The Smithy
"Hundreds, once," the smith replies. He walks over to a barrel and opens it, revealing it is filled with a variety of different kinds of arrows, and begins fishing out sheaf arrows. "Now, it is closer to a hundred, at best. Few visit here, as we are so far from the other side. Just the traders from Khur who help keep us stocked with essentials; everything else we make ourselves. We are an outpost, at best; a former shadow of one of the largest and greatest towns of Silvanesti."

He finishes and closes the barrel. "I have thirty sheaf arrows remaining. They are a silver a piece. I can make more, given enough time."

The Stable
"Three steel for each bit and bridle," the stablemaster says, after a moment of thinking it over. "A pack saddle is 10 steel, 20 for a riding saddle."

The General Store
The merchant seems to calm down a bit at the kender's departure, and smooths out her hair and clothes. "That's better," she says, no longer squeaking. "Now then, what can I help you with?" she asks.

Center of Town
Locky heads to the center of the town, which has long since been abandoned. Only the area near the docks has any activity. Here, the buildings are boarded up and no people are around.

Kicking her heels again Locky wanders round taking a look here and there. "Dull dull....." Why did they throw her out? Bored she wanders back to the inn alone.

"I will take them all, I don't suppose you have a quiver?" He asks, handing over 3 steel.

"Did anyone of note decide to stay? Apart from your good self, all towns need a Smithy." He smiles, "Would there happen to be one of the magical arts? And a temple, possibly to E'li?" He asks with a smile.

"We are looking for clothing that is suitable for traveling in the forest," Imani says. "That includes clothing for the kender that just left."

The Smithy
The smith finds an old quiver and puts the thirty arrows into them, before handing them over to the mage. He accepts the three steel.

"We have a temple, but it is dedicated to the Blue Phoenix, not E'li," he says. "The only wizard I know is our governor, Lord Oliethian Eowerillion. He is a dabbler, though; never took his Test."

The General Store
"The only clothing I have in stock was made for Silvanesti." She looks the two women over. "You are both small and slender; there may be something that fits you. But we have no children here. There haven't been any since the nightmare started. That means we don't have any clothing that would fit a kender at all."

Malika shrugs. "I'm only interested in some boots, really."

The storekeeper nods. "That's easy enough then. Let me see what I can dig up."

The Morning Dew Inn
Locky returns to the inn to find it completely empty of people save the bartender, who frowns at the sight of her, but says nothing--and Aleaha, who has just finished her drink at the bar.

=========

Jerrard pays 3 steel for 30 sheaf arrows and a second quiver.

"I'll take a look at the clothing," Imani says to the shop keep. Locky was just sort of out of luck it seemed.

To Babushka, Jeremy says, "Well, perhaps we should head back and let them know what's available and how much it costs."

At the Smithy.

"Ahh, we came across some items on our travels, some of which is high quality armor, such as the Plate my friend carries." He says, motioning to Thuskar, "Do either of you require weapons?" He adds

"Hi" Locky says to Aleaha with a wave. "Why does no one like my People? I mean I can't help it if I find things, People shouldnt be so careless!" Giving the Elf a smile she jumps on a seat next to her.

"You know, we could really do with a guide, someone to help us through the Forest, and if you protect it you could help."

"Could I have some fruit juice?" She asks the Barkeeper, her little legs dangling off the chair.

"Please?" She adds, "I don't suppose anyone might know someone to tell me what a few magical things are.....?"

The Smithy
"No, I'm good," Ulster says.

"Same here," Thuskar agrees.

The General Store
Malika finds a pair of boots that fit easily enough and purchases them for two steel. Up until this point, she's been completely barefoot this whole time.

Imani finds something far more modest than what she's been wearing lately. It's all men's clothing, but as it was designed for elves, it fits her well enough. It includes green pants, shirt, tabard and cloak. Not only does it cover her up, but it provides decent camouflage in a place like the forest.
It doesn't come cheap, though. The storekeeper asks 6 steel for the whole outfit.

The Morning Dew Inn
Aleaha purses her lips before responding. "And what do you offer me for my services to escort you through the forest?" she asks.

"I do know of a Wizard of Solinari; a kirath like me. He does not like kender, though. Or humans. Or gnomes." She chuckles to herself. "For that matter, he is not too fond of other Silvanesti. But if I vouch for you, he would agree to see you."

"Well." Locky shrugs "What would you want from me?" She asks, "I have money, and I would pay your friend for his help." She gives a big smile. "I want to get home."

"Someone else who doesnt Kender." She giggles, "Would he see me? My friend is a Wizard too, a White Robed one, would he see him too?"

"I have no use for money," Aleaha says. "But perhaps a favor, to be returned someday. And he does not like humans, either. But if I vouch for him, he will meet with your mage. I can't promise he'll be very polite about it, though."

After a thought, she adds, "Where is home for you?"

"I'm happy to do anything!" She smiles, wrapping her arms around the Elf. "Home? Well my home Church is in Palanthas, but I never really had a home."

"He'd like Jerrard, hey can we go and get him and bring the things now?" She asks, still waiting for her Fruit Juice.

The bartender brings the juice, asking for a whole silver piece as payment.

"Right now?" Aleaha asks patiently. "He lives in the forest; remember, I said he was kirath, like me. We will have to seek him out first. Is your group ready to depart right now?"

"Oh....." She lowers her head, "No not yet, I will go and get them and tell them what is going on." She smiles sipping her drink her legs swinging still.
