Hey, I just wondered what was going on with the expedition and what I can do to help. What kind of transport are we taking, or are we walking the whole way?

We might as well prepare as much as we can, right?

And is it okay if we add one more to the group?

If anyone needs help learning how to ride a horse or wants some practice in the water, let me know.

Aradia should have the details, though I'm afraid she's on a loss that makes her both very small and unable to leave the boundaries of the city currently. We're to wait until that has finished, I believe.

I would strongly suggest bringing a mount, if you can ride. It will be much faster than going by foot. Additionally, I'm told there may be an, er, aquatic section depending on which route we take, so it won't hurt to brush up on any sailing skills you may possess.

Well, I've been working on some boats, so hopefully I'll have enough by the time we're ready to leave.

There are lots of mounts in the stables. I'd prefer to take the horses but I don't know what everyone else would ride. There's this weird giant bird thing and a hippogriff in there.

[ruin_mania]

Yes, and I plan to take a mongoose-dragon. The type of mount shouldn't really matter, because riding will get us there quicker than walking regardless of what it is we're riding. A horse should be fine.

Oh? Well, that's good news! Are you planning to take a cart to carry them in as well, or how shall they be transported?

[waterproofed]

Then I guess I'd better offer riding lessons, too.

Uhhh. I don't know.

[ruin_mania]

It certainly wouldn't hurt! Though I think we'll have a few carts for those who cannot ride.

Well, I suppose we had better figure that out. How much material are we considering?

[waterproofed]

Ah, I'll leave the carts to someone else.

I've got two boats done so far. I need to test a third to make sure it'll float.

[ruin_mania]

I'll make sure it gets done.

[That reminds her, she should probably take Quagsire to make sure she doesn't have to actually ride in a boat.]

About how many people would you say they'll hold?

[waterproofed]

Depending on their size and weight, I think anywhere from three to five. Hmm... maybe I should factor in supplies too...

[ruin_mania]

Not a bad idea at all, I think. Though I do hope we won't need to use them for long.

[waterproofed]

I don't mind. I just hope it goes better than when we were all on pirate ships.

[ruin_mania]

An event I must say I'm glad I missed, even if it was an opportunity for more exploration.

[waterproofed]

Heh. Being shot at with cannons is something I'd rather not relive, either.

[ruin_mania]

Well, I do hope this ship ride will be a bit safer then, hmm?

[waterproofed]

I guess we'll find out!
