JessiLeo, The adventures forthwith!

Close enough to hear this last bit, I can't help laughing. "No dress, soldier, just a cloak over shirt and pants. And if she is hiring, I guess you're the army to my navy. Good to have some young cannon fodder along." I nod casually, then address the Lady. "You've indicated a need for haste, Milady. So be it. A trading town lies about twenty miles downriver, offering good provision. If you intend us to go south, we'll be needing supplies. The Southlands have been unstable for years, so I can only imagine the affects of large armies moving through. The river lies less than an hour east of here."
