Corco's Villa (IC)

[ericthered]

No one bothers you that night.

"the river" isn't just a body of water, its a more densely populated area. Its a good place to pick up more fodder for horses and food for yourselves. Its a few hundred feet across. When you reach the river, an old woman is waiting for you, along with a boat.

"I have a question for each of you." She says. "and a warning, if I am pleased with your responses*"

Yi mutters: "She's more powerful than she looks."

She Points at Vassorious: "Have you chosen to trust fate because you feel powerless, or because you desire its result?"
She Points at Halcyone: "What is the greatest desire of your Patron in this land?"
last, she points at Yi: "Do you have more to fear from the powerful, or from the unexpected?"

*she's asking for a small amount of money or a gift... but in line with the beggar she's presenting herself as.
