The barmaid either doesn't notice, or is used to Vidar's obvious ogling. She merely winks sassily and collects payment and her tips from the table, washing it down before moving on to the next one.
As you all gather outside, pulling out your scrolls of Mount, they seem to be written in a very simple version of Common designed so anyone could read them, even Vidar (()). The mounts, once summoned, are fairly ordinary-looking, but those of you with magical inclinations know that they will not last very long. So off you go.
Traveling through the countryside feels like freedom, the air steadily gets...healthier and healthier the further from the city you get. Brick and mortar steadily turn to gravel and rock, then to dirt and grass. Before long, as you travel along the Southern Rostland Road, you spy a wooden structure in the distance, spurring you on. The closer you get, the larger it gets in your view...well, up to a point. This appears to be a trading post of some kind, possibly the one mentioned in the summons each of you received. As you pull closer, you begin to notice that things are not as they should be. The gate, such as it it, is shut upon your arrival and the air seems filled with...fear. The palisade is broken in several places. Only one of the towers seems fully constructed and everything in general just seems to be in a state of disrepair.
