[ic=Timothy "Gray"]"Sorry sir about the rudeness here, I'm sure you understand the lack manners to be due simply to the cramped nature of the camp." After addressing the Captain, he scurries out the door after the others.[/ic]

[ic=Crow] Crow saunters out of the inn[/ic]
[ooc]Didn't know one comment would cause such a lag...lo siento[/ooc]

Captain Obvious · February 19, 2007, 10:20:41 PM

[ooc]You've definitely got maxed out ranks in Craft (distraction) and Proffesion (sidetracker).
Or should sidetracking be an alternative use of the Survival skill...[/ooc]

Guys, I apologize for not letting you know that I would be unavailable this past weekend. Anyhoo, I will be continuing with the game once I get home from work today (around 7:00 EST this evening or so).
Cheers!

Quote from: Captain GraybeardJust follow the map. I would recommend staying on the path through Vel Dunn, and not traversing the wilderness between roads too much. It could be nothing, but Sorah thought he saw some movement to the northwest of the city out in the plains. Good luck, and Godspeed to you.[/ic]

QuoteHe steps back inside and Cecil comes out. The two quickly clasp arms. Cecil steps into the rain, and Graybeard closes the door behind him.
I promise, I'll have a map up by tomorrow, even if I have to draw it on the computer (ick!). For the time being, assume you have it at your disposal, and you may ask me anything about topographical and urban features within about a fifty mile radius. For your info, the Dunn Road follows the coast to the north all the way to Vel Dunn, which is about 30 miles north, and then the Old Midway goes between Vel Dunn and Sardatown to the west. About 10-ish miles northwest of Sardatown, in the Salt Hills, is a large "X" with the words "fires" scribbled hastily next to it.[/ooc]

[ic= [link=http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=7910][/link]] Fizz mounts the steed quickly and draws out the map, careful to shield it with the hood of his cloak. "Well, it looks like we've got about 40 miles to cover. If we get in some riding tonight, we can be there by tomorrow afternoon or evening."[/ic]
[ooc]Depending on whether they're Light Horses or Heavy Horses. And how much the rider weighs.[/ooc]

[ooc]
They're light horses, and not really even warhorses. They just happen to be all the horses that were brought back across the Mesare Sea on the ships (minus the one the Captain kept for himself).[/ooc]

[ic]Dura mounts the horse, with his wolf running at his side.[/ic]
[ooc]Shall we just assume everyone is mounted and we're ridding? Let'sa go![/ooc]

Furor · February 21, 2007, 05:25:12 PM

[ic=Crow]Crow does likewise "ready?"[/ic]

limetom · February 21, 2007, 06:12:00 PM

[ic=Naoise]Naoise takes his time getting on his horse. He's never ridden this animal before, so despite its training, neither of them fully trust one another. He walks around it, petting it along it's neck, the most non-threatening thing one can do to a horse.

When he feels it is sufficiently relaxed, he puts his left foot in the stirrup, and starts the horse at a slow trot. As he completes mounting the moving horse, he turns back and says, "Aye."

Naoise looks up, rain pouring down onto his face, he turns back again, and says, "Deh weather's pretty fierce, like. 'T'll slow us down, to be sure..."[/ic]

So-Keher · February 21, 2007, 06:51:04 PM

[ic=Cyyn]Cyyn nimbly climbs aboard his steed, seeming comfortable even though he has spent little time on a horse before. This isn't so bad, it'd probably be better without a saddle. His mink poked its head back out, sniffing wildly and hissing at the horse. A drop of rain spatteres his nose and he sniffs and hides again.[/ic]

Numinous · February 21, 2007, 09:11:54 PM

[ic=Timothy "Gray"]Timothy clambers atop a rather mangy mare and faces downward to cope with the rain that is running in rivulets down the hood of his cloak.[/ic]

Furor · February 22, 2007, 03:50:40 PM

[ic=Crow]As Crow kicks his horse into motion he turns in the saddle " Only a little rain."[/ic]

Darkxarth · February 22, 2007, 04:53:25 PM

[ic=Fizz] "That's how hurricanes start, you know. As 'just a little rain.' Not that I think we're in for that kind of weather. Still, it'll make the ground slick and we need to be careful of our horses slipping in the mud." He looks upward, squinting his eyes to try and keep the rain out, and looks at the clouds overhead. "I think we're in for a good long rain, might as well get used to being damp and cold." [/ic]

Captain Obvious · February 22, 2007, 04:56:39 PM

[ic Dura]"A little rain never hurt no one."[/ic]
