Feeling better equipped, you join Grandfather Wen on his boat. As before, Wen is very particular about where everything is stowed. He avoids Glip as best he can - perhaps a man who makes his living from catching fish is unnerved by a fish who walks as a man.Watched from the ghats by the Vashti, Three Flowers, Dirt and Sister Herbalist, as well as several novices, fisherfolk and a couple of guards, the boat heads upstream towards Tigerskin Gorge.It takes a couple of days travel upstream before the gorge comes into sight, and its name becomes obvious. Strata of orange and black rock stripe the sides of a bite taken out of the cliffs on the right-hand bank of the river. Within the bite are several tents and a couple of shanty huts, all in a bad state of disrepair. Across the back of the gorge run three mining levels, diagonal slashes leading up to a succession of tunnels. A stream runs through the middle of the camp, diverted into a wooden leat before it disgorges across a shore on shingle into the River Leng.Supply boxes have been scattered across the camp, evidently the work of scavenging animals. The only movement is the fluttering of a loose tent corner in the breeze, a breeze that carries a smattering of drizzle.[sblock=OOC]Grandfather Wen<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/attachments/playing-game/36300d1219216192-romance-river-kingdoms-old-man.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />His boat<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/attachments/playing-game/36334d1219404514-romance-river-kingdoms-sampan-01.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />All items are fine. I make the Wand of CLW 750gp, leaving Mystal with 250gp worth of "spend".Anyone who wants to have a go at poling the boat is welcome (Grandfather Wen is a very fussy teacher, but he also likes a snooze at the front of the boat and so is willing to cede control). Make a DC 10 Int check and you get Profession (boatman) at +0 (plus Wis modifier) - i.e. no actual ranks but you count as trained. Annika, who as already got this level of skill, can get Profession (boatman) +1 if she wants to make the check.[/sblock]</blockquote>
