Chapter 5 the road to Orario

as Arnold was leaving Gibville he thanked Jessica for her help and started to walk up the road to Orario. Unsure how far they need to go he gives snow some dear jerky and started on their way we have been walking for 20 mins now and we come across a merchant caravan and from what I can see it is in the process of being robbed so I go in to help my eyes tell me that there is no one at level 2 or higher than an LVL 1 just starting so me and snow can take them we just need to take careful steps so I pull my bow out and start to shoot and Snow starts running to them my first shot hits what looks like the leader snow freezes the other's feet to hold them still I then walk up to the men and ask what they are doing the reason I ask is that I know there are some merchant caravans that move less then legal goods and that is exactly why snow froze the feet of the merchant as well.

As I approach I yell "What is going on here?"

merchant "I'm getting rob that what!"

Arnold "And what is do you guys have to say for yourselves?"

leader "We were just offering him help to move his stuff"

Arnold "Well let's see what this is all about?"

I walk up to the wagon and look inside and see ores and other crafting supplies.

Arnold "So were you guys looking to buy this stuff or something?"

leader "no."

Arnold "OK from what I can see it looked more like you were robbing him but as I don't know for certain mister merchant do you have some rope or something like it that we can tie them up to take to Orario. I assume that is where you are headed?"

merchant "yes that is where I am going and I do have some rope."

Arnold "OK guys we are going to tie you up to be safe and we will talk when we get to town."

the leader then yells "fuck you!" and spits at me.

I then say in a snide tone it is better than what I was thinking about at first."

the leader then asks "ya and what was that?"

Arnold "to kill you."

the leader then said in a sheepish tone "ho OK."

After that, I and the merchant started to head to Orario. On the way there I and the merchant who is name was Tod started talking I found out that he is an exclusive Merchant for the Hephaestus familia. I ask him if what they do and he told me they are a forging familia and that they make some of the best weapons in the city. We had some goblins and kobolds try to attack us on the way but other then that it was relatively uneventful till we got to the city as we approached the gate there was a line and it turns out having analytic eyes and Perfect Memory mental data overload causing me to collapse on the ground. Tod was immediately concerned and asked "hey are you OK man. what is going on?"

I then reply "ya I just got a massive headache all of a sudden that is all. I just need to close my eyes for a sec."
