[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5384504, member: 2011"] [COLOR="Teal"] [COLOR=Lime]"Actually, we would not need to know the name of the villages. We merely ask the ostler the names of nearby villages and towns. And such a plan takes a few minutes of effort and is not a waste of time. There is no need to get directly to Sharford with all due haste. The letter was sent a while back and took quite a bit of time to get to the Professor's hands even once it arrived at the University. So, any sense of urgency is long since unnecessary. Each of us has our own personal strengths. Mine are tactics and strategies. It's what I do. If you choose to ignore my strengths in order to cut to the chase, you are free to do so. I would defer to you in your areas of expertise, but you are free to not defer to me in mine. But the fact that you are rushing headlong into a situation of which you know nothing or little without covering your trail when you know that you are being either watched or followed, without thinking about it at all and calling that overthinking, and without even attempting to find out any information from the locals means that you cannot make an informed decision once you get there. Our enemies already know that we are here, so asking questions of the locals will not harm us and might actually help us. But, I will defer to your decision in this case. Let us move on completely blind to the situation and hope that Mythra can pull your bacon out of the fire. You do realize, of course, that since the watcher on the lightning rail did not get off, that there are watchers already assigned here in this town. They already know that we are here and are already watching us." [/COLOR][/color] [/QUOTE]
