The evening arrives when discussion of the next move must be held.
Some speak of returning to the lair of the mammoth for either looting and retribution, others for enlightenment and clarification.
There are voices for continuing the harvesting of the ankheg armor and starting a profitable venture right here.
Others speak of the original purpose of their excursion to find out the reason for the loss of contact with Herne's kin. A obligation they were paid in advance to finish.
Alaric adds "I understand the fascination with the mammoth and believe me I'd love more chitin. But as far as I'm concerned, we got the prisoners to safety and we still have a job that needs fulfilling. We can still come back later if we so desire."
"I say we finish the contract we've taken, then we can check back with the mammoth. It is intelligent, yes? And able to speak? Perhaps under less confrontational environments we can simply 'ask' it what is going on? We might be able to gain favor by brining it some food it wouldn't be able to get but would enjoy?"
With his new spear, Vor jumps out of the wagon and surveys the recent ruins for signs of life: anything moving or lurking in the area of either the camp or the work area around the entrance.

Not entering any buildings at first, Sandow want to scan the general repair and condition of things. Does it look like the buildings were not maintained in some time, or does it look like a weather event destroyed them. Are there signs of battle? Hacked-up doors, arrows, etc. Are the buildings burned?

let the discussion begin.
Belthran is immensely pleased with his new shield and absently traces it with a finger as the discussion weaves back and forth.
His own 2 coppers worth, he submits, is that "We were commissioned, and we are thus honour-bound to fulfil that commission."

“Yes, we must fulfill our agreement with Herne first; but then ...” Vrajitor is determined to get to the bottom of the giant mammoth conundrum.
