Roxaria nods understandingly. ”I appreciate your input. I now agree that she ought to know. I wasn’t sure how she would have taken it after her near-death experience. I’ll go below-decks and give let her know.”
She seals up the letter and makes her way below decks to the quarters Eline is currently occupying. She knocks on the door and announces her presence, ”Eline, it’s Roxaria.” The Glassblade gives a courteous minute prior to entering. She sees Trem and Eline and nods, acknowledging them both as she pulls the sealed envelope out and hands it to Eline. “That Pirate Captain…well, it seems that he was colluding with your father. That is my guess, at least.” Roxaria leans over the bed and points a slender, elven finger near the bottom of the contract where the signature “M. Rygr” is located. She steps back after pointing it out and bites her lower lip, watching Eline’s reaction.

Eline takes the note carefully, and reads through it. She reads it again, and again, and again. Yes, it was him. It was him, without a doubt. She knew that scrawling penmanship any day--had memorized its shape and script. It was without question the man who used to be her father. She reads the note a few more times, silent and seething. "I'm going to keep this," she announces. "It's him. It's him, Roxaria." She sets the note aside on the bed, and attempts to sit up.
"Trem was right," she looks at the roguish elf, affection in her eyes, then turning back to Roxaria, "I was reckless back there. It...nearly killed me, but for Kha and Trem." She looks down at the floor. "I wish I was stronger, like you guys. I wish I could do more! The more I think about it, the more it becomes clear to me that I don't have the power or strength to fight Mikhail. I wanted to prove that I could fight like you, but..you know the rest."
She looks up again, and reaching over, squeezes Trem's hand. She looks Roxaria in the eyes. "I hate my father for what he did to me. I want nothing more than to exact justice. If he is somehow involved in all of this--and it seems like he is--would you help me? Trem? Roxi? Not to forget to mention Kha and Reginald as well."
Her eyes mist over, emotion strong and weighty in her chest.
Roxaria places a hand on Eline’s shoulder, “Of course I will, Eline. Regarding your concern about not being helpful: You are helpful and as you grow and learn more of your craft, In sure you will become even more helpful and powerful. Patience is the key. I’ll let you get rest. I’m going back on deck and help clean up.”
Eline smiles at Roxaria, giving her hand a squeeze. "Thank you, Roxi. And I'll try to be a little more patient with myself. See you soon." She turns to Trem, her emerald green eyes resting upon his. "And thank you, Trem. I...I love it, the dagger, I mean." Holding it up, she takes a look at it, admiring it's craftsmanship.
She gestures for everyone to follow her. As your walking she says "There are 2 people you should see. The first is Orvo Mustave. He has traveled before with Urgon Wenth on numerous occasions. The second is the Buyer. As soon as you have found the cure bring it to the Buyer. He can teleport the cure immediately to Palebank Village" She tells the directions to their tents to the party.

Roxaria follows Morgo to the yurt she offered them, hefting her adventuring belongings and pack. Once they are at the yurt she steps inside to look it over and finds a spot to drop her stuff off. She turns to Morgo and thanks her. Looking around the yurt and knowing that it was previously occupied she takes stock of whatever is in there that might be useful for the party.

“Well, let’s take a quick load off and visit this Orvo and see what information they can reveal to us.” Roxaria gets her shield and slings it over her back, like a turtle shell. She looks over her longsword and sheathes it and waits for everyone to be ready to visit Orvo. She loosens the bowstring on her longbow and covers it in weatherproof cloth and bundles it with her quiver and bedroll, tying it into a sling to hang over her back and shoulder so it doesn’t get caught on anything while traveling. She waits for the rest of the group to prepare themselves and when ready heads to Orvo’s yurt with the group.
The sound of wind and the biting cold die down as you enter the yurt. A cold fire pit marks the center of the hide-covered floor. An open crate containing packaged rations and a few other items stands next to the door.
Roxaria finds that the crate contains 50 days of rations, a 50-foot silk rope, a blanket, a grappling hook, a miner’s pick, and a book titled Adventure Sexy: Impress Potential Lovers with Great Deeds by Scanlan Shorthalt.
Roxaria blushes when she picks up the book and thumbs through the pages. She skirts her eyes to see if anyone is observing or if they’re preoccupied and she makes a quick seat snd starts reading the first several pages of the book. The author’s name is not lost on her.
As she continues reading the saucy pages she loosens her collar as she blushes even more.
Roxaria slams the book shut and guiltily hugs it against herself, covering it up. “I, um, nothing important. Just a book, really. A novel I found while looking around the place.” She blushes even hotter feeling guilty that she was caught even reading it.
Roxaria quickly stands up and moves to the door, still hugging the book, “We should really get moving and talk to Orvo. I’ll just wait outside. It’s a little warm in here with everyone crowded around.”
She casts her gaze to the floor and hastily makes her way out of the yurt.
"Agreed. No point in sitting around when we need to you find you two a cure."Kha watches the reddened elf quickly make her way out the door. The orc chuckles inwardly and follows outside.

3 days pass and and everyone arrives in Syrinlya the port outpost in the largest island Foren of Eiselcross.
Why thank you! Trem replies. I can tell why Urgon liked this place! He uses the same jovial voice as Morgo does.

Let's go find this Orvo. We're a bit in a hurry!

Trem rolled a 6 for Perception so he doesn't see a thing. He's just waiting impatiently.

"What is that you got there, Roxaria?", asks the gnome. "Is it a guide of some sort?" He stands on his tip toes to see what she is lloking at.
Cats go Moo!

(Does anyone take the supplies found or will it be left in the crate?)
