Pick up some mushrooms, they might be useful against raiders or monsters. Then, continue southwards, towards the Pewter district.

"Allright Lance, we're probably about as safe as we can be in here, without having an actual army with us. What should our next move be?"
Take it easy for a bit and converse with Lance, while still staying alert for people outside of the building. Try to stick to the shadows and not stand right in front of windows, better we don't telegraph that there's people in the building too much.

Description: An older gentlemen of somewhere around 42, Bernard has a bald head and big moustache and mutton chops. He's fairly burly and has a decent amount of scars covering his body.
Background: Bernard is an ex-soldier turned policeman. After a succesful tour of duty in the Kanthaan military he decided to apply himself to protecting the citizens at home, rather than fight the enemy abroad.

Silver half-mask - 0.5 defense, deals damage to attacking werecreatures, vampires, and underlings (equipped)
Description: A dwarf with a short, braided ginger beard and a short cropped mohawk. He has a gold tooth.
Backstory: Bernard isn't sure why D'rkza stopped living with the other dwarves or even how old he is, but he's damn pleased they eventually found eachother. The two were in the same squad during a particularely nasty campaign in the military and have been inseperable ever since. Unlike Bernard, D'rkza is a bit of a joker and an easy-going sort. D'rkza is still a policeman of low rank even after all these years, mostly because he tends to not treat the criminals they caught very well and he rubs his superiors the wrong way. Jokes on them though, because most of them are dead now and he isn't.
Lance ponders for a short while.
"Well, we're gonna need some food and drink... I think we should scout out the surrounding area. Your call though. I know there's a large government building just a bit to the West - perhaps we should go there."
Fix these things to the best of our ability, then see about joining the town guard

You patch up the roof with a few spare pieces of lumber, insulating your shack. Then you wander over to the barracks, and go in the most important looking building you can find. Inside, a heavily armored man sits behind a desk much too small for him, and painted in pink.
"What are ye lookin' for?" he asks.
You explain that you're looking to join the town guard.
"Ah, well ye've come to the right place. Yer in!"
You stop for a second.
"Just like that?" you ask, dumbfounded.
"Yes indeed."
(Oh, I have neglected to post. Sorry.)
"So, anything in particular that we're looking for?"
Continue scouting.

"Small wooden fortress. Patrolled by guards. It's apparently stuffed to the brim with resources that the leader, some old coot, refuses to share."
You continue onwards, but find nothing resembling a wooden fort. You do find a strange book, filled with runes, under a corpse, though. Huh.
