You set off towards the house of Golrum and Isadora where you drop Bridgit off. The girl could sense the seriousness of the situation before Morgan explained the basic version of it, but it still seems that the farm girl is not sure whether to feel sorry for Aeryn or hate her. The parents at least are fully understanding, and Isadora even offers the healer a cursebreaker weaved from a bright green vine and small mottled feathers.<br/>With that done you quickly visit the remaining farms, Morgan trying to help their crops with mundane methods, whilst Aeryn helps with a rotten tooth and a sprained hind leg along with several minor scratches and old scars. Xen meanwhile chases the monkeys away for want of something better to do. With that work done you return to the Hill Fort, again falling victim to one of the scamper monkeys’ fruit bombards. “Ungrateful mutts,” Xen mumbles, not appreciating it when you point out that the slang usually refers to canine creatures.<br/>You arrive at the human settlement about 2 hours before sunset. The gates take a while to open and once they have been lowered you see that they are manned by only half the usual number. Inquiring about this you are led up a flexible but stable ladder onto the top of the earthen walls, where there is a 7ft wide area on which you can stand. Down by the sea front behind the settlement you can see a massive group of people, just over 400, gathered around the water’s edge. “The elves brought in one of the casualties from the storm. A human, made it to land but died shortly after,” a guard informs you, the Hill Fort’s usual purple banner exchanged for one dark blue, almost black. “He wanted to be buried by his own kin, so the elves sent him to us. Castley is talking to the people,”
