This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Angorn made his way out of the city to safety of the wilderness keeping his defenses up the entire, only allowing himself to relax after putting considerable distance between himself and the city. He sets out to forage what he can for his evening meal and find any healing plants he can find to stock back his provisions. (Nature/investigation check12 general perception check for animals if they might be agressive 24)
(Responding to the lady) Henricook nods. Of course he can use his Yklwa! He looks at the magic fighter next to him, and a crow seems to appear on his shoulder. He smiles.
(Now) Henricook takes about 25 Rations and Studded Leather. (does that cover it? I don't know. Too early for math right now, sorry... :) ) He looks at the lady and says Thanks.
(Lets see... 25 rations is about 12.5 gp, Studded Leather is... geez! Yikes. Ok then.)
Instead of Armor, Henricook takes a few Grenade, Smokes. (How much would they cost? These seem cool.)
Zack took a moment to make a mental note of these smaller towns. Allright. Just a few pit stops on the way to the final destination. And yeah, I should take a minute to look through whats here. Better to have something and not need it, than need it, and not have it. I'll see what I can do with what I got. As he then moves to browse the wares, he listens in on the others conversations, half out of curiosity, and half out of necessity. Hearing the elf (OOC - who I don't think has named themselves, Unless I missed it?) speak of how horribly he hated the city gave Zack cause to chuckle, until he realized the elf essentially made a beeline for the exit once he knew what gate the caravan would be heading out I guess we'll meet you on the way out? he says internally as he grabs a few more things to pay for. Once satisfied with his purchases, he would make one more pass by Louisa Thanks for the discounts. I'll see you here bright and early.
Zack gives her a loose salute in farewell, before going about his business for the day, preparing his things, and strapping his new supplies in.
[Lodestones? Like I know what they are IRL, but I don't think they're a thing in D&D, at least not that I can find. Also, Whetstones are free with the 10% discount]

[Okay, but why do you need 30 of them? The spell doesn't say it consumes them, meaning you can use the same two lodestones over and over again.]
Venny don't need anything right now. She walked back home with the good news that she got a job and would travel to the capital as well. Vennys family have been talking about moving there and now Venny can scout out the city before deciding to actually move there. And what job opportunities are there in the big city?
Venny will be waiting at the north gate the next morning.
(Sorry for keeping you waiting. I thought I had posted an update but apparently I hadn't)
Angorn, you find a decent amount of small animals and edible plants, enough for your evening meal and an extra days rations. No hostile animals were seen.
Henricook, smoke grenades do seem cool, I had no idea they existed. They are 15gp each (before discount applied)
The next day comes around and everyone has made their final preparations. If someone has stuff they decide they wish to buy, it will be possible as you travel as you will be with the caravan. You all meet at the gate (or just after for Angorn) and start to head off.
Louisa is riding in the front cart leading the horses, the back cart being ridden by someone you hear refererd to as Marcus. Where are the rest of you and what are you doing? (there is space for one person to sit on each cart but they are traveling at walking pace)
Henricook is in the air, flying about 10ft above them, in order to spot threats and because he likes to fly. The crow is there too, but is in his seat.
(LEt’s see.... that equals to... 1 smoke bomb and 3 days of rations!)
Angorn approaches the party and bows deeply to Louisa, My most sincere apologies for yesterday, I was not the most cordial with you or the others of this party. I didn't even introduce myself and just took this job. May I introduce myself please as Angorn Pafir. I am a Wood Elf Ranger Hunter. It does not excuse my behavior but I do not do well within cities and being surrounded by countless people, it seemed to have put me in an awful mood. I may have issues in my past but they will not impact my work for you any longer. I will walk in front trying to keep an eye for any issues.
(OOC what terrain are we in? *crosses fingers* I hope you reply forest. Also my passive perception is 14 in case that can come into play at any time)
(Currently grassland, but there will be forests on the route. And I can check passive perceptions on your sheets. For this, however, roll as you are actively looking not passive)
Zack will follow the cart on foot. He'll stay near the back, feeling that if any direction will be attacked, it'll be from there. Even as he does he tries to psyche everyone up, giving them inspiring words, passing on some generic, but all around good tactical advice that can apply to most situations (Variant human feat: Inspiring Leader - Everyone in the party gains + 6 Temp HP, including Louisa for the max number of targets.)
Even as he goes around, zack tries his best to keep an eye out behind the group, sometimes jogging backwards, but always moving. (Perception check, surveying the area behind the cart for enemies or oddities: 11)
So, what brings you all out here? For me, this is just another stepping stone towards my goal. And as cheesy as this will sound, I want to be a hero to people. Someone everyone can look up to, aspire to be. Someone who can inspire others the same way I was inspired when I was younger. Y'know? he says addressing primarily the 'party' members. Though others were free to respond as well. Zacks sword is always kept at the ready.
Venny is walking beside the second wagon close enough so she can sit down when she need a rest now and then. When sitting down she likes to look at her crystal and how light and the landscape is reflected within it.
To Zack's question on what we do out here the reply is "My family want to move to the capital and I'm going there first to see wheter the move is worth the trouble or not. We haven't been to the capital before. Also how dangerous or safe is the roads there?"
Marcus answers Zack "I am here because I need to put food on my families plates, and Louisa and her brothers pay well for me to sit on my bum leading a horse."
Louisa looks at Venny, "Well, Venny was it? If you are travelling as a family and stick to this main road, you will find that it tends to be very safe. Occasionally bandits might roam it looking for caravans such as this one to steal from but they tend to avoid families as they quite frankly aren't worth their time."
Henricook, flying up in the air, as the day is starting to come to a close and the sun starts to set, you catch sight of a column of smoke and a small fire on the side of the road up ahead. It doesn't seem to be a campfire, in fact, as you get closer it is coming from an overturned cart.
"We will be heading out of the north gate. Leaving an hour after sunrise"
(Maths is slightly off, you only needed to pay 19gp 80sp. And she will throw in the Whetstone for free)
