Chereads / Horses in the Falcon / Chapter 142 - 143

Chapter 142 - 143

As the next morning dawns, you're pleased to see that the rain has stopped—even if the mist has once again rolled in off the marsh. Something is different this morning, though, and it's not until you see the floating houses of Kriegswater lying at an angle on the muddy ground that you realize what's going on. It's low tide, and the water level has dropped. It's possible that some paths that were previously submerged will now be visible to you.

As you prepare to leave, Udd comes running up to you. "Where you headin'?" he asks. You explain that you're trying to leave Blightmarsh. "Don't know why you'd want to do that," he says, "but I'm told the quickest route is north. Don't go east, though. That way goes to Ammeldene. Word is they got sick with something, and we've heard nothing from 'em for three moons or more."

You thank him for his advice, and ready the caravan to depart. There are a number of routes leading away from Kriegswater—to the north, northeast, and east.
