This is going to be a rather simple and straightforward request. Nether is, as of now ("now" being the third day of summer, for the extra-picky ones) camping in a rather nondescript place currently defined only as "between Syliras and Zeltiva". As soon as that scene is dealt with, the focus will switch to a journey toward one of the two cities (not yet decided which one, but I have a -slight- bias in favor of Zeltiva).
Random people popping up at solitary camps are a great staple of fantasy, and would therefore be welcomed as such.. as would fellow travellers: the more the merrier for long trips, after all.
Shorter appearances would also be accepted with open arms (travellers headed in the opposite direction, rangers patrolling a certain area.. up to your imagination, really).
The only thing that should wait for now are bandit attacks.. you don't -really- want to skewer the poor mage with the combat skills of a dead rock, do you? ;p
For those interested, the thread has already started here.
