Re: Chapter 1 - Groshdou
The rescued townsfolk nervously abide by Trophonius' warnings, being in a strange place and not knowing how their current circumstance came to be, despite the explanations from their rescuers. They huddle as closely together as they can, remaining wary throughout the darkness of nightfall, banking on the hope that there will be more to come help them return to their home.
Later the following morning eight individuals arrive with hunting carts in tow; Esperon, Mardrough, and six able-bodied people from Groshdou. The townsfolk are all awake, some still a bit confused, some quite grumbly, some quietly awaiting the next course of action. When they see their fellow townsfolk arrive with carts, they become quite delighted to receive food and water which had been brought for them in the carts.
While everyone is enthusiastically wolfing down their food, Mardrough turns to Hurley and Esperon. "That wasn't here before," he says, pointing to the domed structure. "Did my bounty have something to do with its appearance? What wonders lay inside?"
