"I have returned," Mandalo says as he enters. "I have gathered some supplies. I hope they are sufficient."

Kalinn returns the next day to the manor, giving a nod of grudging respect to Raynucio as she catches the giant's eye. She greets the others with quiet reserve as well and indicates her readiness to proceed.

OOC: Sorry, guys! I completely missed the start-up of this thread and have been waiting for more posts in the Dunn Wright. Can we just assume Kalinn was at the manor but had no questions? She can contribute some cash to the CLW funds as well. I'm in the US Central time-zone, and can usually post 1+ times a day. I'll let you know if I'm going to be out of pocket; if I disappear for more than 24 hours feel free to NPC Kalinn if her action is needed to move things along.

OOC: No problem Mowgli, if you have any questions you can ask now. Btw, did you play in an online PFS mod, "Slave Pits of Absalom" a few months ago? I will send a message to Udalrich to see where he is too.

OOC: Working again today. Get done about 10pm US Central-time.

[sblock=ooc]I am going to assume Syldar is with the group. If I find out otherwise, I will recruit another 2nd lvl character that can meet the group in Sangre[/sblock]

With the group gathered, Frederick announces, "Well met everyone, I wish you success on your journey. Please gather around Magister Brunico and you will be off."

As the group surrounds the Magister, he pulls out a scroll and reads. There is a brief unidentifiable sensation, then all of a sudden you are assaulted by an almost overwhelming heat. The bright sun beats down on you mercilessly and sweat immediately breaks out from every pore of your bodies. The humidity is oppresive and prevents your sweat from evaporating. Within minutes, everyone is dripping wet.

"Welcome to the Inner Sea." Brunico exclaims. He points to a small village about half a mile away on the shore.
"You will meet your ride there. The ship is called The Sea Sprite and should be waiting. Good luck and the gods be with you."

Heavily armored and pale skinned Raynucio is clearly not built for excessive sun, and he swiftly tosses up his cloak's hood to shield himself from the scorching rays.

"And how do we contact you to get us out of the gods forsaken place again Wizard? Bah, no matter tell the poet. Fairwell." He growls irritably, turning and beginning to stride towards the village.

Aradra pulls out a scarf, and ties it around his head. He then takes a swig from his canteen, and looks around at the party "Drink plenty of fluids, or you sweat yourself to death." He then starts walking after Raynucio.

Though the sun beats down mercilessly on her head and she's as drenched as the others in sweat, Kalinn seems otherwise unaffected by the heat. As she strides along with the rest icy breezes stir the air around her and creep through the openings in their clothing, briefly chilling the sweat that's accumulated but providing no real relief from the sweltering soup.

As your group walks down the trail to the village, you notice that, aside from several small fishing boats, there are two ships off shore. One is obviously a merchantman, although it is much sleeker than the ones usually seen in Venza. The other is a rather fast looking sloop. There are two longboats just pulling away from the sloop as you make your way towards the pier.

OOC: perception or sense motive checks from everyone please.

Raynucio watches the ships through narrowed eyes.
