“She wasn’t there when all that went down. She probably heard but is safe. We should try and contact her again. She’d be our best bet to get in.” Vishal answers as he makes sure everyone has some food before he starts to eat
"The relevant equation is: Knowledge = power = energy = matter = mass; a good bookshop is just a genteel Black Hole that knows how to read." - Terry Pratchett
Taran starts speaking, "M-Mister Caelius is w-worried about Riikana, o-of her p-potentially f-finding us or interfering with H-Hama. Sh-She d-did s-see your d-disguises, and if y-you f-fought she i-is likely to r-r-remember you all."
“Well she didn’t see you two. You could get in contact with Hama. I have no idea if Riinka would talk to Hana afterwards or if she even saw me talking to her.” Vishal answers
“I think you two would be amazing at getting in contact with her. And probably more capable when it comes to escaping than us. Learned a smoke trick and forget that Fire isn’t as common around here.” Vishal says with embarrassment
“I could not do this without you Taran. You could easily do this alone. Don’t translate that. Translate the following. Once we have a plan, we’ll reach out to her.”

I could not do this alone. I would not know what to do.
"M-M-Mr. C-Caelius says th-that once we h-have a p-plan we will r-reach out to h-her."Taran finally grabs a bowl for himself now that everyone is eating. "I-I c-can give you s-some of my s-smokescreen items, Es- um, V-Vishal, o-or I-I could m-make you s-some Alchemist T-Tinder or F-Fire..."
"Sh-should w-we t-try and c-contact J-Jaash wh-while th-there, o-or i-is it t-to r-risky?"
“I think it might be too big of a risk now. And thank you Taran. Just something that’ll quickly start a fire which I can then use for my own trick.” Vishal replies
"O-Okay,"Taran says, "I'll m-make a few batches t-tonight b-before bed. I-I d-don't have a l-lot for anything else th-though... M-maybe I c-could get s-supplies in town, o-or would that be suspicious?"
"You won't be able to get things in town," Ryder says flatly. "The supply depot wouldn't have anything you'd need for...that stuff, and besides you'd be stealing from Riedran civilians. Not to mention the fact that at least tonight, tensions will be high after what just happened."
River looks over briefly as everyone is making a plan before turning back to face the corner, one talon tracing the design on her shield as she thinks to herself.

"O-Oh," Taran says looking at Caelius, "I-I d-didn't realize."
Then he turns to Vishal as he puts his soup bowl away, "I-I w-won't w-waste them, a-and I'll m-make s-some tinder f-for m-myself. It m-might be u-useful."
Then he steps away to begin doing exactly that.
Figure I can put in 6 hours of work, which will be 3 items. I'll do one flask and two sticks all DC 10
"D-do y-you th-think sh-she is s-safe? Sh-She might have b-been captured when y-you were a-attacked if sh-she was nearby."

Caelius frowns and signs,
“What about Riikana? What if she finds us here? Or tells Hama not to work with us? Or sabotages our entry into the kintam?”

Taran looks aghast, "I-I w-wouldn't st-steal!" He blushes from his outburst, "I-I w-was going t-to b-buy them. I w-would n-never..."

"We don't buy things in Riedra. They're given out based on need by the Inspired, so that nobody has to go without."

“From what I say that’s what is seems like. Don’t waste all your supplies on me Taran. I still have a candle I can use.” Vishal replies with a smile

The next day, Taran, Caelius and Liira (despite Taran's protests) head back towards the Kintam town to try and contact Hama.
The town seems not to be on high alert, and while a few people seem nervous, there isn't increased security or anything.
