The usual. Clean and sharpen weapons, make sure to have extra rations and water in his pack. Load things on his camel so he can get to them quickly and easily. He will take the time to get to know his steed and bribe it with treats.

Time: Late Afternoon
After several hours in town, North returns to the Astorio Manor. He finds Flynn there preparing for their departure, and shortly thereafter Sweet William arrives as well.
The stable is large with a dozen stalls on each side of a surprisingly clean walkway. The left side stalls have camels and domesticated hybrid camelorps (a type of short necked camel milked like a cow), and the right side stalls have more
exotic creatures such as ostrich, horses, an elephant, and something resembling a type of gold and orange striped lion with six legs.
Just outside the stables, four camels have been hooked up to draft sleds. The sleds are piled high with rations, waterkins, and folded yurts, amongst other supplies.

Re: DaleOfShadows: The next morning
OOC: I lived in Florida all of my life. I was here when we got clobbered by, which I believe were 20 hurricanes all at once. There was Bonnie, Charley, Frances, Ivan, Jeanne, Little Joe, Big Joe, G.I. Joe, Clancy, Bob, etc.
This one coming up is just a babby.

¡°Yes,¡± Rana says, raising a finger. ¡°I was coming to that,¡± she explains. ¡°There are bandits that prey on the pilgrims. Wait. Let me back up. A strange happening occurred in Morningstar Hollow about ten or fifteen years
ago. The fabric of Mystra¡¯s Weave was plagued. Casters in the region were physically scarred by this event. Their scars were somehow imbued with Wild Magic. Most went mad and either killed themselves or were mercifully killed by others. But word spread and
now Ne'er-do-wells and other miserably downtrodden make a pilgrimage to Morningstar Hollow hoping to somehow acquire one of these magical scars. As I mentioned, bandits prey on these pilgrims. Every now and again the mercenary groups will send a patrol to
Morningstar Hollow to?discourage?the bandits -and- the pilgrims. Lunatics and madmen sometimes become fanatical about this magic. Even so, they don¡¯t deserve to get robbed and murdered

¡°I tended to him last evening,¡± Brother Ashley explains. ¡°His mine is lost. He keeps babbling on about a storm giant of fiery sand. His limbs are badly burned, but they should heal in time. His mind, however, I¡¯m uncertain
about.¡±
?
Lady Rana¡¯s face pales. ¡°I¡¯ve not heard of the giant. Is the city in any danger?¡± she asks.
?
¡°I couldn¡¯t say,¡± Ashley replies. ¡°We don¡¯t even know if there IS a giant. The wild magic may have corrupted the poor fellow¡¯s brain.¡±
?
¡°The giant Sand Crawlers are bad enough,¡± Rana says. ¡°Actual fire Giants would be devastating.¡±
?
¡°Giant . . . sand . . . crawlers . . .?¡± Ashley asks nervously.
?
¡°Scorpions,¡± Rana explains. ¡°Horrible monstrosities,¡± she shivers. ¡°Over ten feet tall. Three venomous tails. Arms with dagger-like claws for pincers. They generally keep to the deep desert far from the cities, and
are supposedly nocturnal,¡± she explains. ¡°They feed on camelorps, a type of long tailed desert unicorn. Every few seasons though a caravan will get decimated by one, and then the Eagles go out to eliminate it.¡±

And what do you do?

Re: DaleOfShadows: The next morning
"Thank You.", Tabby smiled back at Lady Rana before she turned her attention to the group.
"I wanted to get a book or two before we start our big adventure, but there was one thing I was asked to do and I already forgot what it was.", she sighed, "Anyone remember what it was?"
She glanced over at the Dragonborn,"And Miss
Cerina, are you planning on doing anything today? I would appreciate it if you come along as it would be unwise for me to wander out alone."

Tabby silently ate as she listened to Lady Astorio spoke. Bugs wearing clothes. That's interesting. Bandits. People going crazy in the coconuts. Fire sand. Fire giants. Well, at least things would be interesting.
