You spend the next couple hours of the morning briskly jogging down the trade routes close to home trying to follow the tracks left behind by the thugs that burnt your home down... The trail goes cold when you reach a main road and you decide to follow it reaching the crossroad closest to home...
North road leads to Northern Shade-Wood, bandits and outlaws of course live there, but you're more likely to run into an orckin or wolf then anything. Some parts host large lumbering companies and on a plus side you know that a strange plant simply dubbed as "Goodberry Shrubs" grows in the further northern areas of these woods, it cures minor wounds and aids in the curing process of poisons.
West leads to the Trapper/Carpentry stapled town of Kregham (population 280)
Friendly folk you hail from that hamlet and know a couple people that could give you some aid in food and possibly a strong arm. Many advantages to the town as they have their own smith that spends a lot of his time refurbishing weapons, though you don't think 3 gold will be getting you a weapon bigger then the knife you have now. They also have a Priestess in the hamlet, but her skill are novice as she's never preformed a miracle past that of mending the wounds of the tavern keeper that always slices his finger tip off chopping potatoes every month... She'd also ask for a 'donation' for her services...
What shall you do?
