"Indeed... We were lacking in time to do much more than gather what forces we could and march towards this site, in a region with so much old death... A lich would grow his forces and power more with every passing day, and with the Uhar caught unawares they may not have survived too many days of delay".
After all the Uhar had been trickling in as small groups to investigate the sudden lack of communication from their winter home, which was how so many had been captured by the time Ratty arrived.
"Even so, if you had been within reach... I would have asked for you help, begged if required, it would shame me but you have proven to be an extremely competent solver of problems... And would surely have led to many fewer casualties if we were to storm the fortress, of course, you simply solved everything yourself".
Pragmatism despite her personal feelings of shame it seemed.
"Oh? I am surprised you can feel that... It carries the weight of responsibility... And quite a few spells and enchantments too of course, most tend to simply dismiss it as nothing.... Worry not though, it shouldn't cause any trouble for you, and this way it's much harder to lose".
Her tone was light, it would be difficult to work out if she was being entirely serious, though just a spell to make the ring harder to lose WOULD count as an enchantment.
"Indeed... it was natural that you would need to interact with the Periphery at some point if you intend to create any sort of lasting settlement in this region, their position makes them invaluable as a connection between our own settlements and the wider empires outside of this forest, without needing to worry about the difficulties that would normally accompany such commerce... And of course, they consider themselves something of a local peace keeping force, ignoring their recent... Inactivity, I am sure they would have sent a party to investigate your actions soon enough once they had heard of you".
She sipped some tea that had been sitting nearby.
"As for trading with them... The people of the Periphery are former adventurers and their descendants, their cultures and tastes are as varied as they come, they were also not originally dedicated craftsmen, while common foods and basic necessities of life such as furnishing are within their reach, they lack easy access to many luxury goods, so I would suggest finding something along those lines to offer".
"Yes... Long range communication is very useful... But it is also very difficult to learn, and even more difficult to maintain for more than a few words, I am cheating somewhat with mine by using such a powerful focus".
Presumably she meant her crystal ball.
"Being able to see who I am talking with helps as well".
She added.
"Those stones... I did examine some but they are made with a method of enchanting I am not at all familiar with, if you can decipher their secrets then you would be welcome to the ruins filled with them throughout this forest".
