[Audio | 004: Back in the Saddle] Thursday, Week 11

[pepperspray]

This is an open broadcast, so I'm not going into too many specifics, but I'm taking a trip back to the port town to make some shipping arrangements. This will be a much lighter and faster trip than the last one, as we'll be going on horseback.

Assuming that I don't doom us all with my equestrian skills, I could use a couple people interested in coming along as outriders -- you should be able to ride and capable of defending yourself and, um, me, if it comes down to it. Bring small goods if you're interested in trading for goods or supplies in a more varied market -- like the Old City, the port town functions on a barter economy rather than a currency-based one.

[SO HEY, Pepper's going to try and make arrangements to get a grain shipment for the Old City, since the crops aren't too awesome right now. This isn't a full-on plot like last time, just a little thing what can be done. Bruce-mun's already on board with this, but I could use one more person if you're interested! Got my second person! But Pepper's likely to be making a lot more trips, so if not this time for people, then certainly future. (Or she can set you up to go in your own group too!)]

That's actually reassuring, since your time is, for me, humanity's future -- I wouldn't like to think that it's a situation like here, where it's less a right to bear arms and more a responsibility.

Is there anything I should be looking to get, to prepare for lessons?

Comfortable clothing. I am able to supply equipment initially, although we will need to find you a gun to carry once we've determined what will be most comfortable and effective for you.

That, at least, I'm starting to pull together. The footing here really isn't designed for high heels.

But I'll let you know when I'm back in town. I'm estimating late Monday night, assuming the horses, or the dinosaurs, don't eat me.

As long as you do not wear green, you should be safe. Although the horses do seem to have a fondness for hair - one of the many benefits of not having any.

[Her mildly teasing tone sobers, and she adds,] Good luck, Miss Potts. May the Goddess, and your own gods, watch over you.
