Second Thoughts

by Flicker Greenridge

Nice bag. Wonder why Damaia was so interested in it. Doesn't seem sea-worthy with all these patches. Maybe it will hold my herbs.

Puts my mind at ease to know that Keth would leave the others if Wolfie and I asked.

Pumba chose his library. Radlis chose to be reckless. Canarie chose actual attempted murder. Even Raiya...Raiya chose the captives.

Keth is choosing us.

He's right. I shouldn't be so outwardly harsh. Think it's already put a sour taste in Damaia's mouth. Don't know how I'll get around it with Eethyl.

Here's to change.

Coster seems truthful. Don't like that Eethyl came alone and grabbed a wagon without discussion. Shady business is done in shadows.

Keep it to yourself, Flicker.

Halia seems more than willing to work with us. It will be nice to consider her another ally in town. Seems like Wolfaen is enjoying the gem lesson. It's good to see him happy.

Did she say Fence? Black network? ...Family? Ah toadstools.... spend two minutes with the guy and you'd know 'family' is the magic word for Wolfie.... This doesn't sound right. That doesn't sound legal, or safe, or good, or anything any of us should tie ourselves to. I don't want to get on her bad side but this definitely makes me take another look at working too closely with Halia. Don't show doubt. Keep smiling. Come back for the acorn.

Oh good, the horses were well fed and the workers are off. Hope Al is pleased.

I should ask around more about the woman at the tap house. If she's the original owner, and if she left town with the Reds, then maybe that place needs a new owner. Fix it up, turn it into something new, could fill the tunnel with earth... Back up plan if this adventuring doesn't work out? That's not what I want. Is any of this what I want?

Wood pieces knocking a ball on a table? Sounds simple and fun. Why would he think Trilena wouldn't go for that?

Huh...Keth didn't tell Harbin. I can't stand the guy but it's not my place. The town can decide. Halia is giving me pause after that chat with Wolf. Wonder if Toblen's a gossip? Let the wind take the seeds to sow where they will.

Should study this blend. Which herbs are in this? Duke Gray he called it? Delicious tea. Is the bag a gift? Should I have left more coin?

Not too good with gifts. Another area to improve.

Lots of jobs to do.

Would it be enough to keep this town safe?

Just keep moving. Figure it out later.

A slight against him is two against her, it seems. Figure it out later.

Looks like everyone's together again. How to respond without being harsh? Be a horse! What after? Figure it out later.

Explosion! In town! Go!

Flapping showman. Swindler or aid? Figure it out later.

This grass smells nice. I like being outside.
