Since the path out of the mountains has been traveled by the Maldrog, before, no new ore is to be discovered. Practice with existing ingots, however, provides that Weit has the greatest range and greatest ability to sense ore without the use of a conduit. Several other Prospectors have and equal ability to Sheldon, whose own ability is slightly above that of the other Seekers.Weit's Prospectors behave and travel in a manner almost identical to that of the Southroad Seekers. They stretch and warm up each morning and happily join Sannit and any of the other in training each evening. All the Maldrog carry heavy weaponry and fight in a manner similar to Saemund. They find it to be informative training to work against the variation of Sannit's spear and Tor's longsword, the speed of Vadin's and Indigo's style of fighting. Even though Saemund's style is similar, the differences in height prove training points as well. The Prospectors, after some hesitation with regard to his safety, engage Sheldon against his empty handed defensive approach to combat.Weit says that the particular terrain is some indication of what ore exists beneath the ground but that all ore is more plentiful in the mountainous regions, except coal, which seems to be some combination of hills and flooding.[/gm][gm]Bolo is pleased to observe that the Prospectors are patient and kind toward their animals. They are friendly with Turtle, repectfule of Myth, and awed by Feroz. They demonstrate no reservation or superstition toward consuming food collected by the animals. They are even compliant in allowing their animals free from their tether as work with Indigo toward their training. Despite this none of them show any ability to alter the behavior of an animal by manipulating Way.Two of the women, specifically, show great interest in the acquisition of medicinal herbs, but alas are completely unable to sense them in the manner in which they can sense ore.[ooc]Bolo and Indigo are able to collect some useful herbs along the path.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Soothe Leaf: 4 measures</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Leaves of Awareness: 2 measures</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Mend Leaf: 1 measure</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Soothe Bark: 1 measure</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Mend Root: 1 measure</li> </ul>[/ooc][/gm][gm]The Prospectors all enjoy the company of the bear and admire his entertainment. Sheldon, from some reason, has been practicing walking on his hands, each evening. Turtle proves able to perform the same feat, even more readily than Sheldon.[/gm]</blockquote>
