Kiet offers to drive:



"It would be my honor to drive the wagon and dispose of my donkey(s)."  I'm not sure if I have one or two here... "I would like the opportunity to enhance my wagon driving skills.  Perhaps, some day, I might visit this ranch that Ben'dar speaks so fondly of and there learn to ride these horses you all seem to love.  I still am uncomfortable around them, though I do not dislike them"



"I believe that we should stay on the roads as long as we can, for the sake of our noble passengers, but avoid Katai city by at least 50-60 miles.  The road will provide us with easy travel.  The other option is to go overland and once we near Shantau we set up camp for Shu to work her detection, or non-detection, as the case may be"



"I will be staying near the wagon anyway in order to provide protection for Zhao."

Kell offers both his riding horse and draft horse to pull the wagon. The draft horse is especially a good fit for pulling.

Whilst Kell is one of the drivers, he thinks it is a good idea to have the other driver scouting out front with Ben'Dar to help plan the route they take.  Mainly in case there are potentially tricky places that someone with teamster skill would spot easier.

Why not sell Kiet's donkey before we leave, then buy another when we reach Shantou?  It speeds the travel considerably.  Kiet is restricted to the wagon or riding with someone else, but the speed could make up for that.

[I have a question for clarification - we are still going to Shantou, overland via the plains and avoiding Katai city at all costs.  Correct?  Here are the options as I see them, and I think we're using option 1.

Option 1: Only over the plains, avoiding the roads, but basically West to the mountains(when Katai city is due south), then turn south-west to Shantou.
Option 2: from Jiquo: west on highway until the fork in the road, then more westerly over the plains to avoid Katai city, possibly reaching the edge of the mountains, then south to rejoin the highway and cross the river via road into Shantou?
Option 3: from Jiquo, south to Oimou(sp?), which is by highway, then south again to Sangsa(sp?), then northwest to Shatou?  Or a more direct route?  ]
Option Other: Something else entirely?
