WELCOME TO SOLVUNN!

WELCOME TO SOLVUNN!

Welcome to Solvunn! Bright suns and merriest of welcomes to you! The portal opens in a vast field on the western side of town surrounded by cattle, with a distant view of the bustling marketplace. The first impression of the settlement is one of idylic, country charm. There are no looming structures or crowded streets. Instead, there are cozier houses on wide streets and community buildings made of stone and wood. A gentle breeze rolls across the field and the sun is high in the sky.

There's not as much magic here as in other locations, but it's there. No one will be stopped from entering Solvunn, though suspicion will be cast upon new arrivals. Citizens will be friendly and welcoming, but curious about their new visitors. It isn't often that they welcome new folks- especially not so many at once!

With tensions between the other communities, Solvunn will not be keen on ratting out those who fled Thorne, but with the knowledge that sanctuary will not be given for free. Everyone does their part, whatever that part may be.

Asking questions will result in being told to find Rowan March, one of the council members, somewhere in the marketplace.

[The comment gets a small chuckle out of Martin regardless of intent, but he gives Roland a quick look up and down in case he wasn't joking.]

Oh, I'm- yeah, I'd be happy to. [And he is, genuinely, he's just a little startled by the polite request at all. He pats the book against his chest.] Mostly I've been doing research into the, um. The folklore of the region. Usually stuff like that tells you a lot more about what a place finds, uh-- I suppose necessary to teach their kids. Lots of stories about being a proper working member of the community, listening to the Old Gods, that sort of thing. A-as well as your, um. Usual sort of cautionary stories,.

A good place to begin. Learn what a folk think is right to teach their young ones, and you'll learn much of a folk.

[ Roland nods approvingly. It's not an approach he'd have thought to take, but it makes sense. ]

But I'll pay for whatever you care to drink once or twice a week and hear of what you've been reading. We'll be in this land a long time, I'll set my watch and warrant on it, and the more we all know of it, the better.

You'd be amazed the kinds of things kids talk about, too, all the stuff they pick up from their parents that they don't realise isn't, um. Well, for public consumption.

[But he does perk up a little, at the offer, standing a little straighter with a grin that sits somewhere between uncertain and quite eager.]

Looks like you'll be getting this one pretty much on the house then, I'm not really much of a drinker. But that's perfectly alright, I'm more than happy to help you out. I'm already writing notes for myself, I'll just make you a copy to run you through over that drink, I-I'm actually free most of the evening, once the kids I'm sitting get settled.
