About as late as I'd expected unfortunately, but here's an intended post!

You won't be leaving alone however, hence the need to gather supplies otherwise if you were traveling alone you really could just walk out of town by yourself and thrive without trouble in the world. No, having to drag mortals along after you means providing for them, to a degree higher than you naturally would have if you want to keep them around without divine manipulation. And how much you'll need depends on how many you want to bring with you... all of them!
All exceptional people in their own way, that you seek out based on the rumors running about town. Some easier than others, some with support or protest from others
<span class="mu-b">"Tyne! Well they cannot have much need of me here, so I will accompany you and your little goddess."</span> proclaims Lord Darry, the bold young noble, familiar with the paladin. As the youngest son of the Swifthawks, he has little prospect for his future so will take his chances with you.
<span class="mu-s">"Of course ye grace, yer foes are mine."</span> says the simple, honest soldier Jean, knowing you from your first days aiding the military of Eindward and fighting beside you all the way. You already had the huge fellow's loyalty.
<span class="mu-b">"I can't speak for this lot you've gathered, but if you're after any more demigods..."</span> mutters the severe veteran, Senor Montez. A foreign knight, he's one resistant to your appeal and doesn't have any favor for your group, but knows of your deeds.
<span class="mu-s">"Ye've no trouble with me? Ye got food has ye?"</span> asks the afflicted plague survivor, a lowborn lass named Keely. You need not charm her as she's simply glad anyone would offer help, after she was to be cast out and probably killed upon being discovered from the raid.
<span class="mu-r">"Wh-What about my mum? C-Can you give her a-anything before we leave?"</span> stammers the young boy, Rene, afraid of leaving his family and home. Similar to Keely however, he will be in danger now the truth is known about him, and there is relief that you of all beings would take him.
So then by love, beauty, health or otherwise, you manage to convince the lot of them to accompany you and Sir Tyne from Eindward. All things considered, it's not as though they have such great futures here without you anyway, which of course is why you singled them out in the first place. There were many others of distinction from the battle, but none others who could or would abandon town or their families, not without manipulation against their wishes or desires. From what you have it's quite a mismatched group, but all the better to join you against all challenges that may come your way.
