"I'll come along and help," Grogza offered quickly, as if she didn't want to be left behind and alone.<br/><br/>"That's decided then," Ledude said, rolling up the map and putting it away back in his inventory. "I need to stock up on supplies and craft a few more potions before we head out. Let's meet up at the wharf. Oh, and before I go..." a message popped up in the corner of Rayne's field of vision.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Message</div><div class="spoiler_body">Ledude has invited you to join his party! (3/4)</div></div><br/>With that, Ledude and Moonshadow headed out first, leaving Rayne with Grogza.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>While Rayne went about her final preparations for leaving Melangwi Outpost for good, she had a chance to learn a bit more about Grogza - or Ashley, as she was known in real life. Like Rae-lynne, she had been introduced to EHO by her own adventurous friend. Although she was a bit reluctant to try the "adult" side of EHO at first, her friend had been slowly wearing her resistance down, and the chain bikini was a gift for finally agreeing not to automatically safe-word her way out of her next loss. She had been out in the jungle solo to level up when she found that she couldn't log out, and got collared after being ambushed by a tribe of Kechs who kept kiting out of her range and peppering her with arrows.<br/><br/>The docks were not too far away, a short walk downstream from Melangwi Outpost. The riverboat<em>Crocodile Express</em>was tied up to the wharf. It was a glorified green barge, with a canopy to provide relief from the sun overhead and a large paddlewheel on its stern. Ledude and Moonshadow were already there, but there were no NPCs to be seen.<br/><br/>"We found these all over the place," Ledude said, throwing down an armful of broken arrows on the ground. "If I had to guess, the Kechs went through this place last night. Riverboat looks undamaged though, if we can sail it."<br/><br/><hr/><br/>(A night's rest should restore all HP, to make things easier.)
