Wilick turns to the others. "My name's Wilick. I am from the Ivyheart. I am here for personal reasons, but the cash will help me along my way." He pauses for a moment. "I have been thinking about the mention of lycanthropy. Just remember, these people don't have control over themselves once they change. It's not there fault what is happening. It would be great if we could find some way to help them. Also, if we do end up having to fight, whatever you do, try not to get bit. This will spread faster than rabies. They tend to show a weakness for silver too. I don't suppose any of you brought your best cutlery along with you?"
"My name's Averet Jury. I'm a student of Flux Academy, which is located in the Capital of Aaum. Would any of you happen to know how far Aaum is from here?"
"I am sure we can acquire a few weapons made of silver when we shop for horse's, at least I hope we can. As for Aaum, I am unfamiliar with it but I know Westruun is located in the northern middle part of the land, if that helps you at all."
"Shop for horses? I don't know about you, but I don't exactly have the money to buy a horse. Basically what you see is what you get." Wilick raises his arms slightly and turns slowly.
Hearing Shadow speak about Aaum, Averet gives a gentle nod before turning back to the others. "I'm not too familiar with Westruun but wouldn't they have some kind of horse carriage service? If there are any present, they could at least take us halfway to our destination if we can't find affordable horses."
Grindal nods along with Wilick as he explains his knowledge of lycanthropes. "Aye, silver, prick 'em with a silvered weapon and ye get yerselfs a nice lycan stew," Grindal says, pretending he knew that information as well.
"Bah!"he shouts when Xebrek starts introductions. "Grindal Goblinbane. I fought and killed more lycanthropes than ye ever read about, and I'll fight and kill even more yet afore they bite any of us."
His gaze passes slowly over his new companions, settling over Shadow for a long moment before continuing.
"Bah! Durned horses are too big for me outside of Kraghammer. And if an old soldier can make the trip on foot ye bet yer arse the rest of ye can do it too."
"Indeed, I don't have the coin to spend on horses or carriages right now. If there isn't anything we need to buy, should we head out now? Well, now that I've said that, we should probably get some rations to last us through the week. I can supply us with water, so no need to worry about that."
Averet gives off a light laugh before speaking. "Well, let's get to buying some rations then! I can also use this opportunity to learn a bit more of the area I'm in."
Xebrek smiles a little nervously, "Silver seems a little pricey to me, unfortunately." He looks to the others. "I have some foodstuffs already, but perhaps some checking around town for some hearsay wouldn't be a bad idea. I'm new to town, like some of you, so I'm not too caught up on the local gossip."
(Shall we move on to going into town to buy things/gather info?)
If you're just buying rations we can say you did that and move straight to travel. If you want to gather info in Westruun, where do you want to go? It's a bit past midday at the moment.
On the way to the market I will keep a watch out for certain symbols and then when I see one I will excuse myself from the group. "Friends I have something to take care real quick before we take off, not to mention I need to get some food for the trip just so I will meet you at the town exit on the road to Turst Fields."

Look for a symbol for The Clasp and then try and gain any information about this drug and who might be selling it and if they know of any organization that might be behind the trouble. Also by chance if they have any silver dragons I can borrow for the time being.
Grindal, with enough food to last for a tenday, waits (im)patiently for the rest of his new companions to prepare for the journey. Milling about the entrance to the town, he paces back and forth, kicking rocks and scowling at the occasional passerby.
Wilick waits for the others near the edge of town and looks for signs of Saraa. He has enough rations to last a while and is happy to forage along the way.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Xebrek would spend a short while talking with people who don't mind explaining to people new to town as to any current goings on. (Basically a generic gathering latest info to see if there's any recent gossip that might be related to their case. Can roll a Charisma check if you'd like, it may just come back with nothing, though.) If there isn't much that'll help, he'll move to head out with the others.
@Wilick Once you get to the edge of town near where you told Saraa to wait it doesn't take very long before she finds you and sits down to wait by your side.
@Xebrek You're able to find people who fill you in about some general goings-on in the area. You hear about some missing plainscows, growing concern about Ravagers, and one older woman complains that she's been having nightmares recently. However, it seems that the general population of Westruun is not up to date on recent events in the Turst Fields so you don't hear anything that sounds immediately relevant to your current interests.

(Oh wow, just checked my sheet and I have more rations than I thought haha. I'm alright on food for now.)

@Jonpawl Check your PMs
Wilick waits for the others near the edge of town and looks for signs of Saraa. He has enough rations to last a while and is happy to forage along the way.
[OOC: Sorry work was bothering me, answered it for now.]
Evelyn would also wait near the entrance of the town when she realises that she does, indeed, have enough food to last a tenday.
Averet will buy as many rations as he can before meeting up with the others who are already prepared.
Xebrek would spend a short while talking with people who don't mind explaining to people new to town as to any current goings on. (Basically a generic gathering latest info to see if there's any recent gossip that might be related to their case. Can roll a Charisma check if you'd like, it may just come back with nothing, though.) If there isn't much that'll help, he'll move to head out with the others.
