Loot and Items of Interest

• About 4 decent riding nags, 6 cavalry horses, 3 wagons and 9 draft horses. Plenty of provisions, disposables, gear and fodder.

   

• Lots of sorcery props, gear & supplies, including some crates of stuff that Estaya says not to touch (bottles, pouches, jars).

   

• You find yourselves in a wrecked fort, recently made habitable, and now not so habitable, after the AIr Elemental, the Toad Sick, and the battle. Generally, the Mercs were recruited first, and spent time setting up the fort, running supplies, etc. -- all done via HellWalk. Then most went back and helped gather Sorcerers, some of whom were kept in town, other joined en route. Then the gang HellWalked near here, and has been waiting mostly since.
