"Because I'm someone who knows more about the dang thing." Brazentalons' scrutinising gaze gets more intense. "He's crazy," he decides. "Now can we get rid of him?"

"Hmm, depends," I say to Brazentalons. I turn to the centaur and ask, "Do you think you would be able to make the rest of the way by yourself?"

You open the Messenger's Satchel.

Inside, there is a parchment. It reads in a hasty scrawl:

Send support. Rampaging orc warbands are in the mountains, picking us off. Roads will not be cleared this year if they have their way. Can't hold out much longer.

Delvin, foreman of the Snow Clearer clan

You try to pry open the window with your hands, but you can't quite get a good enough grip to manage it. Maybe you could use something from your inventory to lever open the window..?

"Yeah." he says curtly, eyes flicking between you and your griffin. "I had wondered how long it would last before you wanted rid of me. So go ahead."

Brazentalon's eyes light up and he spreads his wings. "Well, that's fine then! Shall we go?"

(How long have you been planning this world quest?)(Also I have a question about the gold in my inventory: I thought I spent the gold on a bow and quiver so why do I still have it?)

"Crimson change of plans we need to help the dwarfs," Asteria says, "please go get the others."
Truth be told she was worried and this setback did not make her happy. As a ranger though she'd have to help the dwarfs because it is the right thing to do. Plus she would get proof that the warbands were on the move again.

(Noice)

I regret what I said, but I also don't want to let Brazentalons down at the same time by suddenly changing my decision.
"Well...Safe travels then," I say. I mount Brazentalons and give a small wave good bye even though I'm pretty sure he wouldn't wave back.

(really bad time for an event matey, Nicote's kinda trying not to die over here-)

Nicote rumaged around and pulled out the pick. Hey, it's worth a shot. Better the pick then the dagger, though that he does take out and keeps on hand. Just in case.

(Ack, I forgot the time... I'll assume it was about midday when you started this quest - please correct me if I'm completely off the mark)

As you both walk back, Skywhisper takes in some of the dreary streets you pass through. "Well... this lot could certainly do... with a bit of colour, anyway," he wheezes, out of breath.

When you make it back, Rythia speeds over to you with a gasp of joy. "They all made it! This is... wonderful, absolutely wonderful!"

Reputation gained

Skywhisper stands gobsmacked as she removes the sacks from the barrow single handedly. Finished, she notices that it's taken you into the evening to fetch her seeds. "Look, you've done more than enough for a room for a few nights. Here, take a little gold for your bother."
