[HQ Ignorance] Re : Scene 95: At the Border of Teshnos

[Loran]

Azhur listened to Imsa and then to Jareena's comment. Worries were evident on his face.
- "So... we have a choice on two both uncertain ways, he said, through the Wastelands which are said to be harsh and absolutly inhospitable even for local natives, thus short but quite probably deadly or... all along the coasts and through Kralorela which is said to be civilized but closed to foreign peoples like us. Both ways are uncertain, one will surely take us too much time while the other one will have probably take a too heavy toll on us..."

He considered the options for a while, none seeming to be satisfying.
- "Instead of rushing in either directions, a wiser decision could be to look for human settlements in the area and check there if any available means could help us... a guide for the wastelands or a boat to Kralorela would definitively change the odds... and let's not speak about a marine carpenter!"

- " Perhaps we could have a small group of scouts looking around while the rest of us gather all the stuff necessary for an expedition? What do you think?"

"It seems that our decision is made for us then, unless we can find someone who can" says Jareena. "We had best take stock of our supplies."
She looks around herself, at the dunes and the jungle. Has she seen this before in her visions? If so, were there any signs of habitation?(Visions of the Sunrise Lands 13).
