First point: if we know each other, can you please let me know you made it safely back to the village? This is faster than me running around knocking on everyone's doors and camping out on your front steps until I confirm it myself. (But I will do that too if you don't respond, jsyk.)

Second point: Does anyone have any experience or tips about the area to the south? Landmarks, wildlife, plants to avoid, things like that.

I'm sure you can take care of yourself, but you count as part of that check-in too, fyi.

Also, in better news, this is me telling you I need to take your measurements. (Don't make it weird, it isn't weird.)

You've been helping me train this whole time, but I promise I have not forgotten our deal! When's the next time you're going to be in town?

It is a good power. It helped my group get back safely. Mostly safely.

[whipshots]

'Mostly'?

Everyone is hedging their answers like this, and it makes me wonder.

There is definitely some emotional issues raised by this situation. I saw much in the way of trauma.

[whipshots]

So: physically okay, emotionally not?

[plate_builder]

Indeed. Steph got away the easiest, and myself after that.

[whipshots]

Good. The rest will get better.

I agree. One learns to overcome what hurts them.
