MTG Salvation

**Hilde and Kherren were let into their carriage, which soon after began moving.**

-----------------------------------

The adults inside were
> Doggett
> A mage obscured in a red hooded cloak
> A slightly portly ananke guard dressed in black and silver leathers.

The children inside were
> A little blond human boy of around 7 with an impish expression and well made linen clothing. (Gawain Cooper)
> A sullen oscaran boy of around 13, the scar on his face almost hidden by the long hair that fell in his face, dressed in rusty colored leathers. (Plaga Delskara)
> A elven girl of around 10, grinning sunnily in her light green dress. (Idrile Tiwele)
> A gangly human girl of around 16 with narrow features and long black hair, dressed in riding outfit, trying very hard not to stare at... (Alicia Corel)
> An apparently human boy of around 16, but almost preternaturally good looking, with fiery red hair and porcelain skin, dressed in silver and gold. (Felix Faerwind)

Once they were underway, and he'd finished his explanation to Hilde of the differences between the lutharin and alogean ranges, Kherren turned to Doggett.

Kherren- What path do we intend to take through the mountains?

Doggett - Yes, we will start along the road to ash, then turn off at the ford of the Ertrunken River and start heading northeast. There is a human village we will stop at briefly, then its a straight shot north, skirting Oscaran territory, until we hit the tundra.

Kherren nodded. From what he knew of alogean terrain this seemed reasonable. He made a mental note to stop at Ash on the return trip if things went well.

He waited to hear the answer to Hilde's enquiry.

Doggett - I don't know if it is one any significance. From what I've heard Saleyani say its giant, ancient, and no one has ever been able to sample it.

Kherren- And who are our charges?

He turned to look at the assembled students.

Elven Girl - I'm Idrile!

Older Boy - Felix, well met.

Older Girl - ...Alicia.

**The oscaran boy just stared out the window, the tiny blond boy stuck his tongue out.**

Kherren- Making you Gawain and you Plaga.

The garr said, gesturing to the human and oscaran in turn.

**Gawain frowned, puzzled.**

Gawain - How'd you know my name?

Plaga - They announced them when they assigned our carriages idiot.

Felix - Plaga, no need for name calling.

Plaga - Oh shove it wherever your kind shove it, golden boy.

Alicia - DON'T YOU TALK TO FELIX LIKE THAT!

Plaga - UP YOURS!

Idrile - STOP FIGHTING!

Gawain - I'M YELLING!

Doggett - ...........

Felix - ...are you okay Alicia?

Alicia - ...um....yes....thankyou.

Idrile - Thats better.

Plaga - ...pathetic.

Gawain - I'M STILL YELLING!

Kherren- That was... surprisingly informative.

Doggett - Is that what you call it. Either of you spend any time in the Alogeans before?

**The mage, in the meantime, was caught in a muffled chuckle at the students.**

Kherren- Briefly on hunting trips, and to seek the Brotherhood. Little else.

Doggett - So you wouldn't have been to the northeastern reaches then.

Kherren- Never that far, no.

Doggett - Neither have I, we will mostly be depending on Mirsch and Guardsman Corazon's personal familiarities with of the area.

Doggett - If you mean have there been field trips so far before, none this distant. If you mean are any of the children are familiar with the area, there are a number of kindir amongst them, as well as Plaga.

Kherren- So, do any of you know the area we are headed to?

Plaga - Mountains, Crap, then Ice, whats to know?

Idrile - Oooooh...whats that?

Kherren glance at the toy for a moment before turning his attention elsewhere.

Kherren- How long should the first leg of the journey take by carriage?
