Standard Operating Procedures
Each day Z'leyra will ask Corona to scout ahead and to inform her of
what lies ahead, especially anything likely to be hazardous such as
monsters, groups of people set up in ambush positions, et cetera. Around
each campsite will also be scouted. Corona may advise about animals near
the road that may be worth hunting. While Corona is welcome to the jerky
Z'leyra has packed it is likely that rabbits and other small prey
animals will provide most of his food.
When needed loads will be redistributed amongst the horses to keep the
party from slowing below the speed of the slowest horse because of
encumbrance.
The necklace that has been enchanted for learning languages will be
shared around the party. First to get everyone speaking Marentian, then
equally to grant folks chances to learn other languages known by party
members. I suggest everyone also learn Salaqi and Donaran. [Since its
enchantment is based on the Tongues spell the chance to learn to Max EL
is the wearer's Will+Empathy.]
As a skilled herbalist Z'leyra keeps an eye out for worthwhile herbs
near the path.
Each night the party will either stop at an inn where Z'leyra will pay
for a common room (folks may pay to upgrade to private rooms if they
wish) and stabling of the horses including feeding them hay and water,
or camp with a eye to not being too obvious from the road. [Exception
Thaliba.] The campfire will surrounded by rocks and horses hobbled or
tied to stay near. Each night Z'leyra will use her Watchful Sleep brooch
and sleep. Since only those actually awake and on watch will likely be
wearing more than cloth armor the other party members are to each take a
watch such that two folks are up and armored at a time. Typically one
newbie and an old hand or two old hands.
