, 2021 10:03 am
Hath indicates to the coins on the "west" side "This 'ere is a forest. Nuthin' worrisome I know of in there, plenny o' folks go huntin' there." Indicating to the South "This forest we don't go in. Druid lives there, they don't like no-one comin' in and disturbin' the creatures there." Indicating to the Eastern side "I think maybe we start 'ere. West forest never gave no-one trouble that I heard of, beyond maybe some o' the more feisty critters in there. Druid don't normally bother no-one that don't bother them. Leaves only East to my way o' thinkin'." Hath looks around the table to see if the others agree.

Corwyn nods in agreement, while eating more bread.

Magnus nods " East it is then Hath, and may Torm guide us and give us strength!"

So um who wants to be defacto party leader so that I can ask quick question like -- is the group ready to go -- and get a quick single reply --- otherwise I ask that question and have to wait for a collective reply which generally slows things down

"And wisdom. East it is and we'll follow your advice Hath as to the best routes."

After the group has finished eating and have gathered all the weapons and equipment they plan to take with them and secured the rest within their garrison provided chest, they head out for the southern road. After several hours of walking they come to where the hard packed path turns west and a smaller less traveled wheeled trail leads east. Then after many an additional half hour they come upon the first farmstead. The simple thatch and wattle single room house sits next to an equally simple lean-to with a small wooden corral containing a few the native sheep. As the group approaches a fFolk man walks forward to greet them. When the group is within easy ear shot he calls, "Well met, is there something I can do for you?"

After his breakfast the fresh air from the walk has cleared Corwyn's head from the night before. Seeing no point in delaying matters he gets straight to the point when the fFolk man asks if there's something he can do for them. "Greetings and well met. We are from the garrison. There are reports of farmers experiencing animal losses along with equipment and crop damage, more so recently than usual. Have you experienced any such thing, or if not do you know anything about such happenings?"
Mar 27, 2021 1:24 am
The man's eyes narrow a bit and he says, "No I have not experienced any such issues but then I am pretty insulated here. Further you just missed the patrol who might know more about such things. Perhaps if you run really fast you might catch up with them." Interestingly enough this fFolk does not seem to live up to the more friendly reputation of his brethren.

Corwyn responds in Elvish.
[ +- ] Elvish
He looks round to the others. "He has nothing for us. Does anyone want to ask him anything else or shall we move on?"

Quincy studies the man as they talk.
OOC:
Rolling insight to see if I can tell if the guy is just too proud to admit he needs help, or if he really just hasn’t experienced anything yet.
