Although Isma is a strange to this land she does know where it is - and
the people that inhabit it.

"To our east are the Hachaun Shan mountains. Beyond that is the most
serene kingdom of Kralorela and further north the Bliss of Ignorance."

"About 30 leagues to the north is the small city of Lei Tabor; populated
by barbarians who have adopted a civilised life and outcasts and their
children from Kralorela. Mixed stock, and a syncretic religion,
partially of the solar pantheon, some of the nomad gods, some who follow
the fire gods of Teshnos, some who wish to join with the dragon's way of
the east"

"We have been fortunate so far - these lands have plenty of nomads who
would delight in capturing a group like us and taking us to Lei Tabor.
There is a good slave market there and right makes right in these
lands."

"There is another chance; that we may encounter merchants from Teshnos
who sometimes take this route. Thus when we make camp tonight, do we
make ourselves obvious, say through a smoky fire? Or do we continue as
we have and hide?"

The Godlearner takes his leave and begins to walk towards the moutains
knowing that if there is any rainfall in these lands that they are
likely to be closer to such majestic forms.

After half a day of searching, as the rest of the party languishes, he
is fortunate and has found a small intermittent creek; nearly entirely
dry of course, but with some digging some water can be found. There is
vegetation about and it is possible with sunset that there could be
small animals as well.
