[QUOTE="MacConnell, post: 8816366, member: 6855223"] Having come looking for assistance, Plumeir was to gain the aid of two of the former Outliers. Hopefully it would be enough. No further discussion of speculation was going to merit greater knowledge. The only thing left to do was to return to the scene of the crime. It was a day’s walk from Refuge to Outpost and then, maybe, half of a morning’s walk to the mining operation. Following the established road left little to no chance for hostile encounters, though animals were still more prevalent than people. No one in Outpost had any information other than what Plumeir had already been able to provide them. Arriving at the mines shortly before midday, the daily activity was well underway, as it should have been, though the unit of Kingdom Soldiers, assigned to the mines, was still diligently searching the area for any signs of the missing children or who had taken them. Public confidence was low that those barely competent sword carriers would discover anything. Plumeir had volunteered, though his mission to enlist greater help was sanctioned by Ferguine, the Mining Commissioner. Local housing, like that of most communities in the region, was composed of actual lumber, due to the more advanced technology of making tools. All of these structures were situated along the river, west of the roadway, while the actual mining endeavors dotted the large mound of rock that jutted above the trees, east of the road. The mines were spread around the giant cairn and at various elevations, and the forge for smelting the ore butted against the western face of the rise. Young children, able to run and play, were generally kept together, during the day, under the supervision of several women. These had not been touched. Older children, not really of an age or developmental status to labor, were generally free to move about as they pleased, just like others of the same age group in other communities. They divided themselves into units of friends or identifiable factions. One of these groups had been captured, northward, along the river in between the mines and the small Centrin village that still existed, where the Outliers had prevented the total destruction of a previous one, over ten Cycles back.
