Dear Trahearne,

I just got your letters. I’m glad that you’re making exciting progress at your mission. Finding living plants in Orr is spectacular news, and as soon as you tell the priory, they’ll be fighting to be the next expedition team down there. I’m afraid that I, however, must disappoint you. I told you in my last letter what happened to me, now I must confess that I don’t have good news about our mission either.

Even with the supplies we brought, the quaggans are going to run out of food before the eggs hatch. We were hoping it would supplement what they already have, but what they already have is basically nothing in terms of both substance and nutritional value. They’ve gone through the aid rather quickly. Sieran wrote to the priory asking them to send more, but in the meantime, Shashoo has been urging us to find their gatherers.

It’s a tricky request. Sieran and Mychyte have had their hands full with trying to figure out a way to transport the eggs early, and when they’re not working on that, they’re helping the villagers clear the icebrood near the village. Sieran tells me Jormag’s minions get bolder by the day, and that as soon as they kill one, another crystallizes in its place. I haven’t been allowed to help because it involves more diving, but there’s a group of bounty hunters taking a rest at the steading tonight and we’ve convinced them to stay an extra day to clear out the icebrood for us, which will give us time to search for the gatherers tomorrow.

I’ve heard Mychyte discussing the plans with Sieran, so at least I know there’s nothing wrong with her voice.

Go well,
Feorylle
