Apparently it's too hard to look for a big building standing less than 100 yards away from the route. It's just another example of the arrogance and blatant disregard for anything or anyone on this road other than their precious estates and getting to them as quickly as possible. I can guarantee that if I left that bridge unrepaired, I would have the authorities breathing down my neck for not doing their job for them. If you're in the fur trade, there is certainly plenty of potential up north. Most of the merchants I know of that still travel the road deal with either fur or lumber." As Eldrick talks, the door opens and a clearly local man walks in, sitting down an empty table. "If you want to get information on the wagon from yesterday, and convince the locals you aren't just another morbidly curious traveler, Manny there is one of the folks who saw it go by, and could use the help of a free meal, though he ain't going to say so out loud. I would stay away from any topic other than your fur company though; too many people around here jump at even the slightest hint of city arrogance."</blockquote>
