In reply to Breya (msg # 19):
Moon coughs a bit after
Cassandre about absent comrades. She claps a hand against her chest.
"Sorry. That went down the wrong pipe.
"And gettin' there is no problem. You take the path out by the Merskin place and go right at the first fork, then left at each next one until you get to the oak that they used to hang lanterns on...
"Yeah. Lemme just draw you that map..."
Salt Lick is up and at work as you all head towards the Brangham's place. You head north and east out of town. Farmers you pass by wave at you. Seems word of you has spread rather quickly. Everyone is friendly. One farmer offers you a basket of squash. Another one offers you all some water from a bucket he just pulled out of his well.
You soon come up the road to what must be the Brangham place.
As
Moon said, the scarecrow is unique. A rusted chest piece from some old suit of plate mail. A dented kettle helm perched on top of an old, petrified cabbage which is serving as the scarecrow's head. One of it's arms is a thatch of sticks tied together. The other is bracer stuffed with hay they stuck an old glove on.
It's definitely distinctive.
The scarecrow sits by a cornfield next to a small stream. On the other side of the path is a wheat field. You can see the farm proper not far away. It's a little run down looking, but no one seems to be around at the moment.
