Chhtrk shifts a little bit. "..No..me not know that.."

[Kender Bard]

"Well then," Venus murmurs, walking into an adjoining room briefly and returning with some maps. "Shall I show you the lands?" She spread out a map of Anarlina, and started pointing things out. "Here to the south is Duintha, our place of knowledge. There's a variety of schools and libraries there, and it's a place where anyone can go to become a scholar." She moved her finger up. "Next to the Tumbure Forest is Vara Keep. It's a military town, mostly inhabited by the families of soldiers but with some average citizens as well." Her fingers glossed over the tower they were currently at and rested on Taurya. "This is a woodland town, full of people who thrive off the Tumbure Forest by various means." She smiled fondly a moment. "And last we have Kalina and Port Widor. Port Widor is a port town, as it sounds, and Kalina is the capital city."

Chhtrk carefully thinks about all of what he has been told. He needed to go to a place where he can spread the plague further but also where he himself can more easily survive once suspicion would fall on him... "Me thinks...uhh.." He points to the map where Taurya is. "That one."

[Kender Bard]

Venus smiles and gives a nod. "That's a good one. We've found most Beasts are comfortable with the woods so close to them. I think you'll be very happy. Go downstairs and tell Lyal that you'll need provisions to get to Taurya."

[iamtuo]

Chhtrk nods to Venus, searching deep in his mind for words that may seem appropriate. "...I..grateful..you help." Once he speaks those words, he makes his way back down to Lyal.

The guard eyed the ratman briefly, though not with suspicion, but mild curiosity. "So did you pick out a place to live?" the guard asked.

[iamtuo]

Chhtrk nods. "I choose..Taurya.."

[Kender Bard]

"all right," the guard remarks simply, rubbing his hands together as he strode towards a supply cabinet and snatched up a few items; backpack, belt pouches, and the like. "I'll get your provisions. Anything special you want me to add to your things? Bear in mind, we don't have that much beyond the necessities."

[iamtuo]

Chhtrk shakes his head. "No..I be fine."

[Kender Bard]

The guard disappeared again, returning with a pack of supplies which he hands over freely to Chhtrk. "Good luck to you, sir. I hope you can find a better, happier life in Anarlina."

[iamtuo]

Chhtrk nods in gratitude and smiles. "Yes...I think I be much happy here."
