Or, maybe Joseph's Rest.....

As Sean gets the former captives ready for a two hour walk, he suggests to
whoever of the party that is around that he would like to change the name he
called the cave complex from Hilda's Cave to Joseph's Cave (unless he is
somehow restored to health). Ahearn has a lot invested in this land. Dugal's
Cove and Joseph's Cave.
We have a lot going on here now. We have Manrug's small company, Elmore's
small company, Pomeroy's hospital (did he come with any helpers?), Sicarius's
smithy, Joseph's dock, and Xander's School of Magic (currently with one
student). Holly has a dwarven friend named Fred, who is apparently a good
carpenter. Amongst the gnomes of Manrug's company, we have an engineer, a
carpenter, two builders, two masons, a joiner and a laborer. We have three
fletchers, Sean, Carandolana and one of Elmore's troops. Also from Elmore's
men (and women), we have two boatwrights, an able seaman, and an ordinary
seaman. We also have rescued four sailors (one now missing a leg) who may or
may not wish to remain at the Cove (Sean will take any who wish to go to
Aarell, the long overland way, of course). We have two farmers and a gardener
in Elmore's troops, as well as three 'farm wives' we just rescued, some of whom
may wish to stay here (especially if their whole family was killed - though, to
be honest, Sean is hoping that Nancy at the very least might be willing to stay
on to assist Pomeroy). The gnomes even have two tailors (to go with all that
fabric we just recovered, though yet to have gotten back to the Cove).
So there is a lot going on in the near future.
But, let us not forget that we have been harassed by Ezanus, and Sean has
located his lair (well, not exactly, but fairly close). And there are Elves in
the wilderness that we would do well to establish relations with. And we need
to arrange for shipping to use the Cove as a port of call (and Sean's
repeatedly suggested 'industry' of being a drydock for ocean going vessels).
I hope we have the time to get everything to the Cove before we run into our
next problem.
