Georges knowledge of local factions, events and legends is very limited - he finds himself here with the opportunity to ask the locals a few questions while the smith straightens out the leg, and of course Lynette has a wealth of stories for the road.

( He is not looking for information at this time, he is going off of who he meets and how they act. talking with her would not go well for she would want him to say sorry and hes not simply put he has no reason to find her or speak with her.)

OOC: Lynette is the sister that's coming with us. She hasn't done anything to upset George or Ka'lion (yet).

( not what i ment, i know who she is. i was meaning he is not going to small talk anymore until he knows what it is people want in and out life. Also she would want me to say sorry to her sister and to her for making her sister run off. If u want him to open up you need to stuart to let him do his job, you have yet to do so. until then no extra effert on his part. He is done with his job being ignored, you have the abilty now to start at any time. So far since the trip back he has been silent other then at the gate and right after but nothing more.)

OOC: Lynette has already said that her sister is prone to running off, I don't think she's expecting any sort of apology.
As for George's job, I thought his job was to patch us up when we get hurt (which is frequently) :-) I thought Vadania has already told George her goals in life (which are rather modest). Her immediate goal is to rescuer the people under siege. Her long term goal is to protect the Fell. She'd like to have company along the way, but not too much company. She's not comfortable in towns, too many people (she was raised in isolation with only rare visitors), and it stinks! They do have nice treats though...

He needs things beyond that simple. as he has said more then once every time u just give him basic. Both are way to basic. they are goals ok fine for what he sees is u doing it for others cause others are failing badly at it, but not taking the embodiment of a word. I think u are going for Sacrifice, loyalty, leadership. Yet all u tell him is end goal not what u want to be. To save the fell is not life time job its a ok it needs to be done, ok cool no meaning it cause to save it always every time no matter what is protector and that is a path an act of being. Take a miner his job is to mine but what he stands for without saying it is hard working. He gives meaning to the word of the act of what he does, his job does not define him, but his path is to inspire hard work to get other miners in there on time to make kingdom rich of hard work. Its the idea of freedom but living it, showing it in action. What your looking for is a word a single word of the way of acting so others can see it and be inspired.

It might be more fun to do this as an IC discussion while waiting for the mechanism to be fixed.  Vadania said, " I am a Druid. It may not be the role I am best suited for, but it is one that I have accepted. And as a druid, I am compelled to protect nature from those who would harm it. In my case, it is to protect my home, the fell, as best I can. While I hope that the immediate threat of this demon is defeated soon, the protection of the fell is a lifelong commitment. This is what I am. But I have found that I do not like doing this with only Ylva for company, so I seek out others and attempt to help them in their goals as well. I am perhaps more inclined to help townsfolk than most Druids, perhaps because they do not seem to be enough of them in the fell to have much of an impact on the land. Except when they release demons, although I believe that they have suffered more than the fell itself from the demons release."

" This would have been helpfull info weeks ago now i can help u do much more. Your words are excepting others culture or living bridge. You see u like humans but dislike citys or towns. Yet humans are afriade of the fell, and dont seak elfs as allies. You can be a bridge so both can thrive. If the humans dont cut trees and elf magic helps them til land and make better crops, no more deforestation both are happy . Elfs show them tree forts so humans can build up using less wood, the humans hunt only what they need. If druid in animal form is shot it could be a miscommunication. Stops needless death on both sides. Druids show them what to look for, how to hunt better but only for need not sport. You could show them so your friends dont get hurt. You protect the land and any interaction has to be accepted by both sides. You are the start of all that, and inspires two nations, just by a few actions on your part. You could be the meaning of all that."

Vadania answers, "I don't think I could be a bridge between Elves and anyone. Other then my parents, I've never seen another elf. When my parents died in an ambush, I was taken in and raised by a human. I haven't seen another elf since. As for wood cutting and hunting, there aren't enough humans in the fell for that to be a problem."

Lynette senses that George is giving her the cold shoulder and sticks with Garrot as the smith works on the machine, the two seeming to have some common interests in life.
The work will be finished soon enough, the party can buy any additional supplies they want before they set off along the road. One of the townsfolk mentions that there was a waystation on the road - a large inn - but doubts it would have escaped Ibixian attention as they have had no word from it since the siege.

Vadania checks to see if trail rations are available, she wouldn't be surprised if food is short in a town that's been under siege. She'll also look for some rope, we've been slowly using up Ka'lion's rope. It looks like it might be handy. Finally she'll see if there are some sun rods available.

Rope and sun rods are available, but the town is still struggling to gather food after the siege and has little to spare.

George waits til she gets things
" so i will ponder your words. yours is a complex case but i think i have made a bit of head way. More so that i have in given weeks. To give an example Garrot is living his word adventure. Him driving and willing to do so was brave but inspired me to keep doing my work, for he showed me that he can be a living word. He can give inspiration to teach others to drive. Making transportation more safe. Finding new artifacts to show an old culture to New others. Adventure i would say is his, but not his only one. you dont have to keep to one living word you know u can be many. You must first find it in yourself as he has learned to do so.

If the group has no other plans here Vadania believes that they can make the inn, or what's left of it, and the fork in the road by nightfall.

With the leg repaired the group set out at once, making what use they can of the light. The path they travel shows signs of the old siege with occasional piece of clothing and personal items discarded by the roadside.
Darkness has fallen by the time they reach the inn, no lights show within. It seems that whoever gathered here moved on to the south but the the Ibixian do not appear to have ever advanced this far - indeed it would seem that those who laid siege to Burr Town must have gone north west towards the fell and the barbarian lands or else the group would have encountered signs of their passage by now.

" so what would you like to do now? Cause staying here does not look like anyone is left. Going in is just asking for trouble."

Vadania answered, "Well if anyone wants to sleep with a roof over their head, we can go and check to see if it's as deserted as it looks. Otherwise we can find a spot to camp outside for the night."

( Both players with good spot and search are out of action right now. going in is just asking for us to be jumped. Yet if you want to you can, George will not let you go alone. Keep in mind him walking will have no move silently just so you know. Also we have no back up so if we do fight its not going to be simple.)

" it is not wise to do either nor nither and hears lies the conundrum. You are so hasty to take charge but never think of the affect it has on your teammates or take head to any waring or advice. You put " the greater good" above our lives.
I know your doing your best at leading but so far we dont function as a unit. A leader cant lead a team of I's and me's.
If you say its cause of ka'lion you would end up not being correct. We need to start acting like a team and trust we have eachothers backs. Its why altar made me so angry was he turned on one of us. Doing so he therefore turned on all of us. Its why i was angry you still took something we should not have.
That in all honesty should have left but you claim your still going to find out what it is. And you say trying to do good is what is best for everyone. Ka'lion and I dont see why we are being forced to gave to do good dispite what i have told you about letting people do as they wish . Meaning turst between us is not current with actions or words. Its why we cant go in or anyplace for that matter, not until we are a full unit. For if we keep refusing we will Die and fail as all teams of I do."
