"Of course you will take responsibility for the actions of your beasts and such.  Come now, I am sure you are eager to get acquainted and sample our wares."While you join the main caravan Ahmed Khel introduces you to his Sargeants of the Guard, Zeid and Dakhial, the other men who wear chain shirts.All of the people you see appear to be desert folk.  You notice that some of the two score guards are women, as are a few of the dozen merchants who walk on foot and tend the pack camels.  In addition to the guards' mounts there are a few dozen or so pack camels and half a dozen spares brought in case a camel needs to be replaced.The pack camels carry mostly dried fruits, grains, and cloth.  You are given a meal which is slightly spicy, different from what you have tasted before but not particularly good or bad.Those of you without mounts (Aram, Bevin, and Nargon) are offered camels to ride.  (ooc: Do you accept?  Note: Camels have a movement rate of 50'.  The caravan as a whole, however, moves slower and most of the merchants are on foot.)The camels shy away a bit from Ripclaw and the skeleton, but are easily guided ahead.  They are not spooked as horses might be.You find that the caravan folk are not very talkative, especially to you.  They reply politely to your questions but do not elaborate.Captain of the Guard Khel suggests that your party ride ahead of his guards, acting as an advance guard.(ooc: Let me know what you plan to do, how far ahead you will ride if you do, and also about spells to be prepared for the next day.)</blockquote>
