An overwhelming since of fatigue begins to hit the group. They feel like they haven't slept in days and they all agree to find beds at the farm. Franco nods, "Yes, this is one of the side effects of library. We have resting areas like this at all of the exits," Franco motions towards the farm as he says this. "Anyway, you're welcome back anytime. Good Bye." Franco leaves back down the cavern.
The party wakes up the next day and Tammytharn eagerly messages Galse. Galse is first shocked and then pleased to hear from her. He confirms they have been gone for almost half a month. He's become the head chief at the Inn and there has been talk of him becoming a partial owner of the Inn. Things seem to be going great with him. As the spell's duration winds down, Galse also mentions that he learned of a large silver dragon that is suppose to be living near Ximes. There seem to be a group of people that worship it.
The group all wakes up and quickly they are traveling again.

A silver dragon, that might be problematic... Kalar has heard that they hunt down evil, so necromancers might not be too welcome. Still, at least they're headed in the opposite direction, so that will be for the best.
As the group gets underway, he says to Tammytharn, "Here. This is the key to the chest I purchased. It contains all of the potions and scrolls I picked up. Seeing as how you'll likely not be in combat should we be attacked, it makes the most sense for you to keep the key. If I did, I might not be able to get to it and open the chest in time for any of the potions to be of much use."
With that done, Kalar gets onto his war pony, makes sure his tower shield is at the ready, and starts to follow the wagon. He keeps one hand free to hold the reins though, and to reach for his new lance or a javelin should the need arise.

Tammytharn graciously accepts the key. As the wagon rolls along she looks inside the chest and takes inventory of what is in there.
She then pets the goat and the pig Kalar had purchased. She names the goat "Milky" but forces herself not to name the pig, since they will probably be eating it sooner or later.
She searches for a bucket to try and milk the goat, but does not find one, which is probably for the best. She milked a goat a few times as a child, but that was a long time ago, and never in the back of a moving wagon.
Then she takes out ink and pen and a few sheets of paper, and writes down notes to herself about what they have learned recently.
Her first page of notes looks something like this:
On a second piece of parchment, she writes the name "Dan Rottlerwits" over and over. When she finds herself writing "Tammytharn Peridot-Rottlerwits" she tears up the parchment in embarrassment, crumples up the remains, and tosses them out of the wagon when nobody is watching.

Going to Vyones, will search for Viper Circled Mirror
Gaspard du Nord = leader (of what?)
Nathaire = exiled clerical leader (grave robber) (should have asked about!)
Moriavis = leader of exiled spellcasters. friendly for now, but can we trust her? She knows how to make potions of time travel. Time flows slowly in her hideout (Library)
Azedarc and his little lackey Jehan = People that Moriavis hates. Evil? Also know about potions of time travel? Why does she want Azedarc dead?
Galse is doing great. Says a large silver dragon that is suppose to be living near Ximes. There seem to be a group of people that worship it
Dan Rottlerwits = Invisible man, says the quest is poinless. Says his party defeated Prince Levistus hundreds of years ago. Who is Prince Levistus?

The day goes on. The party leisurely trots down the road. Everyone finding their own way to past the time. In the afternoon, a large castle is seen int he distance. As the party gets closer they can see the city of Vyones. Encircled by large city walls, the city is surrounds by farms, homes and tents. The city walls seem to be more than 30ft tall and made of worked stone. Guards can be seen hustling around on the wall, something seems to be up.

Interesting...
"Hrulgin, hang back here. Hide in the forest as well as you can, but keep to the trees. Here, take this sunrod, I've been hanging on to it for some time. When we get back and get close to the forest, I'll use a lantern and flash it three times. When you see that, activate the sunrod and flash it towards us three times so that we'll know where you are and be able to regroup there."
Kalar turns to the rest and says, "As for us, shall we proceed? And are we going to bring the wagon with us? Or leave it hidden in the woods with Hrulgin?"
While he waits for the party to deliberate, Kalar surveys the scene, trying to discern what he can. Further, he tries to see if the graveyard is anywhere nearby.

"It is hard to KNOW what to do with the wagon until we KNOW more about the city. Perhaps we SHOULD hide it now. We can always come back for it if we find a safe place to keep it inside the city."
Tammytharn looks around to see if there are any local farmers or peasants nearby that they can ask what is happening.
"Let's ASK someone POLITELY, and without using ropes or handcuffs."
Tammytharn rearranges her hair to make sure that her elven ears are as hidden as possible, and tucks her Holy Symbol and Mage's Hand inside her robe.

Kalar notices Tammytharn hiding her ears, and then thinks for a while.
"Perhaps I should stay behind with Hrulgin and the wagon, at least until we're sure that halflings are tolerated. We knew for sure that a werewolf wouldn't be welcome in a city, but we have no idea about how they feel with obviously non-human individuals."
"Tammytharn, are you still able to cast a Sending spell? If so, that will be an ideal way to keep in contact. If halflings are indeed not too strange an occurrence, then I shall join you as soon as I can. In the meantime, Hrulgin and I will wait here hidden in the woods."
Kalar leaves out that he also intends to see if the graveyard is outside of the city, and if it is, that he plans to attempt to bring some new minions under his control.

Lynda makes sure to hide her ears as well, and wears her anti-magic amulet.
"So, I'm ready to hit the city." Lynda says. "Shall we proceed?"

"I only had one Sending prepared, and I used it to speak with Galse, but I will prepare another tomorrow and I will let you know first thing in the morning what we have learned"
Tammytharn joins Lynda on foot, and looks back to see if Rachelle and Voulton are coming into the city with them, or waiting outside with Kalar.

"Very well, I will prepare one myself, in case I need to contact you. I shall set up a temporary camp here."
With that, Kalar begins seeing to the horses, his pony, the goat, and the pig, providing them all with feed from the supply he purchased. He also gets out a tent from the supplies purchased, and begins setting it up.

Hrulgin clambers up a tree, making sure to get out of sight from casual observation. He tries to hide as best as he's able, while being on the lookout for anything interesting that might be on the horizon or even in the general vicinity.

The graveyard can't be seen yet. Either it is further from the city then was suggested, is on the other side of the city, or is too small to really pinpoint from the party's current location.
The party looks at the city closely, and notice that dozens of people are currently entering the city. The people in the farms and house surrounding the city seem to be all entering it with some haste. The party is wary about entering the city. The party makes several preparations before entering the city. Wanting to blend in as much as possible.

"Could they be expecting an invasion?" asks Tammytharn. "Or perhaps that dragon that Galse mentioned is on the way?"
If any locals are near enough to call out to, Tammytharn will ask them what is happening.

"I can see the top of everybody's heads from here. If you wanna get in unnoticed, I'd better stay here with Kalar."

Lynda decides to test out her spyglass, and use it to look ahead at Vyones to see if she can spot anything.
