Moving on
With zarmatan saying all he had, plans were made for the group to cross the river to the north, walk towards the mountain as and to the desert, where supposedly another stone was guessed to be.
It was 3 days since the meeting, and the group divided up to prepare. Kell, while spending time in contemplation with the stone, also visited the smith in the village, manned by a half elf woman. Sonori, after her meeting with zarmatan, contemplated the information gleaned. Yacob, also after his meeting, spent time looking for magic. Nym, at home in the forest village, looked around for magical items that may help. Nino, ever the dwarf, ate, drank and met a lovely elf woman with a pet wolf Rivka and Zell, spending quality time together, managed to resupply some arrows and visit Zell aunt once more, though that second meeting she was a lot worse off. Neliwen spent her time with the elderly cleric, listening to his tales and advice for what was to come. Finally Quinn, feeling out of place, honed his sword and armour and practiced.
The day came when the group met on the northern shore of the village, where a elven ship was prepared with food for each of you, enough for the next two days of fresh meat and fish and another week of rations.
Zarmatan, princess Almeseria and Kalthranath we’re the only three other than the three elves designated for sailing the ship over. Princess Almeseria smiled at you all as you gathered. “What you do here may effect the realms themselves. If I was but a few hundred years younger I would insist on coming, but this task is yours. All provisions are taken care of as well as a few gifts. There are two minor bags that can hold much. It was all we had in the village. Lady Rivka, there is a bushel of special arrows for you as well. I wish you all good luck”
Next zarmatan stepped forward. “This ruse won’t buy you long....a day, two at most. When they know, they will come for you. Remember what I told you all. Together you are strong....and by the gods, don’t do anything foolish”
The elderly elf smiled, and looking at each, finished his gaze on Neliwen. “Stay safe.”
<OOC: this is the final opertunity to ask or say anything before leaving. You have been given 2 bags of holding type 1 and 14 +1 arrows. I’ll move things along in 2 days unless someone wants to bring something up>
