Days 262 - 264: During Travel
This active task is applied to the search for usable metal or stone. The results of the effectiveness are determined by terrain and availability of material. The base score without the addition of the random roll represents the passive knowledge to notice the presence of an ore or mineral or the tendency of the area to contain such. A minimum rank of 50 is need to passively notice the most base mineral, which is slate, and a minimum rank of 60 is needed to passively notice the most base ore, which is zinc. The addition of the random roll represents an active search. For those who can manipulate Way, holding a piece of the desired material while making an active search, increases the total score by 100. Also the total effectiveness may be augmented by the passive Collegiate technique of Konokoro. Success is determined by meeting or exceeding the predetermined rank requirements of the Minerals and Ores Availability Tables.

Days 265 - 268:
Since the crew has reached the coast, it is decided to turn southward, following it until somewhere recognizable is reached. After 4 more days of journey, the coast turns inland and the crew travels more in an easterly direction. As they near what should have been a small fishing village, they see the burned husks of residences and the smell of the smoke still hangs in the air. Some people, mostly elderly, wander around aimlessly.

Vittero will take the opposite flank as Maka to, also, hunt for game.

Maka says, "This village has been raided. Quickly, my friends, we must talk to one of the survivors, to discover what happened."
Maka approaches one of the elderly villagers who is wandering around aimlessly. But he already has a sneaking suspicion of what has happened. His father had told him of this long ago; when raiders come to conquer a land, they sometimes take young men by force, forcefully inscripting them into their armies. It is Maka's hope that his gut feeling is wrong. But he has a horrible, nagging feeling that he is not.

Day 268: A Burned Village
Before the others can even begin to search the area, Vittero calls to them. "You need to all come hear this for yourself."
A haggard, elderly man who identifies himself as Jean begin in the middle of a thought. "They left, maybe, an hour ago. It was soldiers from the King that did this. Some priest with them, who kept his face covered, was in charge. He gave the commands. His voice sounded young. He was spouting garbage about the heresy of our false belief must be cleansed with fire. The killed our healer and anyone who resisted, which was most of the young men. They took some older children with them when they departed.
The worst part is they took our town healer and burned her alive! It was sick, I tell you. Sick!
Soldiers of the Light of the World. Hogwash! Sadistic butchers is what they are!"

The remaining villagers appear to be of the Markidian tribe, which is the common Aedaman tribe of the region; therefore being Markidian himself, Vittero accompanies Maka to inquire of the villagers. Adisakti goes with Taylar and Raven Elk.

Maka's countenance falls, as his mood darkens, "The king's soldiers did this? They killed the young men, simply for their beliefs? Vittero, do you think your father knows anything about this?"
Maka pauses for a moment to collect his wits, "We need to track these soldiers, and intercept them before they can strike again. Then we should warn The Rheini about this, my people will surely be targeted for their beliefs."

Raven Elk's countenance darkens at this news. He says to his friends, "Brothers, let's catch up to these villains and make them answer for their crimes against the people."
He turns toward the direction the slayers of innocents have gone. "I cannot believe, however, that the king would decree such a thing from what I've heard of him. Hard he is, but this? No, there may be more to this that even the king is unawares."
Raven Elk then begins to purposefully stride after the kingsmen and will not be deterred.
