Sora, Antru and Taria all speak draconic. Perhaps they can explain IC during your next rest.

One puzzle solved.

yes...when we get time i will explain IC

The meeting will start Chapter 2. This is a good time for those who had trouble with Draconic to ask questions.

Quick questions: whose cart was that, and did we bring it back?

It belonged to the keep. They took it with them.

Ah. Since we're  shorthanded I'll do the haiku then:

Nice cart, healthy mule/
They owe us twenty-eight gold/
That wasn't the deal. :)

Like the valkyrie of old, charging across the plains, the party charges across the plains, screaming their war cry

....YOU STOLE OUR MULE AND CART!

I like mules

Yeesh, I'm not sure that I would admit that if I were you, Ned. :)

Quick note about Bross axe, btw: I paid for a GreatAxe, it's just... that's the sort of thing they had him use around the farm. (Just 'cause upgrades have been mentioned.)

Ha! I'll tell Ac to quiet down with the "wood-axe" comments, then. :)

Sorry Catrina the first post was empty and has been deleted.

Ah that made sense, and it makes more sense that Crit wouldn't make much impact anyway. Cat will certainly imagine she did though, she really thinks that highly of herself.

I will start a thread for Chapter 2 shortly. It will begin with the Govenor's meeting. I will leave Chapter 1 open for meeting prep until the end of the day tomorrow. for those who post less frequently to contribute before moving on.

So far it looks like Melody has moved on. I think you will manage without her. Ned has been ignored. If no one speaks to him about helping further, he will return to his pigs.

He's clearly gonna be of use later, so I wrote in a 'meet cute' (so to speak) between Bross and Ned. I can stretch it out as much as need be.

The more the merrier. Bring Ned along bross

I'm tryin'!

Keeping up his phone at work. I’ll get a post in after.

Good post Hargrin. Nice to see players that don’t meta. Been around too many who do so it’s a nice change.

Hargrin - Nicely posted. You werent present for the exchange with him, and most didn't hear her offer to help the govener.

Thanks Taria, for getting back. Trying to work the common background thing. (They aren't neighbors, but aren't completely different either.) If that lets you do stuff (like, say, feeling or not feeling like "local girl" now), that's cool.

Also- and I'm not changing anything- it turns out I picked a hilariously impractical language. (Not complaining, its just that, not having any idea what module we're doing, I picked based on what would be plausible for Bross' background. If it naturally comes up, I'll be very amused.)

NP, sorry earlier questions were missed.

gotta hand it to you cat...your determined to make uncomfortable Smalltalk

It's a living, nothing to do but chat up with the guard and learn if his got an extensive backstory hidden in their.
