Ashley summons Nixie 30ft ahead of the cart, and the cooresponding loud bang and smoke.
The bang reverberates through your lungs and the cubs scatter followed shortly by the mama bears. The smoke clears and the large black cat can't help but stare down the bears but by now the bears are already running off in all directions.

Though the the large bang startles the mules, the associated adrenaline rush renews their energy and whether instructed to or not, they're off down the road toward Nixie. Knowing Nixie is on their side has motivated them to join her. Ashley runs ahead with Nixie and you're past the bears in no time. you're very close to Phandalin, though you can't see it yet and it's still about an hour away.
Cat can't help but laugh
Nyahaha, see that, girls Nya? Nixie's not so bad Nya! Better her than bears, right Nya? Now let's move on Nya! There's a warm stable and food for you waiting in Phandalin Nya!

You arrive at Barthen's Provisions and Hobbie's sitting on the porch, smoking a long pipe, wrapped in a blanket. He hears you clopping up long before he sees you and when he sees who's trotting up he smiles, throws his hands in the air and cheers, "Look who's here!"
Hobby hops up, places down his pipe and blanket, runs out and seems excited to see what you got for him.
Cat enthusiastically waves at him
Heya Nya we're back Nyaa! Brought lots of stuff for ya Nya! Anything going on lately Nya?



"You won't find a finer tender in all of Phandalin, well in fact, we have the only dedicated stable other than Eldermath's, but he's not in the business.
He looks slightly nervous, "Well, begging your pardon, it's usually a standard rate of 5 silver a day each, but but that includes feed and care, I can adjust and clean their shoes if you leave them more than a day AND, I'll give your cart a once over, feel free to keep that in my garage as part of the bargain."

I have a full paying customer just today, she was happy to pay whatever I asked in fact! Well though not everyone can afford everything the same and you're not asking for me to take on finicky draft horses, so how long are you staying?"
Cat's ears perk up
Nyaa doesn't sound bad Nya!
Can we take a look at your stables and garage Nya? And you've been storing more stuff for us Nya. Can we load that on our cart Nya?

Cat whispers to Yulya
Nyaa at least we an take a look at Summer's horses and carriage Nya to see what it looks like Nya!

Nixie flashbang worked perfectly!

Sophia's had enough, though she's fine when you lead her, she's done and will probably not like being driven this hard in the future without another good uneventful day under her belt and in a warmer climate. Expect her to not make it all the way to the high road unless her mood has improved significantly.
She will get bored after a week or more in Hobby's stable. And if she wants to get back into the warmth, she'll have to go to Neverwinter with us. Even with the crisis resolved, the snow won't melt in a day.

Yulya sighs with relief
Well done Ashley. How could I have forgotten Nixie!
Let us continue quickly!

You arrive at Barthen's Provisions and Hobbie's sitting on the porch, smoking a long pipe, wrapped in a blanket. He hears you clopping up long before he sees you and when he sees who's trotting up he smiles, throws his hands in the air and cheers, "Look who's here!"
Yulya raises her hand in greeting but exhausted and cold she lets Ashley do the dealmaking.

He squirms a bit and then says, "you're wrong Ms. Ashley, I have a full paying customer just today, she was happy to pay whatever I asked in fact! Well though not everyone can afford everything the same and you're not asking for me to take on finicky draft horses, so how long are you staying?"
Yulyas face briefly brightens. That means Summer has made it here safely.

Ashley takes a sigh, "Yulya? He says 50 flipping silver for these stinky girls and we only made 100, what a jip!"
Yulya puts on a bitter smile.
Alice was right, the mules life expenses surpass ours...

An exhausted and shivering Yulya turns to Hobby using Persuasion
Sir Hobnail I understand times are tough but we invested nearly all our funds to acquire the maximum amount of provisions for you and even purchased this cart to transport them. We are not here to take advantage of Phandalin on the contrary. We are trying our best to help this town and we are here to secure the Rockseekers mine and then deal with the source of this cold. But we cannot do so if we starve and freeze to death. I therefore at least ask you to reduce and postpone our payment for the mules until our departure to Neverwinter, regardless of the time it takes us. Consider it an investment! Help us so we can help you!



By the way would you or Miss Elmina know where we can find your dear customer? She is our friend and we are to meet with her as soon as possible!

Yulya whispers to Ashley
It is not a bad deal if he takes care of our cart as well until we return to Neverwinter. The whole thing might take significantly longer than 5 days and we pay for upon leaving when everything is resolved. Until then we are either rich - or dead.
And it looks like Summer is throwing around with money. Maybe we can get her to finance our lodging and food at Sir Toblens Inn. She is the quest giver after all and the service of heroes has its price... We need to find her!

Cat is trying her best to convince the mules to go on with her animal handling skills
Nya we're almost there girls just a little more Nya!

Though it was worth a shot, they're not having any conversation right now.



[The Bears]

Sandra and Sophia are already cranky about the cold and they DO NOT like these new friends.

Ashley Nya! Summon Nixie Nya but keep her from attacking them Nya! Don't make eye contact either Nya! We just need the loud bang Nya! If that's not enough throw the stink bomb Alice Nya! We gotta make it clear that we aren't food Nya! That should be enough Nya but if not we need the lynxes too Nya! They won't endanger their cubs against all of us Nya! We won't engage them Nya but we're not retreating either Nya!

"Crap, okay." Ashley summons Nixie 30ft ahead of the cart, and the cooresponding loud bang and smoke.

Sandra's pulling the cart hard, a real champ though she's tired, but Sophia's had enough, though she's fine when you lead her, she's done and will probably not like being driven this hard in the future without another good uneventful day under her belt and in a warmer climate. Expect her to not make it all the way to the high road unless her mood has improved significantly.

[Saturday, Spring 22, 17:30, Partly Cloudy, 0C]

You finally arrive to the small town of Phandalin.

You arrive at Barthen's Provisions and Hobbie's sitting on the porch, smoking a long pipe, wrapped in a blanket. He hears you clopping up long before he sees you and when he sees who's trotting up he smiles, throws his hands in the air and cheers, "Look who's here!"



Hobby hops up, places down his pipe and blanket, runs out and seems excited to see what you got for him.

"Hey, yeah we're back you have stables for our mules right?"

"Oh yes of course! I'll take great care of them."

Ashley's gears are turning, "Perfect, so we got your stuff and if I remember correctly, you owe us 650 silver for the big load."

His smile fades, "well I think you're slightly mis-remembering."

"Yeah? Oh right, we were going to deliver the whole lot to that other guy."

"No! No no no, it was me, and the price was 20% over, yes, I have it in my ledger. Then I owe you 600 silver."

Ashley rolls her eyes, "Yeah so we're not real readers, yet, but I'm getting my license soon so then I'll probably be trading here more often. Ya knooowwah, someone who can take care of our mules temporarily and does a great job, would probably earn our trust."

"You won't find a finer tender in all of Phandalin, well in fact, we have the only dedicated stable other than Eldermath's, but he's not in the business. I mean there are a couple farmers who tend their own animals, but in terms of the level of care good traders need to make sure their horses and mules are in tip top shape to be able to travel those long distances, I'm the best! And we have plenty of vacancy in the meadows, though it's been so cold lately, they'll likly prefer the barn," He speaks with a quickened cadence and a cheerful tone.

"Bah, how much per day for your boarding of two mules?"
   
He looks slightly nervous, "Well, begging your pardon, it's usually a standard rate of 5 silver a day each, but but that includes feed and care, I can adjust and clean their shoes if you leave them more than a day AND, I'll give your cart a once over, feel free to keep that in my garage as part of the bargain."

"Look, I know you don't have any other customers here, and feed is dirt cheep, we have some anyway, so what about a flat one time rate?"

[Persuasion 1d20+6=11]

He squirms a bit and then says, "you're wrong Ms. Ashley, I have a full paying customer just today, she was happy to pay whatever I asked in fact! Well though not everyone can afford everything the same and you're not asking for me to take on finicky draft horses, so how long are you staying?"

"At least a week I'd bet, we have a lot to do, but whatever it is, wait, who else is here?"

He looks up as if calculating, "If you give me 50, then I'll take it as full payment until you're ready to leave. Deal? Oh who? Well Elmina handled it so I didn't see who."

Ashley takes a sigh, "Yulya? He says 50 flipping silver for these stinky girls and we only made 100, what a jip!"
