Here starts a new chapter!

A group of escaped slaves, refugees, outlaws and beggars are drawn to a place a few miles from Pavis by an irresistible force they cannot explain, to meet a tall man who is obviously more than human, and who carries a glowing staff.

"Serve me, and you will be rewarded!"

The dawn breaks, and the year 1616 begins.

Now that three of the four people that want to ride rhinos have them, we've three mules to consider possibilities.

Given the situation, I'd consider each of those mules to be the "property" of their ex-rider, so any decision would be up to them, but there might be something of value that the Rhino clan has that someone with an "extra" mule could trade to them. That might be tack/harness or lance, etc., for use with the rhinos, if that wasn't given to you, or durables/gear that the party might need to survive on the plains.

Of course keeping the mules is always an option- that's future food riding along with us if it would become a need.

Just for the record, John said Mules or Horses. As a Sartarite at heart and a defacto Pol-Joni, I have a horse. For now.
