"Affirmative. Me and five others have tried to reach her, but the creatures found us first... Alas, I'm the only one left, and I can barely walk as I am."
"Indeed, you're in terrible condition. Sacrificing your lives in hopes of reaching the witches is nothing short of desperate."
"It's said the witch resides deep inside a mansion made by the soil itself. Only those the mistress wills may reach the place. Most of us were afraid of going near it, but children have testified of seeing places fitting that description when playing by the trees."
"Seems like a spell was bound there to ward off enemies..."
"We've searched for five days, and yet..." The man coughs, interrupting his speech.
"Nuh-Uh! Save that energy, grandpa!" Puck shushes him as Gunpowder arrives.
"No! Go here! Over there! Whoooa!" Gunpowder twists and turns as Farnese rides him, flipping her straps over as she hangs upside down on your horse.
'Ear bad.' Gunpowder excuses his poor treatment of Farnese on his damaged hearing, when in reality, he just didn't like being pushed around as a regular horse.
"You couldn't bring along someone more... tame?" You shake your head at her choice of equines.
"The others wanted to rest from a day of travelling..." she throws her hands up, well, down, from where she is.
"I think I'll be able to calm him down." Guts unties her straps and helps you both get on Gunpowder, and before you could turn to move to Enoch Village, Morgan pleads you to stop.
"This might be a selfish request, but I would feel like I've let my comrades down, if I was the only survivor of the group, and still failed to reach the witch's lair."
His context of who the witch is might have given you more context, and while the sun is still high, you're not sure if anyone so powerful would appreciate an entire caravan coming in uninvited into their house.
The sun is still high, so the timing is perfect to waste some hours searching if you wish to do so, yet with the trolls after you, trouble might find you there.
Enoch might have trolls too, but believing in strength in numbers, going there first is the safer bet, even if Morgan might resent you for it.
>Woods is my middle name, I can find a treehouse with no problem.>It's too dangerous to wander around here, and we're barely in condition to defend ourselves. Sorry, Morgan.
