With a new look, and an ill-gotten bump up in his money, Ray moved on. He didnt want to stay in the city, he decided, too busy. Too many chances to get recogized.

After some time, and a few more failed muggings, he felt he had a sizable sum to start with. Still, she should be careful. So he spent some money getting a hand cart, a few peices of lumber, a sleeping bad, a small pot, and a bag of dood - things like smoked meats and bits of cheese and hard tack. 

In a small open area withing the side streets of the market area, he looks over his haul and prepares to start the next part of his plan, returning to the forest, somewhwre area from town, and away from the sentient house.
