[pnpgm] Game Update #104 - File #792 - Party leaves Fair grounds

[Wout Broere]

Unali:
"If you really feel that studying this object will help our quest, I 
will not bar you. I would indeed like to see that a group of at least 
three or four people sticks together, as there is strength in numbers.

But I do ask that you think this over and weigh the benefits and the 
risks. Stealing the detector will probably bring a group on our trail to 
steal it back and get the reward for the magic users that they just 
missed today. I am sure we do not want extra attention at this moment.

And with all those sensitive to magic on the alert to see if we 
encounter more of these items, it might be just a few days, or less, 
before we encounter the next one, without any need to go back.

If you still feel the benefits are greater than the risk, why ride 
there? Ask Chion if he will bring a group to the bridge and back here in 
his usual manner. A bit more mana use in these grounds is not going to 
set any more alarms off than have already been triggered. No sense in 
wasting hours of travel time, just because we should not use magic to 
draw attention.

If we ave drawn attention, we should get away from here as soon as 
possible, and try to get rid of any clues of where we went.

So get a team together if you want and go. We will get the wagon moving. 
  A quick action and you might just catch us before we have left these 
grounds."
