[pnpgm] Update #7 – Varo Mineholder

[Bessie Hadley]

Varo agreed with Rocky about how to treat the robbers’ goods, although she’s willing to only salvage the best of the armor (most of it no good except as scrap pieces) & the swords for later sale & group disbursement of funds - “Yes, Rocky, I agree that they are best for sale later & the funds shared out – excluding the price for anyone who may take one of the swords – perhaps? Or not? What do the rest of you think? And do we bury them, burn the bodies? I don’t know all your beliefs. Might be better to dispose of them, however, than leave them for wildlife, since we’re still planning on sleeping here tonight. Maybe a short prayer we can give in silence for them?”

Then the stranger appears.

Varo keeps her bow drawn & aimed toward the stranger, till he holds his arms out & speaks. Then, although lowering it slightly, she keeps it aimed toward him as she waits for Tarek’s response on accepting this man or not as part of the group. So far, this journey is not boring, she thinks.
