Who do I speak with about ingredients for baked goods? I am more than willing to share the results of such endeavors or otherwise come to a trade agreement.

On an unrelated curiosity:

Does this place have a name?

Has anyone given constellations names or configurations?

I am a mapmaker by trade, which is why I ask.

I have no doubt that you are capable of many things.

[Apparently he can't resist the double talk with Malik. The man is clearly skilled at it.]

Ah, well, I am not as capable outside of the village. I'm not really equipped to head out of the village without someone to assist me. I'm not good with the wilderness, or protecting myself without my magics.

And I do. Most of my mathematical skill is skewed toward this specific sort of thing.

Only a handful technically.

[And terrible jokes.]

I would not be surveying anything farther than a day away until the weather thaws. Farther than that is asking for trouble.

I can protect you well enough, and I expect at least a few would end up joining us.

A kind offer. And I would hope that I could be useful, as I've gotten skilled at being able to track distances rather accurately based on the length of my stride.

However there is talk of creating a secondary farm to the south, where the climate is milder. I am under of how such a drastic difference can occur in a relatively short distance, but, well there you have it. I could at least possibly assist you in mapping between here and there. As this place would be a farm and we would need people staying there, I have offered to assist in the creation of a bunkhouse, perhaps even storage space. I fear that will consume much of my time in the immediate future.

[And now that he's thinking of it, he should probably ask someone to watch over his house while he's off on that task as well.]

Distance is important, but not everyone can necessarily convert it as easily as you or myself from time or stride.

Snow and cold will make it tricky, but I can start on that easily enough. There is not much elevation change between the two from what I have been able to tell.

Re: UN: Malik

Not much elevation change in general, but over small areas in the open fields i have been finding some fluctuations. Which has been a pain to try and determine without proper surveying equipment.
