699 Heavily Armed

While most of Wolfe's tour was nothing more than catching up on the changes around town, when he got to the armoury, there were a suspiciously large number of weapons signed out by the patrol teams.

If things were as calm around the perimeter of the forest as they were in town, that shouldn't be necessary, but now that the forest had expanded, it was beyond the range of the [Kind Intentions] spell, and the beasts that entered wouldn't be calmed immediately, only when they got deeper into the forest's depths.

There were also a few more nearby villages that had been subsumed by the expanding Fae Forest, and now needed direct deliveries, as the airplanes couldn't get to them, but the underground highway had already reached them before Wolfe left on his voyage south.
