Chapter 3
In reply to Brennan Otthild (msg # 561):
Up and Over
Brennan and Enrei set off for the mountains before noon, with Enrei eagerly leading.
The ascent and subsequent descent are uneventful, but exhausting.
When you reach the new camp, it is not long before nightfall.
As promised, Bryce is still there with the horses, your supplies, and, fortunately, the goat.
"Took ya long'nuff!" he snorts with a smile. "Had morning come I would have been on my way."
He looks you over. "Had an adventure I hear... care to share?" his voice becomes almost a whisper. "Are the witches TRULY dead or is this another of Titus' stories"
The Village
Titus remains behind, telling stories, getting sultry looks, and collecting more Fastbender trappings.
Night finally approaches, and Titus is again asked to tell tales by firelight.
