Lol, no time for contemplation! Umm, from Renna to Sherahd it is probably two months' travel, not taking into full account rest stops and towns/cities visited along the way. As the crow flies it might be about two and a half to three weeks, but caravans probably go on more winding routes. As for Curdle's escape, I think we had thoughts to leave him there for a little bit so we could develop their awareness of each other with a few more dream visits. Whether they have conversations or not is entirely up to them, lol. :P That way, he can know Miria enough to use her as an anchor point for a bit of teleportation later. Before anything too detrimental to his health happens in Renna. heh They can still try figuring out different plans of getting him out on their own, as neither of them know about the teleportation, but I think we ultimately decided that would be the easiest route to go with. Since it doesn't rely on Miria being willing to head all the way back to Renna, or Curdle being brave enough to make suggestions of his own. But yeah, Sherahd is the far distant goal. I think the next town they're headed to is Hudris, or some such. Soooo, probably a few days between the next encounter for them, and no need to take them all the way to Sherahd, or for us to focus on Curdle's trouble, though if we want Miria and Curdle to focus on that, we can. I think we had a few ideas somewhere in our timeline. EDIT: Which I have just now moved to the 0th post in the character tab. I think you should be able to see and edit it. Though I've currently go it on hidden, so test that theory, aye?
