As Belnan said this, Rugen asks Rosalind to come with him.
I'm going to be heading back to the village outside of I NI, and it looks like Lazule is going with me. Someone needs to have this belt, and it may as well be you. You're into tinkering, so you'll be best set up for upkeeping it.

DUHDUHDUHDUH, DUH, DUUH, DUT DUHDUH! Rosalind now has the belt that belonged to Jorick's teacher. Equiped with a stylish knife and club, it has multiple uses.

The first use of the club is obvious; someone who wears it is recognized as a knightlord, as long as their cover isn't blown (respect is not guaranteed, especially if someone (like bandits) figures out that you're from a smaller village).

The second use is that the club is actually filled with a special oil. When a substance known as widow tears is boiled in an oil, it can be loaded into the bottom of the club. Widow tears (a ten pound bag included) are a powerful narcotic capable of either numbing an area or causing unconciousness. The end of the club is coated in the oil that it is filled with, and the drug does not have to be ingested to be utilized. About two tears will do for the club; more if you want something especially potent. Use as you will.

The third use of the belt is that when the knife strikes the club correctly, the end catches fire. You'll burn through the oil faster, but there is still enough to last a good two hours. Try not to smell the smoke; it causes mild euphoria at first, but in an especially enclosed area, it can lead to unconciousness. Again, use as you will, but if you need light, plain oil is recommended (or just use it outdoors). Again, the effect multiplies if more tears are added.

I really didn't want this to leave with Rugen. It is an item exclusive to Inian knightlords (Jorick), or at least the mechanical/alchemical components. Anyway, back to the story. I don't know if you guys want to run after Tamerile yet, so another update when that's resolved.

"Wait! We're probably going to the same village anyway.. How many could there possibly be? I'm sure we'll see him when we get there. So we really don't need to chase after him now. I was just sayin... If I thought of it while he was here. Sorry. I didn't mean to run off now." Xaku says grabbing Rosalind's sleeve before she could head out. "Besides, we kind of need you with us since you've got the belt thing and all."

At dawn the next day, what remained of the group set out for the Flower Village. As they left, Sam told them they could return as they pleased, whenever they needed supplies on their trip.

They traveled down the river, and eventually the trees became more and more scarce. The strange thing was that even though they still passed ruins, it seemed like there were no longer any hills in front of them...

As the group rounded one final meander and patch of Shard trees, they saw in the distance their destination. Three small mountains covered in purple looked down on the town on the river, which was surrounded by a wall and gate. The "village" was much more of a metropolis, with stone buildings using eachother as platforms for the next set of walkways and buildings. In the center was an unadorned castle, that looked like it may be serving as a palace for whoever ruled the Flower Village.

When they saw the village it was only another hour's walk to get there, mostly down hill. As they entered the gates it was plain that the town was bustling with shoppers and armours. One of the armours sees them enter the gates, and greets them:
"Welcome to our town, travelers! Sorry if I'm somewhat brief, but I have an urgent matter in the palace. If you've never been here before (and I'm pretty sure George is the only one who has), we are known for our hospitality. George, I trust you can show them around, you all but live in this town.

If any of you have any questions, feel free to talk to one of the armours, or as they like to be called, knights. I myself am Lieutenent Loren, so go ahead and let my men know that we've met if they give you any trouble . "

Some notes for Flower Village
-The population is pretty big, and it doesn't look like there are that many travelers.
-The armours here wear what are essentially full suits of armor, minus the helmets and guantlets. They are also armed with shortswords in sheaths, but from the wear on the sheaths, they don't prefer to use the blade parts.

"Well George, where to first?" Belnan was amazed at this size of this town. He was studying everything that a blacksmith would study, armour, helmets, sheaths, everything. He was like a kid in a Candy store.
