Aisha simply says Well if you said it, Aisha missed it, where is this 'statue' located, and how do we get there? So that we can get on our way and you can deal with your end.
"The Heroic...Travelers..." Benedict mutters as he writes. Finishing with a flourish, he hands the letter to a scribe nearby, who moves to a desk with the parchment and works on the wax seal. "Not 'statue', 'statues'," he answers Aisha. "They're located to the south...should take you a little over a tenday to reach if you move swiftly."
For Abraxas:
Kayel is this world's patron of strife and war, in a similar vein to Tempus on Toril. His symbol is a crossed spear and sword, and you have seen it carried occasionally by guards throughout the city.
Abraxas shares what he has remembered about Kayel with the others.
"A tenday," he says. "Is that by foot? Would horses be faster?" He considers his gear. "I'll need to pick up some rations. How about you all? How might we prepare?"
Aisha checked her coinpurse, and though it was lighter, she had more than enough for some basic supplies. Yes, this one agree's we should stop for some supplies and head out immediately. The sooner this business is over the sooner we can move to the next. Once again, Aisha is sorry to you all for crrracking the proverbial whip, but time will never be on ourr side. Aisha believes she has enough for a horse of her own, and the rrrations for the trrip. Aisha will also need to find a blind, so that the horse does nyot realize that Tsavi will also be rriding. She will need a blanket so that Tsavi's claws do not pierce her flesh but none of this should be hard to find.
Let us be about it and head out as swiftly as possible.
She says, mentally taking note of where Benedict said Ah.. before this one getsahead of herself, what is the town or village called, or what are the landmarks. You say to the south but you do not specify the where in the south. once Benedict clarifies this, she will move to go collect the supplies she's after. Seekign a horse, a blanket, a rope to secure it, and 20 days of rations., and a horse-blind.
Harmony had listened as it would take them a little over a tenday to get there, then agreeing with Aisha about getting supplies. "It's a good thing then that we had gotten horses when we were going to Turmaether." she said back, smiling. She would also make sure to get the supplies and rations needed for herself and Snow over this journey. Also Harmony would think back and decide to get something that she should have gotten a long while ago, some arrows so she can actually use her shortbow if needed.
(Buying enough rations/needed supplies to last the journey along with at least 25 arrows)
"Unless you plan on riding the horses to death, and buying a new one twice a day, horses aren't going to make the trip any faster," Benedict offers. "They'll make it easier on your feet, carry your things, maybe get you somewhere faster within an hour or so, but beasts get tired same as we do."
Once his scribe has sealed the parchment with wax, he hands it over to one of you. "Make sure you leave the seal intact. That's my symbol...if it's tampered with then whoever you're giving it to might not believe the source. I've written that your words about your nature are to be taken seriously and included a summary of the work that you have done for us as a testament to your abilities," he says.
OOC: Let me know exactly how many days of rations Harmony wishes to purchase. If Abraxas and Garu wish to make any purchases let me know as well, and I will resolve the shopping in the next post.
It can be assumed that Benedict has given you more specific directions, but it will still be up to those in the front rank to lead the way to it.
Abraxas will buy 15 days of rations. He buy or gather any spell components he needs, and if it is possible to buy any new spells, he'll do that as well.
OOC: Added 15 days of rations to Abraxas's inventory and removed 7 gp and 5 sp. Spell scrolls are too rare to be available to purchase in a shop; the best chance of finding them is through adventure.
Added 14 days of rations and 40 arrows to Harmony's inventory and removed 9 gp.
Added a riding horse (14 hit points), blanket, 50 feet of hempen rope, and 20 days of rations to Aisha's inventory and removed 86 gp and 5 sp. Including the blinders with the cost of the horse. A riding saddle and bit and bridle should probably also be purchased, otherwise it would be a pretty rough ride (the others purchased those with their horses as well).
Added 15 days of rations to Garu's inventory and removed 7 gp and 5 sp.
By the time your shopping is done, it is a couple hours until sunset. Also bear in mind that you may need feed for your horses if you are unable to forage for food along the way.
(Then add the saddle n such, i can afford it, as for food... sure add 2 of the horse feed.. I forget what its called but I know its in the adventuring supplies somewhere. Aisha would ultimately suggest resting for the night, and moving at sunup)
Abraxas will also buy feed for his horse. (Thank you, Barty, for managing all that!) He supports Aisha's suggestion of waiting until the morning to leave.
Interested in magic of all kinds, Abraxas will watch Garu's casting, if that is okay.
Garu places her hands on her holy symbol and utters the words in prayer, in her mind's eye seeing the form of a beautiful riding horse. "Come forward, my loyal friend."

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
OOC: Added five days of feed to Abraxas's inventory and removed 2 sp and 5 cp.
I'll assume that Garu's steed is a warhorse, as it's the closest thing to a riding horse that the spell allows (and is more powerful anyway). HP = 21
If everyone is set on equipment and ready to depart Lyrikav in the morning, let's establish a marching order for this trek. As a reminder, the front rank will be responsible for keeping the party on track, while the back rank will be keeping watch for potential danger from behind. The middle rank can be doing any light activity, such as foraging or mapping the route.
Aisha will take the front, and keep a lookout. Passively with her ears, and actively with her eyes. Aisha will suggest someone with enough skill in the middle keep an eye out for food both for the horses and themselves.

"Yes, Benedict," Abraxas says. "Is there teleportation involved? And thank you for the letter of introduction."
