@artchef: I liked how casual the walk to the hut was. There was grief, strange visions, heavy luggage, and random settlement banter all happening in the same little journey.
A Wise Friend. by @coooldude on 3Speak
Fast-traveling to Ravensthorpe, I welcomed Valka, who revealed her mother had passed away. I helped carry her heavy luggage across the growing settlement, exchanging playful banter with Gunnar and ...

Avor, what a pleasure to see you. It feels like it's been so long. Valka, my friend. You're most welcome here. Are you well? Better than well. I am present. And your mother? My mother has found her peace at last. She walks through a world seen only in dreams and will forever more. That is all any of us can hope for. Indeed, come. How was your passage? Accelerating. The waves and the wind were with us from the start. We flew like seabirds, and how are you? In spite of your stoic look, there is a brightness in your eyes that warms me. It may be a kind of hope. A settlement is growing. The people are happy, and I am looking forward to more. And your visions? They come and go. But leave all that aside. Let me help you with your things. This way, I found a fine spot for you at the foot of the hill. Hmm. Every hour we traveled, I tried to conjure in my mind some vision of this place. And how close were you? I saw the trees and the water and the rolling hill, but I could not foresee so much green. It is a magnificent and calming color. Abound for sea-salted ice. What brings you? Hope there isn't a curse on the settlement or some such. Ha! The only curse on this place is there great lout of a blacksmith. It is a rare feeling to travel across the sea and still find oneself at home. This place feels powerful, alive. Do you foresee great things for us? No need for foresight. I feel it in my heart. Is that Valka, I see. What took you so long to follow? What a two inch... Sure, the place was up to snuff. We must talk again soon, Randi, once I'm settled. And before my arms fall off, what is this I'm carrying? My heaviest... Agents, of course, lead, whale bone, flecks of gold. Put this one to honest work, that is what I like to see. All these people you have brought here, this life you have built on these stranger shores. Does it please you? It does. To know that I've built this place and kept these people safe, it's a gift. You speak first. Of yourself when I ask this question, which says more than you intend, I think. Salvee, Evo, and Meliora. Good day. And who is that fellow? I have no idea. Well, the town must be bustling. You see there, your home is just the head. Tell me about your visions. They are as there have always been. Little has changed. Save their clarity. With every return, the things I see feel less like dreams and more like memories. And does the old father still appear before you? From time to time, yes. He speaks to me as well, but... It feels mad to say such things aloud. I understand. You can put those just there, thank you. And here we are. Lovely, just as you promised. As soon as I am set up here, we can return to the matter of your visions. Valca, please. You are touched, Avo, a conduit for godly tidings. Please, let me help. I may know a way to clarify these visions. An elixir that may open the door of your mind. into the realm of the gods. If you think it would help, I can finish your home myself. Only give me some time. I would be grateful. Thank you, Avor. Of course, and welcome home.

@rashed.ifte: Randvi basically welcomed Valka and then immediately suggested putting her to work. Ravensthorpe apparently has no time for a honeymoon period. And its good that Ravensthorpe just gained its resident seer and alchemist back.
