"Well, buy whatever supplies you need, and I'll accompany you around the Adventurer's Guild compound. Once that's done, you can wait for me near the city gates. I have enough supplies in my pack already, but I need to visit a few folks briefly before I leave. So, once you're done in the compound, I'll meet you at the gates in about an hour." Alaric says, pointing at a marked sundial in the plaza.
Once everyone's done buying goods in the compound, Alaric heads over to pick up and deliver components to Master Entan, informing the old wizard that he's about to leave town on a trip for the Guild, and probably won't be back for several weeks or a few months for all he knows. Then Alaric says farewell to the few other apprentices and goes to visit his great-uncle Lamont for a bit, and finally the young mage returns to the plaza by Azgund's gates, ready to leave.

Upon Alaric saying he was going to say his goodbyes, Corath tells the group at large, "I will meet you at the gates." She quickly takes her leave, finding her usual spot at the gate. She patiently waits the hour, keeping a lookout for Alaric. When she sees him approaching, she rejoins him.
Johen is quite impressed with the gear available at the Guild's shop. He finds tools and items that he had never seen before. However he remains cautious and spends little.
Then the group discusses for quite a while about acquiring a mule. In the end they decide to buy it and Johen finds himself leading the animal out of the Guild's compound. He makes his way with the others to the City Gate to meet Alaric.

Aohdan patiently followed the group to meet with Alaric. His calm demeanor belied his impatience to get underway, however. While walking, he focused on the sensations coming from his feet striking the cobblestones. 'I guess those shoes will have to do for a while longer.' he thought.

After briefly visiting his relatives, teacher, and fellow apprentices, Alaric returns to the gate of Azgund, walking a bit slowly with his backpack of junk and supplies weighing him down as usual. "Hello again, all. Apologies for the wait, but I couldn't just up and leave town without letting my friends, relatives, and Master Entan know that I was leaving. I'm ready now if you are."

Before Leaving the City...
Alaric
Upon entering Entan's modest home, Alaric sees the old wizard in his usual spot, stooped over his desk poring over yet another old tome. Without looking up he says, "Off on a grand adventure at the behest of the grand fool, Iphithis, are we? You know, the last time Iphithis inpsired one of my apprentices to adventure, the poor lad never returned. Be wary. Iphithis and I haven't seen eye to eye for a number of years. He has secrets that may very well prove dangerous for you and whoever else he managed to coerce into whatever mess you're heading into. Try not to get killed."
Corath
On her way to the north gate, Tarkesi's voice comes at her from an alley, "Psst, hey!" Upon her approach, he looks around furtively then whispers, "There's not much time. The battle you mentioned...between that red wizard and the Silver Shadow and the Shadow Knight. My uncle Jolly was there. He can tell you more. That's all I have time for. Go! And good luck." The name Jolly...Jolithri Tal...is familiar...
Leaving the City...
The North Road winds through grassy and lightly wooded hills as it heads north toward Vedlund. Alaric's Guild Ring allows the group to pass the Rock River bridge without paying the usual bridge toll. During their first day of travel, the group notes several things. First, when the group stops to eat, the others notice that Corath does not partake. Second, Norali is quiet, walking behind the group. Third, there are few other travelers on the road. After the Rock River bridge, the land begins to flatten out, with farmsteads on either side of the road. Cattle, sheep, and horses graze behind flimsy wooden fences. A sheep dog barks at the group as they pass by. As the end of the day nears, the group finds themselves still on the road, with farm and grazing lands still fenced off to either side. A fairly large farm stead house stands on a minor rise just ahead.
