As they waited for K'tahjha to join them, K'haali took the opportunity to fill the silence with a quick rundown of her own findings. She quickly scanned around the bags and notes in the dark with her hands, seemingly both looking and trying to give a respectful bob of the head to the elders, in an obviously nervous fluster.
"Okay... findings... findings."
"Well, in East Thanalan we discovered a secluded grove on the edge of a huge gorge carved by Dalamud, around half a day south of Highbridge, at the heart of this grove-in-the-wastes was the husk of a dead goobue, from which all manner of flora had sprouted and covered the area."
K'haali omitting that the site was only found because K'luha had fled the previous evening into a pouring rainstorm in an event that still eluded explanation to her.
"There is both a small standing oasis close to the goobue, and also a large, fast-flowing river about half a day north-east, from the direction of the shroud. The soils there are more fertile than Southern Thanalan, and while we were there we witnessed a rain storm, so the area does have rainfall"
"While the others collected K'thajha I was able to spend a couple of weeks exploring the area; there's quite a wealth of useful minerals and the plains are home to huge herds of aldgoat. I also found a number of edible plants that looked easy to cultivate..."
"...and, I also found this."
K'haali carefully placed a small, but remarkably heavy pouch in reach of the elders. Allowing the pouch to unfold slightly, revealing a slight glint of gold in the dim light of the tent.
