Indeed I shall LDS. We have to pay the money as we already drank the ale (2gp) and we gave one gp to the keep for the information we received. So not paying is a non option.

I was unsure on how long travel shall take as Klar and Beowolf are on foot so 2 miles is about 20 minutes and how far is that farm? But I shall keep the hope that you have in that we should be able to make it a good bit before sunset...(I guess I do not understand what time that is. 9:30 10:00 pm?) If so then we are ok. If in scotland it would be dark already!

Its after 3pm the story says. If you take us on your horses then we can get there soon depending on the size of the village but its a village right not a city so its not like it will take all day.

Remember Klar went by himself. The rest is in the tavern. This is what the story says about the time:

I am not sure about the time of sunset either. I assume is around 6:00pm.

*scratches head* OK we go catch Klar (20 minutes top side) Then what are we doing? Do we head for that farm? These horses are not going to be able to handle to large warriors. But we could take turns riding thus we can do a very fast paced walk/jog. We all have good bodies so that should be ok. Second option we try doubling on the horses and if they appear over burdened we can go back to plan A.

The trio head from the inn after Daphne pays for the information(1gp) and Kalfie pays off the ale bill(2gp).

Once caught up with Klar they head to the farm.

Beowolf and Kalfie on one horse in the lead and Daphne, Beowolf on the second steed following. If the beasts seem overburden or begin to tire they will dismount and walk the horses. Once rested enough two will ride will the others jog beside the horses, switching when tired. First shift would be Beowolf riding and Kalfie and Klar jogging.

Their intention is to make the farm they now seek prior sunset. They hope the farmer will if they are at the incorrect location will at least let them settle in the barn for the night.

OOC: Great, we shouldn't have problems with our horses. The trip is very short, but good that you mentioned it just in case.

Horses can take load. Arent horses stronger than mules and mules can take lots of load just slow.

OOC Just for the fun here is a good comparison chart for us. Please keep in mind what a large male in combat gear and supplies would weigh. 250 to 300 each I my guess. so ....

A war horse would be different. But I think we would push 500 pound easy and more like 600 with two men and all the gear.

Well I think we are in the right place. I will go up to the door to talk to the farmer or his daughter which ever one is watching us and let them know we are here to assist them. I think keeping our hands free of weapons and announcing our presence before getting too much closer will be prudent so we do not get a arrow shot at us.

OOC how does this sound to everyone?
