“On the road toward vengeance then, eh? I see. I see. I’d say it’s a just cause, if not a bit foolhardy. If your quarry is headed into the ruins there’s a fair chance that fate will solve your quest before you get the chance. But who am I to argue? If you plan to do any prospecting while you're there you should let me introduce you to Armin Gainsbury. He runs a a supply company for adventurers like yourself out of Emberwood and can likely offer you some good advice." The caravan driver takes a breath. "You know I had a brother myself once. Not a twin, mind you, but we were thick as thieves back in the day…” Eren Marlowe can talk, and talk he does for two long weeks. 

Eventually the countryside turns dreary and desaturated. You pass many abandoned villages with dilapidated homes, crumbling farmsteads with sallow empty fields, and forests of dead trees. Thorny brambles and harsh scrub grass are all that grow along the mudslick road. Drizzling rain fills most days, and the wind howls at night. Aside from the creaking wagon wheels, you only hear the calling of crows. 

The draft horses huff as Eren’s incessant voice drones on. Overhead, Many Colors cries out into the overcast sky. In your mind’s eye, an image flashes of three men with crossbows lying in wait on either side of the road up ahead. An old farmstead looms in the near distance behind them.

I'm not sure how this is supposed to work but, make an initiative roll just incase. Combat is not required, I just want to save time incase your actions steer things that direction.
