Boortman, Apothecary."The tips of the young elf's ears turned scarlet in the still morning air.  "Ah," he stammered, holding up one of the vials, "Our host seems to have anticipated our need." ("In his usual way", thought the elf.)  "My apologies to you all for my...misplaced...concern."Oirhandir fervently hoped his companions would be so pleased at knowing they were protected against the snakes that they would overlook his oversight.Oirhandir stared for a moment at the brawny half-orc, seeming somewhat misplaced atop his nervous steed.  Were the start of all such adventures so strange?  Recovering, the elf blurted out, "Why, yes.  Yes, we'll be on our way."  With that, Oirhandir gently stroked the muzzle of his own mount while quietly asking Phyrah's blessing on the journey.  Seeing the rest of the party mounting up to ride, Oirhandir eased into the saddle and took the reins.</blockquote>
