From your vantage astride Pallenten you wonder at the gall of the old woman, but you know there is a chance it will be money well spent. There is little that information brokers like Anawyn don't know about the comings and goings of the frontier, and it would not be the last time you would probably part with good money for their wares. Quickly you give over two coins and wait for Anawyn to respond. For her part she takes the silver pieces and hides them within the remains of her clothing, then points to the south.
"Heard from a number of travellers comin' north that the Army's all over the place. Thugs all of 'em. I hear they been stoppin' honest folk, takin' stuff that ain't theirs, and generally makin' life miserable. Don't care myself really. Don't have any inklin' to make a trip south but you might want to know. West is a whole different kettle. Heard from some farm boys only yesterday that rumours are going around about the Horde. Seems a few of the outlyin' farmsteads near Melem's Fork have been hit bad and everybody's got the wind up. Don't like anybody's chances with those types hanging about. Bands of 'em roamin' the wilds its said; who would'a thought eh?. Reckon I'd think twice I would if I was takin' the West Road."
For a moment you think on Anawyn's words. The south has its dangers, as does the west, but in times such as these there can be no safe way forward. Quickly you come to a decision and thank her for her time.
"It has been good to see you again Anawyn. Try not to con too many passers-by of their hard-earned money."
Anawyn laughs and hands you a small bottle of beer. "Somethin' for the road Master Vesh. Keep safe if you can."
You smile and wave goodbye. Time is passing and it is something you do not have a lot of.

If you wish to continue on the South Road to Das Frontier turn to section 255. If you would rather take your chances on the West Road turn to section 225. If you feel that leaving the roads and taking a cross-country route to the Devkraager Tor is best turn to section 261. If you have not done so record the bottle of beer on your character sheet before continuing.
