Beyond the Boundaries
WHO: Dustin, Felwinter and Link
WHERE: Westward, ho!
WHAT: Felwinter finds himself in...interesting company as he finally sets out for a long put off expedition beyond Temba's city limits.
WHEN: Later this month
WARNINGS: N/A
Organic beings needed preparations, supplies, for a trip. Felwinter remembered these things when he contacted Dustin. 'Star roof', probably wasn't much of a message, but he knew Dustin would understand. He left a more detailed message there, penned and folded under a rock: 'I plan to set out in five days' time. If you wish to join me then pack accordingly and comm your confirmation. Several days out and then back, unless we find any reason to extend our venture. If you have anyone you trust to come along, then so be it.'
He wondered if he was being too generous.
Link would once again find himself under much scrutiny by the helmet-wearing warlord. This time they're at least not on a rooftop, but the mood is probably very much the same. Again, there are questions, and again, Felwinter isn't certain where to even begin. Or rather, he knows what to ask, but he has a feeling that he's better off not knowing. That unseen gaze shifts to Dustin with the impending sense of a query and yet none forthcoming.
And then finally, Felwinter turns, shouldering his pack as he starts on towards the city's outskirts, pausing to cast an expectant look at the two as it seems he's going to accept this extra company after all.

"--I-I can keep going," he says with a flush of his face, sounding distinctly offended. "The terrain is still navigable, the Marshbears are surmountable threats. I want to stay long enough to get some plant and soil samples and see more of the non-documented wildlife."

Felwinter doesn't feel it necessary to debate, and he hadn't meant to single out either of them with the suggestion to turn back. He looks at the both of them again.
"We'll press on, but if the terrain becomes any less stable further out, I will not be able to go very far without substantial places to set foot. Felspring will inform us if there is any foreign movement in our vicinity."

So they keep going, at least for a little while. But they can only do so for another day before the terrain gets too difficult for Felwinter to keep going. At that point, they need to go back.
But that's okay. Link's already found more than he can carry. He's got to get some of his new collections back home now, after all.
