Miyana sighs. "Looks like we're going back to Threshold."

Indeed, Will replies.
Back to Threshold, then.

The Patriarch nods at you, then turns to his aide:
"Father Diadane; please see to the preparations for travel. I’d like to leave as soon as we can"

"Yes, Your Eminence" Father Diadane nods. He still has some misgivings about allowing the holy father to travel at this weather, at his age, but also knows there is no point arguing with him "I’ll see to it at once"

Baudry Diggle
Baudry shifts his weight awkwardly from foot to foot. How easy was it for them to forget about the little folk! He waited for the opportunity to say something, which presented itself once they made the decision to travel. "Begging your pardon, your highness," he gave a little bow "My name is Baudry. Baudry Diggle. My people are in dire need of help. Our lands are being raided; hobgoblins, coming from across the border. They are organized, and well armed. Something need to be done about them, but no one seems to care" he lifts his chin up in defiance "I know I might be speaking out of place, but if you could arrange a meeting for me with the Duke. Or maybe someone else who can act, I’ll be in your debt, and the shire folk would remember it long after I’m gone"

The Patriarch listens with quiet sympathy, nodding softly at the halfling:
"You did right to speak, Master Diggle. The suffering of your people will not be ignored." he turns again to Father Diadane "See that this matter is brought to the Duke's attention the next time he comes to pray. Make him understand it is a matter close to my heart."

"Yes, your Eminence" the bishop bows his head again, then turns to leave to make the preparations for the journey.

Boudica turns to offer her support for Baudry, perhaps speaking on his behalf, but by the time she realizes he has spoken up the patriarch has already addressed the issue. Boudica is genuinely moved by the Patriarch’s reaction.

He hopes the matter to leave aren't too soon as he like to visit upon the city. Being a man that lives more off the land it is a nice change of pace. He wonders with the others have in plans.

Although the 8 coins in his pocket says that he will not be doing it as a richer man. And since he hasn't had time to hunt and such, he has no furs that he can trade in for coin. So, anything major is off the board as well as much of any new purchases.

He awaits to hear more about needed preparations for the travels. He knows that he has a meager weeks' worth of iron rations still. He asks curiously, "If we aren't leaving the city just yet. Is there a fine place to stay?" One must always consider one's tummy.

He hopes the Duke can aid Baudry Diggle. Bishop Norbert has been quiet moving. He always has a soft spot for religious types anyway.

William joins with his friends, in searching for a suitable Inn, and intention to join in knightly competitions.
I suppose I’ll use my Longsword, he says. Funny…I have less devotion to that weapon now, and I’m more drawn to the two-hander. I really need to get it identified, the two-handed I mean. But…I also don’t want to draw too much…well, undue attention.
