"Fauna, you know Higgins and I parted on bad terms. I need to steel my nerves before I see him again. I'm just not ready to see him just yet." Edric's face looks absolutely terrified. Anyone looking can tell that he wants desperately for someone else to be doing the talking.

Punchy steps up; just the man you want to talk to anyone.
"Gels we hannae been home in quite as while. An it be important tha we compoose ounself before we sees anyone agin.
We'd be vurreh thankful if ye were tae goo ahed an tell ourn parents tha we're aloive an weel. So its nae somuch of ae shock."

Taddeo, noting Edric's discomfort smiles at both of the girls.
"Ladies, we're also a mess here. I'd prefer to get cleaned up before being introduced to anyone else."

"Oh, all right," Fauna says huffily. "I wouldn't want you to be unhappy, Edric. But don't take long! I want to find out how much money you're getting!" She sprints up the road, waving to the clown, who turns back and disappears from view.
"By the gods, take care of yourself, Red. Punchy, look after him, will ya?" Flora hisses, with a sad shake of her head, and follows her sister up the road.
Yala watches them go. "We're not going to the circus, are we," she sighs.

Taddeo shakes his head, he also looks a little down, though his eyes are on the ladies as they walk away.
"Nope. What's wrong Edric, Punchy? You folks have some history we need to know about?"

Punchy folds his arms and frowns.
"Ets all tha galoot's fault, ye ken. He dinnae want tae be tha strongman, and tha boss did. There wes scrapping an a fight, and we left. Tha galoot had to an I couldnae let him go alone."

Edric limps over to the carts. "Come on, let's get going. Higgins won't wait long after the girls get back. We need to cut across to the river. I'll get us a boat when we get there, and we can cross."
Edric pulls a fresh cloth out of the cart from his belongings, and starts to wrap it tight over his wound. "I figure we can follow the river up until we reach the road again, just outside of Cambárya. Then we just keep following the road and head on our way."
He looks at Greenleaf. "This way, we don't have to worry about finding fresh water, and Greenleaf can keep us fed. With any luck, Higgins will think we fled back toward Doche, and we'll have time to elude him."

"Dinnae fash yerself, galoot. Higgins is an idiot, and doesnae have anyone in his employ that we cannae handle.
"In fact I would enjoy tha chance to show him that again."

"We're not really going to leave the oxen behind, are we?" Yala asks.

"Aye it looks tha' way. People are after us, it's dangerous to stay on the road. I don't want to do it either but this may be our only chance."

"Well Zaljan, these ones are in front of us." Edric responds clearly. "And I don't want them to die."

"It's not that simple, though, Zaljan. Higgins won't make arrangements, and some of his men will die before they defy him. We need to go around to spare them." Edric frowns around at the whole scene. "We don't need to leave the oxen behind. I can shrink them down so they are small enough to carry. I can turn the wagons into boats and we can regrow the oxen on the other side of the river and have them drag the boats upriver as we go. But we need to get going before Higgins sees us, or else there's no point in bothering to cross the river."

"Ja, you do whateva you gonna do," Zaljan sighs with upthrown hands. "What I gonna do 'bout it? I jus' crazy old elf."
