Stannic joins the others outside the gate, leaning against his new carved staff and absently scratching the head of one of the oxen hitched to the wagon. He looks up at the dwarves “So what will we find to the north” he waves his hand “no, no. I am not asking where your map leads. You have already told us it was a secret, but what trouble are we likely to find along the way?”
@ Gimble, On the way out of the Stonehill Inn, You let the party know you are going to go to the stables to see what sort of mount you could purchase for this trip. It does not take you very long to get to the stables, and you don't really depart from the party since the stables is on the way to the city gates. Once you get there You see a Gith woman tending to the various animals in the stables. They are mostly horses but you see some bird creatures as well as some dogs. She turns to look at you, as you enter the stables, the Gith woman stops what she's doing and approaches you. Ademia Strom: (to Gimble) "Hello there, how can I help you?" (OOC: if you do not want to RP this, Let me know what mount you would like, if you don't know I will play out this rp as it would serve to explain what mounts are available.)
@ Stannic, Once everyone is on the outside the city gate, (OOC: any and all extra rps completed) You ask the two dwarves your question. Gundren Rockseeker: (to everyone) "Well, all the dangers around the city I suppose. Bandits, Goblins for sure since I was attacked and captured by them, Orcs invading the northern part of the Kingdom, and whoever/whatever is behind that "drow" woman we encountered in the goblins castle. I don't expect us to be specifically targeted, all the same I wanted a proper escort this time. I'm gonna take us through the main roads and trails, As we will be going through the Triboar Trail as we go North. Would be silly to try to go around it. Besides harder for unfriendlies to see us in the Triboar Trail." (OOC: As the triboar trial is a sizable forested area that contains some small towns, the former red brand bandit base, and more.) Gundtren continues. "I won't say where exactly we are going but when we reach our destination we'll meet the rest of my company, which includes my brothers. between you four and the company we should be safe. Its a shame this kingdom's roads are so unsafe. I hope since we are heading north it should be somewhat safer since the kingdom's knights are suppose to be protecting and patrolling for Orc invaders."
(OOC: the @ stannic, is for stannic, but since everyone is there, you can all hear the conversation. If a character has a to everyone dialog bubble it means that everyone present should be able to hear.)

“Goblins, orcs, bandits, drow. Child’s play,” Gimble jokes after hearing Gundren’s answer. He shifts to keep a bolt loaded and his daggers at the ready.
@ Gimble (OOC: are you looking to buy one or rent one?)

Buy
@ Gimble, (OOC: it costs 25 gold pieces. if you have access to the mastiff stat block, make sure to reference it. If you do not, let me know when you need to know that information and I can relay it to you. The one you are buying is only trained as a mount, so it would not fight unless it gains training, and in self defense. So while it has a bite attack, it will not go out of its way to bite unless an enemy engages with it first.)

(OOC: what have we decided guys? Split it 4 or 3 ways? By the way, I am updating the spreadsheet with items that we had; I can't change the old one, so I have created another: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/172mtwBxlLIoUuJLVqLARdzdhtFWlRh_-Ba6yF0XqmRE/edit?usp=sharing please check and let me know your comments)
@ Casmir/everyone (OOC: In attempt to help with the inventory management I will remind that the party sold: 7 shortswords, 7 studded leather armors, 7 red brand bandit outfits, 11 leather armors, 14 shields, 1 butcher's apron, 1 goblin clothing, 8 scimitars, 11 shortbows, 367 arrows, a shiny gold elf figurine (not properly identified), a golden chalice, a golden knife, a golden censer, Lhupo's robes, 1 cask of alcohol, 9 long swords, 4 longbows, 9 chain mail armors, 5 spears, 4 morningstars, 2 greatswords, 1 heavy crossbow, 1 Emberhorn Kingdom long sword, 1 javelin, and 1 hide armor.
Stannic has the engraved and feathered quarterstaff, the party has 3 potions of healing, since Casmir drank one during the adventure at the castle. And your post has the recent money splits. I will also mention the party has 2 unidentified scrolls, not sure how theres 3 identified scrolls in the inventory. feel free to remind/correct me on that. plus the party just received 25 gold pieces each [one for each party member] from Gundren. Gimble just bought himself a Mastiff to serve as a mount. I don't want to micro manage the party's inventory, this post is just to help you all, so you do not have to go through 100s of pages of the story thread.)

(OOC Thanks man, sounds great)
(OOC: Fantastic, that's super-helpful. I HAVE been going through the pages trying to get the inventory right :), now I'll update the sheet with that. The 100 GP "from Gundren" reflected the 25 / PC but since that's already allocated I'll take it out. All the item info came from the old spreadsheet, I am not sure where the scrolls came from originally. I can replace them with the unidentified ones, makes sense for everyone?)
@ Casmir, (OOC: you can leave the identified scrolls for now, I think they might be from the bandit base. I will check and get back to everyone and say for sure if they are or not.)

All this looks great
@ Casmir, (OOC: yes, the three identified scrolls; augery, charm, and fireball are from the bandit base, as well as the potion of invisibility. my mistake for not remembering where they are from. so the inventory should be reconciled, its just a matter of deciding whether the party is splitting the gold from selling the equipment three ways or four.)

(I am all for splitting 4 ways and assuming Misty took her share before leaving. It makes sense for the story. But I am fine with whatever. Stannic is at the wagon and ready to move on.)
@ everyone, (OOC: i will update the story soon. Last call for any last minute activities before we leave the city.)

@ everyone, With everyone meeting at the north gate the wagon gets moving. The four of you escort the wagon and the two dwarves riding and driving the wagon. You leave the city, passing by the farms and homes outside the city walls and head towards the Triboar Trail. In the past the party as traveled along one of the various dirt roads leading to different locations, this time you are following the main road. After eight hours of travel, Gundren stops the wagon, Gundren: (to the party) "I think we should stop soon..." He looks around. "There!" He points at a sign. The sign indicates that the town of Conyberry. There are also signs from the Emberhorn Kingdom saying mandatory evactuation due to Orc Raiders. "We can stop at that town for the night." Gundren shifts the wagon and the oxen to start moving on the dirt road towards Conyberry.
@ everyone, (OOC: what do you do?)

“Orc raiders,” Gimble says. “Keep your eyes, ears, and noses open. I wonder how long ago that sign was posted.”
Perception 18
"I am not sure if my nose will be any help, but I'm keeping it open, too!"
Perception: 17
Stannic eyes the sign announcing the mandatory evacuation “Orc Raiders” he murmurs “If the Kingdom ordered an evacuation, there may not be many left in town. Let’s see if they will welcome visitors.” He will also watch for any woodland creatures that may be nearby. If he spots one, he will try to communicate and ask if there are any Orcs around.
