Abdul and the Bedine riders look at one another and then at the retreating party with utter astonishment. A murmur of conversation wells up behind the group as they begin to walk. Pottofer turns and looks at the others that have followed him, tears in his eyes and sorrow in his face.
"Ah... Ah can't ask ye t' come wit me on this, but I can't say I won't enjoy th' company," he says finally, a tiny hint of a tremulous smile on his face.
The Bedine finally finish talking, and they urge their horses up to the group. "You embark upon purest madness in this quest!" Abdul says with astonishment. "I understand the desire to find your friend, but you are not at all prepared for what you will face. Can you even make it down the cliff? Have you enough rope for even that? As much as a fool's errand as this is, I would hate to see you dashed to bits at the foot of the cliff for lack of something as simple as rope!"
OOC - You recall the cliff is about 200' straight down.
