You ask for more construction supplies and tools, to provide more of simple housing for the refugees.

The agent bows and returns beyond the Portal.

Day 5

You hear a worrying rumor - Xamantha the Sorceress is ill!

A visit to her tent disproves the rumors, but clearly shows something is wrong with her.

"The sky is alien." She replies, arranging some bones and pebbles on a stone tablet. "The stars are unknown, and the earth is silent."

"What do you mean?"

"I cannot perform my magickry well." She muses, sighs and starts re-arranging her pebbles in frustration. "I need a point where I can focus in solitude and begin the exploration of the essences of this world."

A) "We will build you a circle of obelisks so that you can study the earth."
B) "We will construct you a staircase to let you feel and explore the winds."
C) "We will fashion a crude observatory where you can chart the stars."
D) "I will set aside men and supplies to create a place of arcane studies, even if it takes a lot of time and effort!"
E) "I'm sorry to hear that, but I cannot help at the moment."

A. I suspect that a feel for the earth will be the most immediately useful of our options.

You tell the Sorceress that you will arrange for a stone circle to be erected nearby so she can study the essences of the soil.

"Appreciated." She speaks with bowed head.

Day 6

The scholars are thrilled about the 'Shortfurs', the round quadrupeds. They're very docile if fed well, and they allowed themselves to be shorn. The fur, while not very thick, can be easily woven into fabric.

Not only that, hunting parties have brought another eleven specimen. "They graze in north and east, on plains and hills, munching grasses all the time." The hunters say.

Some hunters return from the south; the swamps stretch for days, and they have yet to see landscape beyond.

Parties that went towards the mountains have yet to return.

Day 7

Blighted! Blighted have been found!

Two drunkards have 'turned' overnight, and those who seen then before claim they arrived three days earlier.

This means that Blight snuck into Blighthaven on the Day 4, during the very first scheduled arrival of refugees and supplies!

A) "We must hunt down those who stayed with them, and ensure the Blight's spread is nipped in the bud!"
B) "Soldiers must start making extra rounds, we can't afford more Blighted to appear."

A.
Also, establish a quarantine for any new arrivals - five days in a separated area, I think. We cannot allow this to happen again.

You order the ones that were living with the Blighted to be killed.

A short list of the unfortunate names is soon passed to executioners, who kill the potential Blighted with arrows, and then the priests burn the bodies to ensure the miasma does not spread.

You also order that a special, fenced camp is to be erected around the Portal, where the next wave of refugees will be kept until there is guarantee the Blight did not come over with them.

Day 8

Early in the morning, before the Portal's scheduled opening, your officials meet with your hurriedly.

"Prince, we lack skilled laborers to construct houses and the camp around the Portal. Most of the skilled ones are now with the Sorceress, erecting the magical circle for her."

A) "Just force some peasants to lift weights then. Everyone can lift weights!"
B) "Forget about constructing homes for our current refugees, then!"
C) "Forget about the fenced camp around the Portal, then!"
D) "Send a message to the Sorceress, I need her laborers now and here!"
