Lorraine mutters something about the price of pepper in Palanthas as she's walking away. First thing she does is check on her horse, making sure he's comfortable, brushed and his tack has been cleaned. Then, she looks for idle stable boys. Idle stable boys know things. Like the best place to find traveling gear cheaply.... some of them are also knowledgeable about local farriers, and Lorraine would like to be sure her horse isn't going to throw any shoes....
