My character has never seen a city, town or even another building than the cabin she grew up in and perhaps a ruin during the time she spent wandering the wilderness, so even as we approached Thundertree, a small elvish logging settlement on the Neverwinter River, Autumn (the character) is awe struck and amazed. So when Bear points out the horizon, cast in silhouette by the setting sun, what appears to be unnaturally steep peaks I can't even recognize it as possible to be made by sapient hands I'm absolutely stunned at the huge walled city that he calls "Neverwinter" and its vast farm fields look surreal and it all absolutely terrifies me.
Where we are now is on a gently sloping lightly forested terrain on the south side of the Neverwinter river about 20 miles East. We should be there in a few days but the fact that we're trying to remain hidden is making our hike painfully slow and we've averaged only 5 miles a day.
Even Gwen is impressed and as a result talks the group out of visiting the small walled town of Thundertree. Who knows what the officials may say, what they'd to to three weak adventurers who look like hunters, laden with skins, and could be poachers for all they know. Bear's sure Neverwinter won't be trouble and Gwen agrees. Her argument was that she'd heard of Neverwinter and their fair, liberal policies but heard nothing of Thundertree, in fact it wasn't even in her memory as being marked on any map.
So here we are, it's the last day of winter which means we're a mere 4 days behind Ashley and you all. It looks like we'll be there soon.
[SheShe] Of course we made a two moon-cycle time-shift so that this would work out. I want them to be at the guild shortly after you, not on that first night, maybe not on the second day, but soon. We've already had 31 days in-game so we'll likely zoom past you temporally as well. Off to do our own quests. I'll still be with Yulya in spirit of course as I am with Bear's party.
[Joy] I still haven't decided if I will be an in-game character but it would only be with Bear's party, likely not though as they'll have 4 and that's a perfect group size.
[Gwen] I'm having so much fun, I really feel like someone important, a 2nd in command at least, and I've eavesdropped on SheShe and I love what she's planning for us. We have a good chance of meeting you all too! Of course you also might run into us if at any time our paths cross even if we zoom past you in our present, we can always interact with you in our past! This game is incredible.
So if you spot a large burly man in his 30's followed lovingly by two or three young elves then don't be surprised!
