Baradis (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=280528.msg13792570#msg13792570) doesn't bother butchering the elven greeting. Languages were never a really good point of his. "Greetings, Miss Zillah. The tower's not also spitting out fire ant-cat-birds too, is it?" There was probably also some other bit of address that was missing if the elf was bothering with things in the forest, but if Zillah wasn't telling, it wasn't yet worth guessing or inquiring.<br/><br/>And then a few moments of maths and walking towards the elf, and hopefully a more central table, pass as Baradis works over what the group supplies would be at if spread over everyone. "Now, I've got at least a wagon and the horses, and enough to keep all of us for going and returning... at least assuming that there's not a few days of time spent on the tower or delays or anything of the like. So there's that I can provide."<br/><br/>And then Baradis would sit down quickly on an unoccupied chair. There was a little thing missing that made going on not worth it. The (rough) ledger was still in the van, and so there was nothing to show. "I also have some extra money if more space is needed right now."
