[pnpgm] intro & travel prep

[David Sanders]

Kiet nods his head and says, "This sounds like a plan.  I'll be there."  He raises his eyebrow then looks over to Z'leyra and continues, "Actually, I'm already there!"...then smiles.

She then reaches into her satchel and withdraws a necklace made of leather with an ornate knot which she places over her head and around her neck. She  then says in Marentian (and signs using sign language) to the dancer "Please, speaking in your own language, introduce yourself and tell me a bit of your history. This necklace will allow me to Understand your language." As she does she grasps the knot in the necklace with one hand and emphasizes the word 'Understand' whilst speaking in Marentian.

After the introduction she will speak to her in her own language introducing herself and inviting her to the manor for travel preparations. She will then introduce her to the rest of the party.

When I came the other direction from Ticasi to here I had been traveling by myself with FisherKing, then with one guard, both he and I on horseback. And we didn't have to deal with winter weather. Lets see, I remember encountering guards doubling as bandits, a giant, sprites (actually more dangerous than the giant) and a large group of mounted bandits. Any of those encounters could have slowed me a lot or even killed me. Similar encounters could well be met on the way to Ticasi."

Perhaps those that wish to go to Ticasi should meet me tomorrow morning at my manor, where we will make plans and start preparations for the trip. I suspect that I will need to be in Ticasi for one, maybe two weeks before the start of the new year. After that we will discuss what to do and where to go. We may end up coming back here directly. Sometime in the not too distant future I will want to visit my kin in the Kameran and let them know what happened. I can do that with Corona."
