Actually, since the moners want to go to town as well, in order to tell the Marshall there what happened, their donkey can carry quite a bit as well. Soemone let me know how the loot is being divided, if any shares,cash is being given to the rescued folk etc...ICThe walk to Gertle's Gulch is an easy, if hot, trek through the scrub. Long before you can see the place, you smell it. Not the unpleasant stench of so many towns, but the miasma of spices and cooking, horses and cattle.Several cattle ranchers are within a few day's travel, and they bring their animals to Gertle's Gulch to sell to the various travellers who frequent the place, both as food and as breeding stock, as the area is renowned for it's stock's quality.Entering the South end of town, you draw a few looks from folk, both normals and several Scions that you see. As Tzzarcct has told you, this town has a fairly large population of Scions.Notable PersonagesA human with reddish skin, his hair looking like short spiky flames, his dress suggesting a duellist, as he bears matched rapier and poignard.He inclines his head in a friendly, if guarded manner.An Orc, scaly and massively built, easily the size of Semm (when not enraged, that is), leaning upon a huge mace, spitting tobacco into a spittoon alongside a slim halfling girl, her manner wild and feral. These stop their game long enough for the Orc to stare at Semm, his lips quivering in obvious, if contained belligerance. Puffing himself up as the Monster walks past, the Orc draws an alarmed reaction from several townsfolk nearby (who scamper away), as well as high pitched laughter from his Halfling companion, who mocks him with apelike gestures. The Orc snarls and swings a backhand at her, but misses, as she tumbles back and up...floating in the air brefly, before landing on a hitching post and chuckling again, winking at Semm as she does so.Lastly, sitting on the porch of the nearby Sherriff's House is a Dwarf wearing the coat of a marshall, a badge clearly visable on his lapel. Wit his sits an elf, likewise wearing a badge, though this one is smaller (and less  shiny).These two stand as you near, looking directly at your group, a questioning glint in the dwarf's eye.Tzzarcct knows the dwarf as Marshall Lograin, and the elf as his deputy as Vim, a likeable enough pair.</blockquote>
