The place was quiet, save for the last remnants of the population that were making their way out towards the Dawn Way. There was a certain sadness to this, despite the fact that Avril had no firm attachment to this place or its people. If anything, she was doing this 'war' for the Witchwood and the creatures of the forest, and not those on the Dawn Way. Still, there was most likely some symbiosm there, which needed to be protected.She hastened her step, calling for Mandla to her side the moment she spotted the dog's attention drifting away. She quickly found Tyrla, Siobhan and Larian, joining them as the last people left. Taking a look at Pender as if to share their mutual experience, she said, "We met an ally in the Witchwood, while searching for Jorr," she started, and then continued to explain what they'd learnt, sticking to the facts rather than the details of the situation."So we basically have two options." She paused. "Larian, can I see that map of ours again, please?" She took Koth's map in her hands and took a look at it. "We can head down to the Thornwaste, to find where Koth indicated Ghostlord. By every indication, the hobgoblins are attempting to recruit whatever it represents to their cause. We don't know where to look or what we're looking for, but it's a short distance away. If we can stop the army gaining additional allies, then we might buy the Dawn Way some time.""Or," she continued, "We can take the path to the Blackfens. It's a longer journey, but by the indications on the map, Koth highlighted that he wasn't sure if the lizard folk would join their cause. And, they're involved in creating abominations of some sort." She looked at their allies. "The more we can prevent the size of this army growing, the better.""The outcome of the visit to the Thornwaste is unclear, and I'd rather not hedge my bets on uncertainty at this point when time is short. We may just journey there and find nothing that we can do if the army was rejected. We know, however, that the Blackfens are currently being used to aid the army. If we can stop that, we can help. I say we head there, and put a stop to those abominations." She looked to see if her allies agreed with her assessment.[SBLOCK=OOC] OOC: By the look of the numbers Creamsteak provided, and assuming a 30 ft. movement rate (24 miles per day), it's going to be quickest and safest to take the Rhesttrail. It's 160 miles, or about 7 days. The Rhestwash is too slow, and the straight path could be dangerous.Spells and Abilities Active:Spells Cast and Abilities/Items Used:Spells Prepared:Spells Prepared (Normal 5/3/3/2, Wis 0/1/1/1):Level 0 (5): Cure Minor Wounds (2), Detect Magic (2), GuidanceLevel 1 (4): Cure Light Wounds, Enrage Animal, Faerie Fire, Produce FlameLevel 2 (4): Barkskin, Bull's Strength, Bear's Endurance, Flaming SphereLevel 3 (3): Call Lightning, Cure Moderate Wounds, Sleet Storm<a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=206218" target="_blank">Avril's Character Sheet</a> [/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
