The poporis need gear, but Velika has been slow to useless about sending any here. I guess we'll have to take matters into our own hands.<BR><BR>Chop down some {@LinkCreature:23#2#ironwood ghilliedhus} and collect their bark. That stuff makes decent shields. I'll crank out some shields.<BR><BR>You've saved some lives today, <PCNAME>. Hopefully, it'll earn you a transfer to a region with bigger problems than this.<BR><BR>Still, it's the little steps we take now that pay off big in the end.<BR><BR>I hope. I know this isn't glamorous, but the poporis are our allies. We need to help them as best we can.<BR><BR>So, get back out there and bring back some bark.
