J. Alexander's Four Lands Part 2, redux

[Scotley]

Angelo

"I expect Lucien will be a better judge of horseflesh than I. Do we just take what we need or try to find someone to rent from? Either way, let's make our way down." Angelo addresses the wolf. "We are going down to the stables. We'll use a cart or wagon for your friend. We'll have to carry him."

 

[J. Alexander]

The Stables

The dog is a little unhappy with the party moving the sick man but makes no efforts to hinder the party. Luck is with the party as they move thru the apparently inhabitless Inn and towards the stable. The dog silently follows behind the party, eyeing their every movement. Reaching the stablels, the party now mush decide on a wagon or a cart and if a cart do they wish to harness the oversized dog to it?

Tetsu

"I suggest we return the cart and horse without notice, if we can, find out who owns each, and leave an appropriate hiring fee where they will find it. That way we avoid possible extortionary fees based on the threat of turning us in, but are still being fair to the owners. As to cart or wagon, I'd not try to harness that dog to anything even if it wouldn't be consipicuous. I say we take the cart and a horse."

 

[Scotley]

"Wolf, how do you feel about pulling your friend in a cart? He'll be much less conspicuous as a beast of burden. And we'll avoid being charged as horse thieves. We can always say with thought this was Marcus' cart and we were just confused. After all we were trying to rush a sick man to the temple for healing..."

The Stables

The dog fixes angelo with an expression that clearly convey "One is not amused".

Angelo

Seeing his suggestion fall on deaf ears, Angelo relents, "Okay, let's lash up some horse then."

 

[J. Alexander]

The Stables

With a deep "woof" almost like a sound of resignation and disgust, the dog walks over and gets bewteen the posts of the cart.

Angelo

Trying to contain his glee at the wolf's capitulation, Angelo goes over and harnesses him up with great care. "Let's get Marcus in the back and try to make him comfortable." Holding up his disguise kit, Angelo asks, "Tetsu how do you feel about being a farm wife and driving this cart? Perhaps Lucien can ride ahead on his own mount and act as scout, though I think it best we leave the stable first. I'll ride in back with Marcus as farmer brown."
