"Okay. Gralk. Let's go. Wolfsong, You coming? I'm going to Barthen’s Provisions to check on the mules and purchase provisions. I will check that I can pick them up early morning tomorrow so I don't pack them round. Then the Orchard. I want to buy some of that cider. Then the smithy if you want. Didn't you want to ask about what they could make? Then that Lionshield Coster for that crossbow. The Miner's Exchange. And back to Alderleaf Farm.
Rinn, TT, Eli, Robwin, You're all welcome to come!"
Eli says, "I'm going to stay here. Ask about the Redbrands, Black Spider and see if I can catch Sildar. I'll meet you all outside Barthen’s Provisions early morning to go."
Blaire purchases two sets of Traveler's clothes that fit "well enough", 25 days rations to split between the three goblins, Ikki and herself, fishing tackle, a whetstone and a healer's kit.
She and Gralk will visit M'aiq and the mules.
When whoever is with them is ready they'll head to the Orchard.
At the Orchard Blaire will get three bottles of cider. (5 sp ea.) And a jar of pickled apples (5 cp ea.) for her and Gralk (and anyone willing to try them).
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
At Lionshield Coster Blaire gets her light crossbow and bolts and a bolt case.
"Ms. Graywind, You mentioned trouble with the redbands. Have you heard anything about someone called Black Spider?" (( Charisma and Intelligence are -1 and disadvantage b/c Ms. Graywind really does not like her mannerisms or her "goblin friend". 3 ))
Yet, Blaire has a keen perception, so at her cold, "Would their be anything else?" Blaire is quick to say, "No, thank you." and "We'll just wait outside." to anyone with her.
At the Miner's Exchange, Ms. Thornton is very helpful accepting 750 gp in as a line of deposit giving Blaire a 'Z note' as proof. Hasn't heard of a black spider among, " ... the 'Redbrands, dear' but they are getting to be a problem in their own right. I will keep my ears open and let you know what I find out..."
Then back to Alderleaf farm with a gift of cider for Qelline Alderleaf and one for Ikki. And lunch and a good run with the wolves and goblins. And listening to Gralk and Carp.
While joyous and prideful about the successful hunt Wolfsong is rendered speechless at the amount of coin TT hands him, “This is a far greater sum than I have ever seen, I thank you for this.”
At TT’s mention of looking for enchanted items Wolfsong pipes up, “Endure said they know how to do enchantments they may have something that you could find useful, and if not could at least point us to someone who does.”
Wolfsong then turns to Blaire, “Would be a good reason to see them again before the tenday when our items would be finished."
Before leaving with Blaire Wolfsong will turn to Eli, “Might be wise to check with the townmaster too, if the Redbrands have been as much trouble as it sounds someone should have brought word to him.”
Anyone who kept up with Blaire are invited to a small and hardy meal of bread, cheese, herbed butter and cured meats with "Call me gramps." Alderleaf, "Alderleaf farm matron" Qelline, Carp, two other farm hands (Ned human female and Mat halfling male), Ikki and the goblins.
"Never thought I'd break bread with so many strange folk. All good workers and hunters though without question.", is gramps only comment.
"That's gramps for 'Thank you' ", says Carp resulting in some chuckles
The Apple Cider from Blaire is opened and a small tumbler is offered to each.
"We still have a lot of work to do here."
"That's mum for 'Get back to work.' ", says Carp resulting in chuckles and a big hug and ruffling of his hair from Qelline. "Mum!", from Carp. Giggles from Gralk and a very ears to neck read embarrassed halfling boy.
Endure is working on tightening some hides on forms set up at the north facing side of the workshop when you arrive. "Hey, Endure, I brought you some cider from Edermath Orchard. Sort of 'thank you' for helping out short notice this morning and 'sorry' 'bout the bear thing.", Blaire starts as she walks in but gradually slows as her mind is catching up with her eyes. "Wow!", she half whispers. Gralk next to her giggles. Endure watching Blaire, an eyebrow slowly rising, smirks at catching the young lady so effortlessly and genuinely smiles at Gralk's reaction.
"Good afternoon, Blaire, Wolfsong", to Gralk, "little one. I didn't get your name."
As they finish the tie they were working on they wipe their hands and brow on a rag.
"And did you bring me another customer?"
"Welcome to Endure's Leather. Let's step to my yard table, shall we? They grab a sleeveless blouse, toss it over their half halter and pull their long black braid out over the collar to fall down their back.
TT, Endure is tall, broad and muscled they are wearing dark green canvas style trousers tied at the sides in a cross panel fashion that allows for their tail. They have a laced leather wrapping on their elongated foot and thigh that would look like a high boot until you noticed the lack of a heel and their cloven hooves.
After offering you all seats on benches and stools next to a long outdoor table, they ask, "What can I do for you?"
TT gives the rather tall individual a once over, with an air of surprise. "Hello there! Wolfsong said you may have some magic items for sale or possibly would know where we might find some."
"I do have a small number of items. I typically do enchantment on commission. I know of a shop in Neverwinter that has a selection of items on hand. Do you know what you are looking for?", Endure asks
Robwin is probably set for supplies, but he will follow along with the group heading towards Endure and the enchanted items...
To be honest, his first thought when he has a day to kill was Elsa, but she said she’d be sleeping now and working later, so maybe he’d just catch up with her when he sees her or later this evening.
When TT talks about priorities, Robwin will agree, “Yes, I think heading after Gundren is the most pressing. And weren’t all the Big Spider and goblin leads heading that way too??... ...I’m concerned about the red brands, but that all seems to be hearsay for now.... ...At least with Gundren, there is a real person in imminent peril!”.
When some of the party catch up with Endure, Robwin will enquire about magic items. “The thing I want more than anything is a ring of spell storing but i feel like that’s not the kind of thing you deal in... Or it may be beyond my means anyway! Have you heard of such a thing?.”.
"I didn't catch your name, young one.", Endure responds to Robwin
"A ring of spell storing; now that would take time and materials. I would have to borrow Thagren's fordge too. Easily eight to twelve thousand gold for that. It's an ambitious item too. How did you hear of it?"

Blaire at Barthen’s Provisions:
"Hey, Sarah, right? Hi! Can I buy provisions for a trip and pick them up early morning tomorrow? Like crack of dawn?"
"If we have them sure? Are you taking your cart?", Sarah
(( if others came along, Blaire's going to ask their opinion. ))

Eli literally stays around the Inn the day. Speaking with the locals and with Sildar Hallwinter a lot about Griffon Cavalry and Lords' Alliance.
TT is happy to share her intent

Eli nods to Wolfsong before the party breaks up for the day. He does include a trip to the townmaster's house. Runs into Sildar there.
Let me know what other interactions, if any, TT, Wolfsong, Rinn or Robwin have with the party or townsfolk in our "day in Phandalin" montage.
