[QUOTE="Iron Chef BBQ, post: 2424893, member: 1844"] As soon as Borin is awake he goes and readies his horse to leave. He then goes to Marja's room. He makes sure she is alone and then tells her the following: "Last night I was visited in my dreams by Morgaine...I think. I do not know if this dream is real or just an attempt by our enemies to distract us. I need to go into the wilderness and think about this...alone. I can not think well in this town. The buildings are stifling." Marja offers to go with him, but he refuses. He must go alone, he explains. She asks for more details about the dream. “I had a dream, too.” she offers, and quickly fills him in, but her dream is similar to many of her other dreams. Borin’s was different. “Morgaine has told me I can not remain an elf. However, becoming a dwarf again will involve another quest. As such I must determine in my heart if this is just a distraction or is real." Borin asks her to keep some of his things safe for him and leaves her with all of his non magical possessions (except his Masterwork Great Axe), his breast plate, his bearskin leather armor, his periapt of wisdom, and his sheepskin of polymorph. He then leaves to seek out Lucre. As Borin awaits the arrival of his compatriots in the tavern hall, he growls at anyone who sits close enough to his table to listen in on conversations. When everyone arrives in the common room for breakfast, Borin stands and quietly speaks, doing his best to be overheard by no one but them. “I have had a strange dream last night. Some of you appeared in it, but not as yourselves. And while I do not think I should discuss the details right now, I do think it is important for me to determine if this is a real vision or a false vision. I can not hear myself think in this town and so I am going into the wilderness to sort this out...alone. I must know in my heart if this is real before I burden any of you with it. “While I am gone, I know you will do what is best, but I wanted to share my thoughts with you. “For the reasons presented by Caerwyn last night, I do not think the Captain is our best source of information. In fact, I think he will only serve to give warning to our enemies. I think that the Merchant is our best bet. He is greedy and self serving. Therefore it should not be hard to make him realize that it is in his best interests to help us. “I also think that we must pursue the thief as an information link. I do not think he knew what he was doing, but someone up his supply chain did. He was provided with a creation of Mormo.

As he strides towards the door, some of the group notice that he is wearing nothing more than a simple set of traveling clothes. Across his back is his old Great Axe. As he passes Caerwyn silently hands him a wand with a wink (cure light wounds, 41 charges). Borin, turns to Caerwyn and says, "Thank you, but I prefer to travel light." He then hands the wand back. He goes through the door and is gone. Kel looks out the window watching him mount his horse and ride away: “You know, I'd ask where he's going, but somehow I don't think I'd get an answer” [/QUOTE]
