Moving out
"We must leave Elloen alone now. I feel we have already pressed her too much, and I cannot bear to cause her any more pain." Dardus sighs, briefly looking to the sky.
"It looks to be about midday. Mardrick's last area of study before he went missing was a series of abandoned farms north of the Dead Forest. If you take the road around the forest, you should make it by nightfall. Just. But that part of the road has seen an increase in attacks by brigands of late, so be careful."
"If you wish, you could go through the forest, but I must caution you - it is not called the Dead Forest for lack of life. All manner of foul creature has been seen there, and while I don't give much credence to many of the stories, it is true that many who have ventured inside have not returned. The way through the Dead Forest should get you to the farms with plenty of daylight remaining, should you choose that route."
Dardus looks over each of you in turn. "I wish you the best of luck. I will pray first for your safe return, and then I will pray that you may find some way to help our town recover before it is too late. Farewell." With this, he turns around, and walks back towards his smithy.

Decision time. Which way would you like to go?
