"We'll meet at the southwest gate at 6:00 sharp! Let's go as fast as the horses will let us and be there the day after tomorrow, and you'll get your bonus. Let's see, all copper plates right?" He looks at Ashley's tag on her ear and shakes his head and mutters, "I'll never understand kids these days."
Freya speaks up, "did we hear news from the trail recently?"
Gundren looks nervous, "well no, and that's the trouble, my brothers sent word two days ago but I haven't heard since. I am supposed to hear from them daily. I'm not saying they didn't forget but the currier didn't show this morning."
Freya's brow furrows, "the southern currier didn't show here this afternoon either, he's not usually late."
"I'm not too worried but I felt it right to be up front about it, we could see some action if we're not lucky," he admitted.
Feel free to ask any questions, formally accept, and agree to meet him at the southern gate bright and early. The rain has let up so it shouldn't be an issue.
