Characters: Elydrieth, Limbes, and Zhadarra
To their surprise—and luck—the night passes uneventfully, and Kai leaves the group by sunrise, to get back to Wildeholt.
Jynosora leaves the cave as well, pretty early in the morning, to find someone to trade with; she leaves a note for Sola. Sola and Senna then leave as well, determined to get to Vintiver by lunchtime.
On the road to Vintiver, the last two to leave the cave, Limbes and Zhadarra, meet an elven rogue who is obviously lost: Elydrieth. Ely decides to join the group on their way to the village.
They talk about their lives as they travel through what was clearly farmland, and they find out that Elydrieth is a nomad from the Green Dales, way up in the North, past the Waking Sea.
After several hours of travel, the group ends up on a farm, where they are attacked by four strange, undead-looking wolves
Limbes manages to spot them just before they attack, but Ely and Zhadarra are surprised. The battle is rough, and Zhadarra takes a lot of damage, while Limbes takes out two of the wolves. Then she kills one with her Shock spell and watches as Ely beheads the last of the creatures.
After the battle, the group explores the main farmhouse and finds the main room covered in blood and littered with four bodies. Three women and a child, they conclude it is a mother with her children. They look around and loot the place for food and other useful items. Then they fill their waterskins at a nearby well, where they find two more bodies, this time two young men.
Since it is getting dark, they decide to hurry to go to Vintiver and come back the following day, to look around some more.
A short while later, they arrive safely at the inn in Vintiver...
