LOL!!! Alrighty then Mae and Hermia will be departing on their own.
With things packed and the ponies mounted our two diminutive ladies head off for a couple of days of easy riding and some fresh air. The hours pass with almost no notice to the duo as they enjoy the countryside and the smells of fresh grass instead of dank dungeon. Both of them feel the kinks work out of shoulders and arms as the sunshine warms them to the core. Soon they arrive at the sight the stable boy mentioned and looking around they can see the tumbled remains of an old keep. Stones lay here and there as if tossed by a careless giant. Some of them bare the marks of ancient fire and cracks where massive stones thrown from siege engines impacted. An oft used fire pit near the summit shows that others have camped here recently. Down the slope there is a crystal clear pond fed by a meandering creek. Fish can be seen jumping at insects while frogs chorus a melody. In the distance can be heard the impacts of axes as woodsmen clear deadfall and stack it for the cook fires and fireplaces.
