[center][i]Interacted with:[/i] [@Rune_Alchemist], [@Guy0fV4lor][/center]

Nick listened to the conversation. [u]Donovan[/u] revealed the details of the village's peril, something about Dawn and the surrounding forest going under the waves because of the God Of Knowledge looking for what was buried beneath the sea, courtesy of Delpithi and Rifelshka, Goddesses of the Oceans and the Underworld respectively. The deities apparently hid some pretty nasty stuff taken from monsters that once plagued the land. Oh man, this was larger than Nick expected.

Someone named Lazhira had taken a group to investigate the dangerous old temple while 'the pair from Chagawa' were interested in helping. Nick guessed that the pair would be the two outsiders that Haruno pointed out to them earlier. Him and [u]Donovan[/u] should probably go see them then. Lady Mie, the trader Haruno was working for, appeared to be just that, a trader although she might have stuff that Nick and [u]Donovan[/u] could use.

The last gesture from Lord Enli was handing the duo a small leather pouch of gold coins. Likely to purchase equipment from someone named Bolcha who made armaments. "[color=skyblue]Alright, then. Thanks, Lord Enli. And uhhh, pray for us, will ya?[/color]"

After Nick and [u]Donovan[/u] left the longhouse, the former was quick to speak. "[color=skyblue]Alright, Don. I'll go look for the 'Chagawan pair'...[/color]" Nick made air quotes. "[color=skyblue]...and see what they know while you go buy us some armor or something. Maybe also see what this Bolcha guy knows about the situation, yeah?[/color]"

If there were no objections to Nick's plan, he would go look for the pair in the village. Should he find Haruno again, he would ask her where they went.
