Theft of Supplies

Life, Crime

A report about the theft of supplies from the packed wagons which delayed the onset of this years resupply and exploration missions.

Quartermaster’s Report To the good people of Flint and its surrounding homesteads, I wish to display my utmost gratitude for the providing of quality goods in preparation for our journey. All of you worked very hard, and your labor will not go unrewarded. In the moons to come, we will hopefully discover even more of what lies beyond the Pass and uncover the wonders that exist there. However, this prospect is bittersweet, as we have been dealt a blow at one of the most crucial of times. The wagons that were packed and stowed with the necessities for our expedition, have been raided. By whom specifically, we are not sure, but suspicions lie with the exiles as there was no evidence of animals or vermin to be found, and some of the locks on the wagons were picked or broken. This would mark an instance where they were bold enough to sneak into Flint itself, which is until this point unheard of. At any rate, we lost many essentials, most importantly a large stock of our medicine and trade tools meant to help us sustain during the venture. As it so happens, this presents a crippling shortage and brings us below the readiness threshold I had set for us. I’m afraid to say that unless we get those supplies back, we will have to either cancel the expedition altogether, or postpone it until more provisions can be crafted. The most ideal of situations would see those supplies recovered and returned by the end of the month, which would keep us on schedule. I humbly request, that those who are able and willing, track down these goods, and possibly apprehend the ones responsible for taking them. The Colony’s status despite this, remains healthy and well provided for. Quartermaster Keane
