Downtime in Auginford
Auginford gives the party one last stretch of ordinary time: a dry room, a hot meal, lantern-light in shop windows, and people who still measure danger by tomorrow’s weather.
Useful downtime choices
- Gather leadsSpeak with the innkeeper, ferrymen, chapel staff, or road wardens for one grounded clue about an estate or its approaches.
- Prepare equipmentBuy supplies, repair gear, copy maps, or arrange a practical favor through Auginford’s shops and services.
- Research the VhaleksUse the chapel archive, Lantern & Ledger’s books, or Professor Manderhein’s folio to identify a sibling’s methods or a mansion’s recurring sign.
- Recover and planRest, train, craft, or decide how the party will respond when a delay clock or rift complication escalates.
