It looks like I will be joining the expedition party this time. There's at least one person going whom I wish to keep an eye on, and I suppose I am correct in assuming there will be a lot of bumps and scrapes along the way.

I have to confess I am not much of an outdoors type, but I am sure I will learn along the way, hmm?

Honestly, no. I'd rather stay where my powers can help people.

I can understand that. It does seem like someone is in trouble, however.

... if this is not an incredibly obvious trap, that is.

ditto for Simon

True, but I want to be cautious. Those towns are close, according to the map. What if whatever it was attacks the castle while everyone's gone?

[pompous_today]

There will be others staying behind, though, no?

[spongetastic]

Probably. There are people who can't go into the Dead Zone for one reason or another.

Then I will hope nothing happens to the castle in our absence... and that nothing happens to those of us leaving. I am sure I am tempting fate either way.

[spongetastic]

Just stay as safe as possible.

[pompous_today]

I promise. I have people looking out for me.
