Message: <blockquote data-quote="Helspar" data-source="post: 1333568" data-attributes="member: 4849">The Journeys of Helspar, Entry SixI am writing this from the comforts of the Ploughman Inn in Halfing’s Down. I could write paragraphs extolling the virtues of this place. Good food, pipe weed to smoke, soft beds, all of the luxuries that make the days on the road worthwhile. The coins spent here I will not regret. Unfortunately the comforts here do not ease the worries of my mind. While most of my companions seem to take the opportunity to relax, The mentallist is restless to the discomfort of those around him. Even the normally hardened elf has taken a break to enjoy the good things in life. While we stopped to explore what this idyllic village had to offer the so-called Psi Warrior has ridden ahead on the path. One does not need to go seeking one’s doom, It will find you soon enough.     I spoke with some merchants this evening about possibly of travel arrangements to the north. I am reluctant to mention my interests in Trail’s End; I would not want to scare off anyone before I got there to see if the rumours were true. These merchants would provide good cover and contacts should I further my investigations in that direction. They seem like decent fellows after all.    I might note here that the young Pick seems very low key when we are about in civilisation; as if he does not wish to attract attention to himself. At least he makes no attempt to steal from these fine folk here. I would hate not to be able to come back. Valerick seems to be very withdrawn since I have met him. I wonder if he has always been this way or what could of changed his disposition. He does not seem to be the brooding type. The mighty Wicker at least is someone to talk to although our conversations inevitably turn to tales of hardship; and he has two hundred and some years of it on me. I think our turn towards the north however conflicts with feelings inside him. If our venture to Trail’s End proves fruitless for me perhaps I will travel south with him. I have, after all, no leads apart from that and no where else to go. Perhaps the elven folk can help with my magic studies at least.</blockquote>
