	Which leads to another excellent question: what are our plans? We could talk to either Naprid or Edrell--preferably the later, I should think--and see if there are any way to strike another blow to the Odessans. Also, there is the matter of the refugees. They are suffering right now, and it's been a while since we gave them our attention. There is no doubt that a decisive victory will help them the most, but can we afford to wait? Do we know of any way we can bring more of them into the city? Many of the [[Azure Geese\|Geese]] were refugees, and I'm sure they are antsy to get their friends and family back into the city. Are we able to use the [[Sojourner's Cap]] twice yet? If so, we could go to a major city, purchase a massive amount of food, and bring it back to the refugees. It's a plan with a lot of risks, but there is no doubt they need something. What do we want to do now? Attack or rescue?		Which leads to another excellent question: what are our plans?

	But, I think Germain is probably right on the larger point, too, in a way about the value of perusing the spy. I'm not convinced it's not a fruitful avenue or something we couldn't crack, but I do think it's not something that could be done as a side project or kicked out over tea and cakes. It would take time, effort, and expense. Probably in significant quantities, and a lot of your direct attention. And, I don't have to remind you, the application of those things in once place is going to leave the city no less in jeopardy in other ways. The Bog Wraiths seem a lot more resource-thin than I would have expected, and from what I've seen, the [[Silverwalkers]] seem to be all the offense Wydmoor is able to cobble together at present for whatever reason.

			{{germain}} : Churchmen of the Hadriarch position are politicians, and any good politician would throw off suspicion by doing something like running away. So would any coward. And Egg's right that there isn't one of us who can't draw a little well-founded suspicion, and I'm particularly suspicious. There are just too many possibilities and not enough information right now. For now, I think the best we can do is get real and fake information out about our activities and see if we can draw out the mole. I'll see what sort of plans I can put together around this.
