Cyryn and Jared lead the way, with Loricallior and Jebbo right behind. For a moment, it seems that Hakkara hesitates, but then she too follows the others out of the tavern.True to the barkeep's word, it's only a short distance down the road to the herbalist's shop. Creeping ivy and full window boxes cover the façade of the rugged-looking, two-story shop bearing the faded sign “Roots and Remedies.” A line of twenty-some somber townsfolk—some with pale, wheezing children, others seeming to be precipitously near tears—stretches from the open door. A heavy mood hangs over this long line of haggard folk, a few of whom look up with dull eyes at the approach of the adventurers. Most, however, seem focused on the door to the shop and the slim hope that waits inside.</blockquote>
