Dark CloudAdam met MacKensie's eyes. So determined, so lovely. Just like always. She was handling the events of yesterday better than he was, anyway. She didn't cause a woman to be electrocuted though-don't think like that right now. Instead, he nodded and smiled when MacKensie voiced her appreciation and desire for him to see her family again.
The man responded in kind. "Right. Considering the magic here, I wouldn't be surprised if that was really possible" he said, partially because it was true and partially as an attempt at humor. Shortly after this, Zell and another big guy showed up. The latter introduced himself with a salute as Barracker, the newest member of their team. Adam returned the gesture, not wanting to be awkward. "Nice to meet you, Barracker. Welcome to Second Chance."
The Druid stayed with the newly-formed table of four for a while before realizing I should probably get going before the stores close unless I want to starve on my hike. After apologizing for needing to leave ("I have errands to run before our mission" was true without getting into the details of his trip), the red-eyed man thanked Barracker for his help on their future mission and went on his way.
"Great guy," Adam thought in reference to the claymore wielder, "and he's probably good in a fight also. I wonder if he's better than Zell? Whatever "better" meant, in this context. Not that it mattered, really - a fight without purpose was pointless to the Druid. A more relevant question, he realized after walking around for about ten minutes, was "is wandering around at random really the best way of finding a store?" He had just navigated the team through the Mazy Hillocks! There had to be a better way of-
Before the man could act upon these thoughts though, he stumbled upon a place; Green's Grocery, which looked like an old-timey general store if it was in medieval times. Upon entering, he was greeted by a half-orc clerk who then asked if he needed any help.
"Yes please. I'm looking for some shelf stable food, some clothes - similar to what I'm already wearing, nothing fancy - and a bag to carry it all in. Maybe one that can hold an infinite amount of stuff, if that's possible?"
The worker chuckled, then explained himself with a "customer service" tone. "Sorry sir, those are 250 gold a piece. We don't carry those here. You could try the magic shop down the street though? Or we have a nice leather bag that will reduce the weight and dimensions of what you put inside, within reason. Would that work for you?"
"That will be fine, thanks." After trying on the clothes to be sure they fit, the red-eyed man paid for everything and was on his way. He decided he would take the long way back to the Mended Drum, though he wasn't sure if it was because he wanted to see the city or if he felt he didn't belong with the rest of the group. Nonetheless, Adam would end up talking with someone in Second Chance later, but of course had no way of knowing this at the time.
"We will find a way home. All of us. Even if I have to grapplehook us all the way across the universe," she added with a chuckle.
