Pontius could only give a small smile and nod his head when he heard that they were sticking with a plan like his, though knew the risks that it would result from it. No doubt people were going to be upset when it sounded like they were going to be doing nothing but sit out the storm, but honestly what more could they do? They were just normal people and weren't trained to handle the various kreatures...that unfortunate boy helped proved that a few days ago when he brought Detta's wrath upon them all.<br/><br/>Looking up at Thane then, Pontius raised a hand then. "What shall we be doing in the meantime? You know the majority isn't going to be too enthusiastic about hearing this course of action...there's already been too many fights breaking out over water and its only going to get progressively worse unless you can make more water appear, which requires going out into that dust storm." he said, looking out towards the door then as they all knew what went on out there. "If the usual gatherers are too afraid to head out into that then I also shall volunteer to head out to what wells we know and get what water I can from them." he said and then gave a slight shrug. "It's not like I'm getting any work done in the forge. To work in that heat means to stay hydrated, and considering that we can't afford to give water out freely, I stopped to save what would have been wasted."
