Gur Chuck-Chuck stands near the merchants bazaar outside the Red Dragon Inn, waiting for the others to catch up and pick up any gear. Gur will buy rations for the trip (10), and two waterskins.

"I ad'ise ya get yurselv some food for the trip. Allimon is a series of miles up the road. It'll take some amount of resources just to make the trip, but theres a number of tiny watering holes along the way. Once we get there, it'll take a little while I guess to find where this assistant is. 'ince nobody left a name."

Gregorian folows the rest to the market place, and listens to their exchange about a donkey. "A fine idea!" he says, agree and then going into action, imediately walking up to one of the nearest marketeers and asking for directions, and with a smile and an exchance of a silver or two comes back.

"Aye, there are a couple of dealers that sell donkeys, mules and other beast of burden. The first is a little that way" he points in the appropriate direction. "It's a dwarf, who has trained the animals specifically for underground exploration, as it turns out. I think that one may meet your needs more then the other, which specializes more in those beast trained for uses on farms and such. Just give me a second and I'll join you!"

Gregorian moves towards the dealer of reations and picks up a few more days worth opf food and places them in his pack.

[10 days, for a total of 5 gp]

He struggles under the added weight of the provisions and comes back to the others. "Seems I may have need of something to carry goods for my self as well! Would you mind if I join you in the purchase so that I can also share some of the space in those saddle bags?" Gregorian starts to head towards the dealer he had mentioned.

DM Voice: My character, Gur, will take part in this adventure, but will not gain experience as he is acting as an NPC, and in turn my lead in to this adventure. After your supplies are updated on your characters in the RG, I will start moving everyone on the road.

Gur says to everyone, "A mule's a mule, but what I'd like is a horse. Can't quite tame one myself yet, and I don't trust anyone elses horse training skills but my own, with good reason! Hurry yourselves up and we'll kick it off and get our legs on the road!"
