Virgil watches one of the scorpions collapse out of the corner of his eye as the third one makes it's way towards him and strikes. He slips to the side dodging the attack as he shifts around it. "I think I got him occupied. Finish it off!" He shouts to the other two as he lunges with his rapier trying to pierce it's thick body.

Northern Road from Thalia Village
Day 6 - Later that day

The last scorpion went down. With that, both the man and woman you had saved ran back to their cart.

"G-good... I don't think they got to it..." The man said as he reached the wagon. The woman followed behind as well. Though she specifically turned towards you and the rest.

"T-thank you for saving us from the scorpions! We were on our way to Orario and these attacked from out of no where." She said.

"It's likely the food we're bringing..." The man continued pointing to one of the jars in his overturned wagon. You noticed that a few of the jars were broken, from it was a very strong smell. "Fermented shark meat from the maritime nation of Dizara. We were on our way to Orario to sell these there... But we heard of a festival happening around here?"

Virgil watches as Rei's shot brings the last scorpion down and breathes a sigh of relief. He puts his rapier away and dusts himself off and looks towards Rei and Elidia. "Thanks for that, I owe y'all a drink when we get back. Are you ok? I know those things sting like a something fierce."

He then watches the two run back to their cart. Seeing their worry he walks and joins them to see what their talking about. "It weren't a problem. We were actual on the road as a patr..." He stops as he walks around the side of the cart and the smell hits him. "Oh that could gag a maggot." He quickly turns and grabs the side of the cart trying not to let the smell overpower him. He takes a few steps away from the cart and takes a couple deep breaths to get the smell out of his nose. He whispers quietly to himself, "It just doesn't go away."

Virgil then turns back to the couple and tries to give them a friendly smile that probably looks more like a gnarled grimace. "Sorry, my apologies. Yes, there's a festival in Thalia Village down the road south of here. We were on patrol if you're wantin' to follow us back into town. I can help get your horses back t'gether so you can get your goods moving. Prolly don't want that getting left behind." A nervous look comes across his face as he thinks about that smell being in the cart with him and does not find it appealing.

Virgil then looks over to the scorpions laying on the ground then turns the others with a mischievous smile. "Anyone got a couple knives?

Is their wagon salvageable and can their horses be recovered? Virgil would also like to extract as much venom from the scorpions as possible either using vials from his alchemy supplies, He'd also like to salvage a few of the chitin plates and a couple claws.
