The Turtle will happily visit Dugal's Cove. The ship looks a bit worse for
wear close up. Sgt. Doran and 1st Mate Mason George will make it to shore
first in a long boat. They want to ensure the dock is ready. They will
then signal the ship to dock.

I suspect Elmore, with help from companions may end up having to build up
a local structure from near scratch. He looks for willing pupils to take on
the mantle of junior priests he can begin training in his down time.
As per book, when he creates a temple, he’s supposed to gain both troops
and I think some priestly help but so far from the mainland, that may be a
question Nicole. Then, he hasn’t met the elves Sean has met yet either or
know which gods they follow or how far from the Cove or RL they are. Now
perhaps you understand why Elmore is closer tied to civilization and it’s
trappings than Cara likes. She needs a circle and maybe a few wild land
animal followers and she’s set. Things aren’t so simple for him and he’s
tried to explain it that even a church of a chaotic deity needs at least
SOME structure. I don’t think a chaotic deity’s church would be as large
and militaristic as the model in the dm guide as it may be difficult
keeping so many followers in the same place. Could be, they are marshaled
in times of need and the bulk of them disband to attend small churches in
the surrounding countryside when a major threat is over.

OOC: I'm wondering how Elmore could function with any distance from the
political structure. He's so tied into that structure, and he needs to be
where his church can support his position.

DM Note: There is only one really potential way for Elmore to lower his
expenses... we all know that! I have a daughter that could be the model
for Bonaluria's expensive tastes... I feel your pain.

Oh, thought it might have been something Elmore could use to lower his
overall expenses when we get grapes or strawberries or some other
fermentable fruit, a vintner or something. A very good one might both
supply the household and eventually create an export or at least create a
local staple.

Technically, I believe Fred latched onto Ernst on Holly's behalf. I am
not sure Holly was engaged in the decision-making process there. A
fledgling dockmaster needs a staff!

Sean keeps a sharp eye out to the landward side, from westerly
through to the north.

While the DM waits for a response:
For those of you who owe monthly upkeeps:
Elmore needs to pony up 503gp for wages and 800gp for expenses
(Bonaluria and her court of ladies) It was a lean month for the ladies.
Hagar needs to check off 2338 gold for his company of gnomes and
Rarmuck.
If Theo is to be engaged, he will cost his new master 3 gold per
month.
Holly will need to cough up 403 gold to pay for Fred and Ernst.
