Norri mingles with the rank and file Evenwood troops, finding it easy to socialise already being popular as part of the Fist. He takes a liking to the scouts and can often be found hanging around with them during the two weeks, even tagging along with them when they go scouting and the like.

Whitney stays pretty much to herself, being very cold to the men who were insulting her (not to the point of rudeness, but making it clear that she does not forget or forgive easily). She makes it a point to study some of the books she's brought with her ( Learning the trick of Extend Spell as a result). Also, she sends serveral messages back to civilization, requesting books and information to help her identify the creature or being that held Tarowyn's body in thrall for a time, curious to see what role such a being might have in the events of the day.

Bhartus takes heed of the commoner's wishes, and sends word to the Dwarven kingdoms, relating the story of the dark obelisk and how Moradin forged him into destroying it. Moradin is clearly against the goblinoids, and would want dwarves to lift up their warhammer and their battleaxe against these foes.
Bhartus will also go amongst the civilians, granting whatever healing help he can. He also finds out what he can about Rathsek.

Jericho spends the time hunting down the goblin dissidents and trying to secure the area in the quickest yet most thorough way possible. During that time he is amused by the knight’s attempts to woo Whitney. Although he keeps his distance, if only to honor her wishes from earlier in their misadventures.
Jericho presents the head of Sir Kravik to Lord Evenwood as a gift in honor of the Greenskin Massacre and their decisive victory over the goblins and the traitor. He spends time not fighting, training, both himself and his men; he takes on any challenge head on. But he still enjoys a good drink with the men, he just seems more aloof; and much more mindful of his actions as he matures into the leader the land seems to demand him to be.
A stranger in land rife with prejudice and parochial customs he brings the charm of the D’orite people to those willing to listen; and is never forceful with his stories, more of an entertainer, as entertaining as a violent soldier turned adventurer can be.
But he still has his eye on the finer things in life and commissions an enchanted light crossbow for the Lady Magus. Once it is complete, he delivers the crossbow himself to the lovely Whitney along with a bundle of fish for Mist. He is dressed in his military uniform, whatever that may be, since he is in the service of Lord Evenwood, with his own D’orite flair of course…

Whitney accepts the gift of the crossbow in good humor, clearly trying not to take all the woorer's ill attempts out on her trail companion as she again retreats back into her studies on the possessing entity and metamagic.

Jericho spends his free time training; he sets up a secluded area and trains to improve his swordplay. He trains with just his blade, boots, and trousers. He works on his forms with his blade, to keep himself in shape and constantly pushes himself to exhaustion daily. He focuses on trying to push his form to the maximum, blending his native fighting style with the observations from the people of this region.
His enchanted blade creating a wall of death as he works through his steps, practicing with his shield as well to get the most out of his fighting art. He was growing more focused in his time with the Fist, and he would need that focus in the days to come…

Jericho: Lord Evenwood accepts Kravik's remains with a look that is a mix of formal joy and appreciation at your victory and a touch of sadness at the betrayal that precipitated it. All the same, he renews the conditions of the agreement used to get you to take command of his armies, describing the wealth of the Aporos lands that border Duvik's Pass and how you will be able to lay claim to it after the end of the campaign. Before you return to the field, he treats you to a roast derived from a boar he killed on a hunt in what were once the goblin woods, now his by the terms you agreed upon.
Bhartus and Whitney: The only immediate source of written local knowledge, Evenwoods mute court mage, has no extensive knowledge of the creatures you fought, beyond a few general tales of fell spirits which the goblins worship which are sent to you by means of a rider that accompanies Jericho back to the armies camp; they are said to travel to the mortal world to demand the sacrafice of fey peoples such as elves and gnomes, as well as the civilized races, especially dwarves, whose flesh they mind to be very much to their tastes. Folklore tells that the goblins, known for weakness and cowardice, only take up arms against stronger peoples at the prompting of these monsters.
Bhartus: Lord Evenwood sends word that he will attempt to solicite the aid of the dwarves, but that this is a faint hope indeed, for the stone folk's Kingdoms (one of which was presumably once the home of your clan) are remote, residing as they do in the rugged mountain ranges to the south, and dwarves tend to be preoccupied by their own affairs. Still he gives his thanks to your entire race for providing a champion of the Dwarffather to aid in the struggle against goblinoid and rebel.
ooc Kain and Mirth: Update your statblock in the ooc forum!!! Oh, and mirth, just give me some clue as to what you would have Tarowyn do during the downtime. I know you are probably still busy, so no rush; You have the weekend atleast.
By the way, were you able to get 'Three Arrows for the King'?
ooc Krug: I just recieved 'Races of Stone'. Let me know if there is something specific from it that you might want to take advantage of or if you are curious about its contents.
