Some instructions for the next round of posts: characters need to meet up with eachother in the morning at the North Gate. Feel free to include extra dialogue that I didn't include or fill in gaps in the story where I left them. Some other important things might be what they packed, what they talk about before and after departing, etc. Also, I posted a character sheet for Vulcure and wanted to emphasize that he's not my character and can be controlled entirely by anyone. Feel free to use his character sheet as reference for interactions with him.
