((Faineant left after getting our reward from Elro.))

 ((I missed that somehow. Whoops. I'll edit my earlier post.))

"Alright then, if there are no other requests..." Elro trails off, going to get the Healer's Kit.

"Rations or weapons would be nice, if those are available?" 

"I will take a healing kit too, please, if you have enough," Thistle calls after him.

Sanjay, standing patiently in the corner of the room. "I never thought I would ever venture this far north. This is going to be an adventure, for sure. Elro, forgive me if I missed it, but when did you say our boat would be taking us north?"

As Elro grabs 2 Healers Kits and a weeks worth of rations, he replies "Tomorrow morning; we have to move quickly."

He hands one Healer's Kit to Senine and the other to Thistle, saying "That's 5 gp."  Then he gives the rations to Salem, "That'll be 3 gp,5 sp."

Senine nods her thanks, putting the healer's kit in her pack. 

Thistle takes the healer's kit and adds it to her bag.

Now that Elro has collected payment and given you the supplies you've requested, he bids you a good afternoon and says to show up just after sunrise in the morning at the docks.

((This is your last opportunity to do anything before the next day...))

With nothing else to do and with everything going on, Senine dismisses herself wishing the rest of the group a good day, and returns to the tavern. She stops at the bar to purchase another bottle, then heads up to her room, removing her armor and setting her shield and weapon next to the bed, she sits down on the floor and opens up the bottle taking a swig. She spends the rest of her day there, drinking in silence and thinking about everything that had happened in the short time since she'd arrived in the North. The people dead and dying from the Frozen Woe, as well as Tulgi and Hulil, who she fully planned on bringing in.

Sanjay goes back to his room in the hotel, makes it more homey with druidcraft and sirens the afternoon journaling about his adventures thus far.

He'll be awake and ready to go at the docks the next morning.

Having had a bottle of alcohol to herself with little to eat, Senine needs to make a constitution check.

Thistle will return to her room during this time. She will spend some time studying the map as well as making adjustments to her prosthetic hand to make sure it's still functioning properly. She will meet the rest of the group by the docks early the next morning.

Salem pays Elro and thanks them, heading off to their room to sleep.

Senine did not set herself up well, what with not having much to eat, and though she is used to drink, this morning she wakes up with a headache and a little behind the others.

The rest of the party is bright-eyed as you all head to the docks, the cold morning air heavy with the hush just before a breaking dawn, the icy water seemingly still.

Two ships wait at the docks, and as you all stand there, quietly anticipating Elro's arrival, you hear footsteps on the ships deck behind you.  Elro has appeared, and is walking down, heading to you with a stranger in tow.

"Good morning," he says.  "Before I do anything else, please let me introduce you to Alminar.  After Faineant left your party, I couldn't help but think you could use another hand, and Alminar here was very willing." He gestures at the half-elf next to him.

"Now, I have arranged passage to Eiselcross for you all on the Remorhaz, this sailing ship behind us here.  It is owned and operated by the Glassblades, whom you know I trust.  You will be taken to Syrinlya, an Uthodurnian outpost on Foren which is Eiselcross’s largest island. Once you're there, talk to a dwarf named Orvo Mustave.  He has been on numerous expeditions into the wilds of Eiselcross with Urgon Wenth.  He should have, at the very least, clues of where to look.  Once you've found the cure - because I know you will, you can use whatever you need if that situation arises, but the rest will need to be given to an elf in Syrinlya who goes by the name “the Buyer.”  You can tell the Buyer to teleport the cure to me, here."  Elro looks at the group. 

"Do you have any questions?"

A half elf, lean but tall stands next to Elro. His dark hair and pale skin highlight the tired look on his face,  but he seems eager... or perhaps anxious to engage in conversation. 

"Greetings. I was told by Elro that you all may need a hand in your journey. I am looking for work and hope my skill set can be of use to you."

Senine gives Elro a shrug, not having any questions, then turns to look at the newcomer. She nods to him, putting her hand forward to shake his in greeting. "Senine(sen-in-ay) Bonecutter. Welcome." she says a little gruffly, before mutter something about dog hair and taking a swig from her flask.

Sanjay reaches a hand out towards Alminar to shake and says, "I'm Sanjay. Nice to meet you." Then looking to Elro, Sanjay asks, "Is Orvo expecting us?"

"As far as I'm aware, Orvo is not expecting you, but I assure you that he is a friendly lad. There will be someone to greet you when you arrive however.  Is everyone ready?" replies Elro.
