Being a high-ranked officer you can make the logistics, that is for sure. You just need to fill about two dozens paper and formulars, assure them in twenty different places, collect about nineteen stamps and you'll get your 500 Aerons. Do you wish to descend into the abyss of paper work and bureaucracy?

I have an idea for an exchange of sorts.  I could bring you food and supplies in exchange for a little training in your school of magic. You get a consistent source of food, and you won't have to waste corpses on attacking caravans.

That takes you a whole week, but now feel like batman - by day, you are just an ordinary headquater-dwelling colonel with his small fortune at his side, but by night you become a mysterious vigilante on a fancy car.

darkpaladin109
You do.

Caerwyn
Remember that strange guy? He is returning. And he is asking you something

UltraValican
 - And I would add a bit to this offer - adds Zacharia - How about a contract? You teach Xavar and attack every caravan exept mine, we visit you once a week with fresh foods and news?
Necromancer is a bit surprised. he thinks for a while, walking across his room, then turns to your company.
 - You know what? I agree. Bring in the contract, I'll sign it.

Zacharia snaps his fingers to attract your attention, then asks you to write in form of contraact the deal you have just said. You extract a sheet of paper and stylo ad wright it down, than hand contract and stylo to Zacharia. He signs it - his signature is a complicated tracery that seems to contain his families emblem. You pass the stylo and paper to necromancer, and he signs it, too.

 - Very well! How about a feast to honor our meeting? - asks the necromancer - I can now spare no effort to produce some nice food and drinks!

Head to the library to search for any additional information I can find on the dark elves or more up to date rumors of haunted forests.

Look for information on other elven nations as well.

That sounds splendid. The procurement of the supplies could be my very first lesson

((I hope you understand that now you are going to have some RP with Caerwyn, so I'm not needed here for a while.))

UltraValican
 - And I won't reject some help in this matter! Xavar, right? I'm Jurand Austerlein Wequant fon Libenheim, III. Jurand, to be short. Nice to meet you, since you are a mage. My father and grandfather always though that the knowledge of magic should be guarded and told not to strangers, but the times are changing, aren't they? Since only a few of mages are left, that makes sense to share knowledge among those who left.
So, your first lesson - transmitting the magic essebce into material objets. That is rather easy and requires only concentration. Just feel the image of object, see it in front of you, and them fill it with magic essence.
He stretches his hand and after a weak flash of warm yellow light a fried chicken leg appears in it. He bites a piece of it.
 - Home on, twy youwfelf - he says while chewing.

(( All the other nations except the dragons have been conquered by the humans already right? ))

Focus think of an apple. Red, Sweet, Crisp, and Round. Extend my hand out and open it. While still thinking of an apple focus the magic energy into my hand

[3+1] After a short dim spark of red light, an apple appears. It is nice and round. Woo-hoo!

You able to learn from various sources that Dark elves now leave in self-exilement in the woods of Wildlands, as you presumed. They also say that a bunch of outcasts have settled in Wilds and built city not smaller than beletran and declared themself an indvidual state.

Look around town for some shady types, gather up 10 and have a meeting with them inside the military compound. Get a map to the individual state.

(( Not that kind of shady, the spy kind of shady not the criminal kind. People good at finding information or other people and at not being seen themselves.

As a colonel I have the authority to hire military contractors right like mercenaries? Who will be paid from the military budget.)
