“I don’t want to leave just yet.”
“Merchants are throwing a big bash tonight, so I doubt they’ll be attacking your territory. In fact, I’m wondering if they were attacking your territory to get cash or stuff to barter at the event as much as they were responding to your claim.”
Huh, yeah, I suppose if they already had plans to attack the area, that explains why it happened so quickly.
“Maybe.”
“And Chosen aren’t a threat right now? They haven’t said or done anything yet?”
So sign of them yet, no. I suppose they’ll be an issue eventually, though.
“Not yet, no. Haven’t run into any.”
“Grue and Imp are probably going to want to wind down and go on the defensive later today. You can have one of them babysit your territory if you’re worried. You have no good reason to refuse. Come on, let’s go see what a Merchant’s party is all about.”
Oh, so the bash isn’t just a reason Taylor can come out, but also the reason why she should – it’s what Tattle was thinking of as a source of information.
Attending a Merchant meeting, presumably in civilian clothing… this could be interesting.
