Fern sets the horse going and she leans back a little, lightly holding onto the reigns and mostly letting the horse navigate the land on its own. "I just don't think we'll be of too much help," she admits. "Two clans is a lot of people and there can't be that many survivors living at Reave. I just don't see the point in smothering the poor folks in help. Besides, if Essence hadn't ordered it, would we really be bothering with them?"

Sierra looks thoughtful for a moment then says, "You're right that two more people won't have much of an effect. I don't know if I would or would not do anything if the dragon hadn't ordered it. On one hand, they are in that condition because of something we did; however, one the other hand, they have caused a great deal of suffering for not only our Fire-kin but the other Elementals as well. It's hard to think about helping a people that all you know about them is the pain which they have used their abilities to cause and I've seen too many people who lost someone to the Clears. All I'm really certain about when it comes to what I want to become of the Clears is I want for them to stop taking slaves and for the slaveholders to apologize... I didn't mean to start rambling, sorry."

"It's fine," Fern sighed. "You're more or less echoing my thoughts - and that of our fire-brethren as well, I bet. Perhaps all the elementals." She frowned, then shakes her head and gives a nervous laugh. "Now, look. Suddenly I'm all philosophical? That's what happens when one doesn't have enough to do. They start overthinking things, aye?"

[aivea]

"Yep. At this rate we need to start worrying that we might go insane from not having enough to do," Sierra says jokingly, trying to lighten the mood a little. "I suppose we could take a quick peek along the way to Ilyamen and keep going if everything's under control."

[Kender Bard]

Fern nodded, considerably cheered by that suggestion. "Aye, then we'll have at least looked without really taking time out of our plans. So should we head straight to Lacu- er, Reave?"

[aivea]

"Sure. The sooner we start, the better," Sierra says, glad that Fern had cheered up.

[Kender Bard]

((Should we have them post in Reave or join a topic?))

[aivea]

(Hm... It would be a little awkward to jump into an ongoing thread just to look around long enough to see the majority of the situation is under control and keep going. Do you want to start the thread?)

[Kender Bard]

((Okay.))
