Synopsis[edit | edit source]

Erin and her crew are ready for vacation and decide to go to Riverfarm. As with any wandering inn event, the beginning is chaotic. Those coming along include Erin herself, Lyonette, Mrsha, Numbtongue, Gothica, Ulvama, Garia, Typhenous, the four Thronebearers, Tessa, Inkar, and Tkrn. The group is large but smaller than it could have been. Alcaz and Normen stayed behind and the Horns did not want to trek out for a long trip as Pisces was getting ready to tell his team about his time on Chandrar. The trip itself was relatively mundane though not uneventful. Mrsha got sick, and the group did have trouble finding proper lodgings with multiple goblins coming with, but Inkar was able to smooth things over by being personable to a group of farmers and telling stories about her travels. While they were on this farm, they got news from the High Passes that a monster horde was coming south, but the group ultimately decided against going back as by the time they did, they would likely be too late to help. Erin did send out some messages and a <Mass Heroic Quest> to get people to help out instead of her, and the Horns accepted among others. One other event of note was that this was the first time Erin had a chance to talk to Inkar and Erin enjoyed her company. Inkar said she would likely be going back to Longstalker's Fang, but for now she was coming with to Riverfarm.

On the other side, Wiskeria was a point of view character that got development at the same time as Erin's travels. The story dived deeper into the oddities surrounding Wiskeria's personality. The main issue with the contrast between her being Belavierr's daughter and her seeming normalcy. Wiskeria as it turns out, sees things in a very socially unaware way. She was raised by Belavierr who taught her everything she could about [Witches] but little about how to behave socially. Now, Wiskeria has to figure these things out on her own. She still thinks in odd ways though, like not understanding the difference between a bothersome cold and a near-death cold for a child or referring to a raccoon as a father since it did have children. She also had to deal with the knowledge that Belavierr gave her at all times. She knew how to perform rituals and could hear the sounds of a weeping old man throughout the chapter but chose to ignore it. Despite these social oddities, she is able to help Laken resolve a feud between Agratha and Oliyaya by suggesting a hat making competition, and Wiskeria does look out for Nanette who has been hit hard by the death of her mother.

When the Liscor group arrived at Riverfarm, everyone came together and there was a bit of posturing between the two groups. Erin met Laken and introductions began but before much could be said, the rest of Griffon Hunt came forward to see Erin and she threw herself at them in a hug. Halrac cried at this and others joined the group hug as well including Revi, Mrsha, Lyonette, and Pebblesnatch. The last thing to happen was the [Witches] muttering their opinions of Erin as a hatless [Witch]. They recognized her as one, but not a real witch without a hat or craft. Wiskeria thought she would not like Erin, and Erin heard the weeping of the old man that Wiskeria had been ignoring.
