Harmony was so happy to see that they were back outside, thankful for the sun and then seeing that their horses have been taken care of. "Thank you so much for the advice and taking care of our horses!" she had said back, smiling.
Before the kobold has finished counting the coins, more have swarmed around it to bicker and grab at them. Leaving them to quibble, Mro Jus Bur starts moving and preparing the horses for travel. Mro Jus Bir finishes a thought in his book, and closes it. "Well, my friends? Where to? I dare say our journey back to Lyrikav has been made slightly more difficult by our new companions," he says, motioning to the weary but freed prisoners who are looking warily toward the party for direction.
"Lyrikav? Yes," Abraxas says. "I would," he says, "like to rest. Ponder my spell book a moment or two. Review some things." Abraxas puts one foot in the stirrups and slings his leg over his horse. He checks his book bags and thanks the kobolds again.
Harmony also offers her horse to a prisoner while she would walk besides them. She nods, agreeing with Simeon on getting supplies and then going to Lyrikav after.
The kobolds, still arguing over who gets a share of the coins, barely pay attention to the question. Mro Jus Bir, however, clears his throat and leans in.
"My friends, you have a perfectly good guide right here. And unfortunately, we are quite remote. The only other establishments to purchase supplies would be the village of Raki, which is as far to the southwest as Lyrikav is to the west. However, the travel there might be easier, as we can skirt between the Mannaz Tundra and the Obsidian Peaks to get there. But alas, that would also increase our time to reach Lyrikav and get these poor souls to their respite," he says.
Abraxas looks around him and realizes what' s going on. He too switches with one of the prisoners, walking beside the horse while the other person rides. "Let's double check our supplies, but if the distance is about the same, I suggest heading directly to Lyrikav," he says.
"As long as the terrain is hospitable, we can forage and hunt for meals as well", Garu states. "If it is longer, then let's keep on in getting these folks home."

OOC: Let's establish a marching order for the way back, since there is going to be foraging involved. At least one person must be in the lead rank. Everyone else that wants to forage along the way can be in the middle rank - the more people foraging, the higher the likelihood of finding food. Mro Jus Bir and Mro Jus Bur can also forage if you would like them to.
Harmony had heard Bir, nodding and agreeing with the others about going straight to Lyrikav. She would be in the middle and help forage as best as she can, trying to cheer up the prisoners with some cheery songs along the way too.
Simeon (+7 Survival) volunteers to take on the role of forager. "My childhood years with the old gnome gave me ample practice in hunting and gathering."
Abraxas will walk in the first third. He'd like to learn more about hunting and gathering by watching Simeon while being able to hear Harmony's song. To really understand foraging he'll try it as well.
Sustaining the extra travelers proves quite difficult, and causes the trip back to Lyrikav to slow greatly when the horses run out of feed and must be allowed time to graze and drink along the way. Abraxas learns much from Simeon throughout the first tenday, but has much more difficulty when the party crosses into the Mannaz Tundra. Luckily, Simeon and Mro Jus Bur display their expertise even in such frigid wilderness, and they are able to find just enough to sustain the group through the difficult terrain.
The freed captives take on a more healthy pallor through the first few days, but a tenday in the tundra is tough on them, warmed only by the limited equipment of the group and Harmony's music. Garu leads you through the tundra well, however, and after two tendays of travel, the city of Lyrikav grows on the horizon. The weather warms along with the prisoners' smiles at the sight of their home city, sunny but slightly abated by the wind blowing in from the cold ocean to the north.

Upon entering Lyrikav, Simeon does what he can to ensure each of the freed prisoners returns home or finds lodging, including a good meal and suitable drink. He will spend his gold to do so.
After assisting the prisoners and finding lodging for himself, Simeon makes his way to the Order of Skogyr, hoping to learn something about the strange marbles he came to possess while in Turmaether. He is open to selling or bartering the scrolls of ogre and owl bear summoning.
Harmony would have helped to make sure the prisoners got home or would have some place to stay for the night as well. Then she would have made sure to get herself a room at the Hallowsong, letting the bards there know that she wanted to perform later in the evening. After that, she would have gone to the Order too, remembering the agate gemstones she got in Wysto as she was curious about how useful they actually are. She is also willing to sell or trade all the scrolls of orge and own bear summoning too.

"Yes," Abraxas says. "Thank you for caring for our horses."

Simeon, likewise, will go on foot while a prisoner rides his horse. "After supplies, then Lyrikav," he suggests.
"Lyrikav? Yes," Abraxas says. "I would," he says, "like to rest. Ponder my spell book a moment or two. Review some things." Abraxas puts one foot in the stirrups and slings his leg over his horse. He checks his book bags and thanks the kobolds again.
