You gather just outside of town, everyone takes a moment to double check the supplies to make sure you didn''t miss anything in a small field just beyond the outskirts of the village. Once everyone is sure you are not missing anything you start to travel in the direction of your next adventure. You run into a few wandering encounters but nothing to serious, as your group stops to camp for the night. You expect to see Feofan pull out the map of our camp, but to everyone''s disappointment Feofan isn''t pulling anything out. All of you look confused at each other, searching for some answers.'

'The group immediately starts moaning and complaining how he hadn''t been doing any forward planning, "Great, just when it got good we need to stop... You are aware that we play this game mostly for the adventures."'
