[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 3840814, member: 7006"] As the group stands around the well in the town square, Jarrith takes a few more sips of his canteen to hopefully rid himself of the dry-mouth he has from his drinking the night before and today. As the noon-day sun climbs high overhead, he drops his backpack and begins rummaging through it to claim his notebook. He begins flipping through it and starts speaking out loud to anyone and everyone who might hear. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Well so far we've accomplished some things... but little of any tangible results.
