From rogues, twigs and wolves

by Marya Silverstring

And we are still in the camp
The people are pretty anxious (4 people, 1 women, 3 men, all human)
They want us to drop our weapons
And they don't buy our story about being teleported, well~~
Oh and Dalmir is with the crown, the hell?!
 
So I let drop in Thieves Cant' that I'm with the Myriad
And suddenly the tension gets a little lower
Neat!
So they're with a small local group
And a little more afraid, well
So they show us the way to the street
And I give them a gold for their trouble
At first they're hesitant to accept it, but after gentle pressure, they take it
 
Then we start going
So Dalmir is with the Golden Grin
They oppose Tyrants and stuff and operate out of the Menagerie Coast
Also he's with the Cobalt Soul
Who's kind of with the crown, but kind of indepent, it's difficult
Meanwhile, the bandits behind us start packing up and flee the area
 
We slowly go further towards the street
And we hear something
It's weird little twig things
That are pretty angry about us being here and they attack
Dalmir throws some dark energy as well as holy flames around
Meanwhile I stick to my scimitar, with very mixed results xD
Anyway, we win
And I heal us with Goodberries
 
Shortly after, we notice, that Magnolia is still with us
Though she's speaking in a language we don't understand
She also doesn't understand me anymore O.O
Though we can still kind of communicate in nature writing
So that's something
And she's really sad about it all
I'm gonna learn her language then!
And Dalmir will try too!
 
Then we cross the road and go a little south before resting up a little bit
Dalmir takes the first watch
And we get attacked by wolves, just great
One of them almost kills me
But after killing one of the wolves, the other tries to run away
I get another hit in, but it still flees
Magnolia is pretty terrified of the whole situation
Asks me to fix the wolf as well and doesn't seem to understand the concept of hunters and prey
I try to reassure her, after Dalmir doesn't really know how to handle sad people
Well neither do I, but the words of my mom do the trick
"It's gonna be alright, tomorrow is gonna be a better day, I'm gonna make your favorite food and everything will be fine"
And that actually worked o.o
When I then started getting ready to sleep, she also more or less put the wolf to rest by growing vines and stuff over him
 
After some well deserved rest, we go looking for honey
Thanks to Dalmirs mage hand we get it quite easily and we leave them a goodberry as compensation
Then we make a heated tea-like drink out of honey, goodberries, some water and the shadow of the moonlight from the glowy mage hand
And hey, it hit the spot for Magnolia, great! ^_____^
Not perfectly the same, but still good <3
After drinking up, we then pack up and venture onwards to Deastock!
 
There we then look for a nice inn and there this part of our adventure comes to an end
