"I've come to seek my fortune in the city" you smile proudly

"That's an interesting choice for a ranger like yourself what prompted that change of heart?" the barkeep rubs his bearded chin.

You think quickly maybe lying wasn't such a good idea for someone like you. He has gathered you are lying to him... he may not be so helpful now.

"I want to go and offer my help to the king" you say
He looks at you "It's three days away"

"Anyway to get there faster?"

He begins to clean the mugs again "Not unless you can fly" he grins.

Do you walk

or try and find your animal companion?
