Kosara, Good Morning to you."[/color] BlackBerry cheerfully greeted her and nodded at her request, leaning down to accept the coins he added [color=00aeef]"Why of course, I shall do my best to find something suitable. By the way, there are still some left overs from breakfast in the kitchen should you or the others wish to help yourselves to anything."[/color] Drop off the Mosswaters, deliver a letter for Lady Kathryn, picking up some spices for Kosara, on top of exhuming a corpse. Blackberry almost grimaced at the last topic of his to do list. Did they even have a shovel? The little caravan set off once again with the brisk trudging pace of Old Boy following in the trails left behind Master Urmdurus' own cart heading in the same direction out of the Vineyard and onto the main road proper. BlackBerry of course called ahead to the man with a cheery, [color=00aeef]"Good Morning to you, Master Urmdurus, All is well I hope?"[/color]. Otherwise, journey progressed as expected with BlackBerry keeping Old Boy at a steady pace but weary not to push too hard or too fast given the state of the snow covered roads, and generally not wanting to tire out the poor mule either. Hedgerows laden with snow and ice drifted lazily past them and fields of white lay all around them, almost hiding all the secrets of the world away from the weak sunlight from above. It was a stark difference to when they had arrived where everything was only just beginning to get a dusting of frost. Despite the picturesque landscape about them all, BlackBerry could feel the awkward unease of his two passengers sitting behind him, and for his own party BlackBerry ruminated extensively as to whether or not to address the issue [color=00aeef]"You both will have to forgive my ignorance but I shall need some direction. If I recall correctly you said your farm was at the end of the Laurent one, yes?"[/color] The somewhat familiar shapes of Southmoor had drawn about them and looked quite content in their own comforting wrappings of winter snow. But Blackberry was more concerned with other matters, namely the time and a quick cast skyward confirmed he was indeed running late! Hopefully Victoria wouldn't be too upset with him. Ahead of them Master Urmdurus' own cart had managed to keep a brisk pace and was almost out of sight far ahead of them. BlackBerry would of course follow the directions given to him by the pair, even offering, [color=00aeef]"If there is anywhere otherwise you should prefer to part ways please do say."[/color] before the more familiar territory from the Ankheg battle came about them making BlackBerry shudder at the memory of the horrid giant bugs. But another very different topic occupied most of his thoughts; it was obvious to him that Babal had been quite upset by his dreams last night and was still somewhat shake by it all. At risk of eating his own foot, BlackBerry turned in his seat and tried to offer some words of reassurance, [color=00aeef]"How are you faring this morning Master Barbal? Fresh air agreeing with you I do hope? Try to put your mind at ease as much as you can for the dreams should not return this evening. If on the very unlikely chance that they do you are of course most welcome to send word and we shall do what we can to aid you. And of course, settle the matter surrounding the area once and for all too."[/color] Soon enough a pair of familiar shapes took form ahead of him, one a swine tied to a wagon and the other a very cold looking but otherwise fashionable musician. [color=00aeef]"Good Morning Victoria."[/color] BlackBerry called, and drew the caravan to a stop beside her. [color=00aeef]"Apologies for the delay, have you been waiting long?"[/color]
