24th through the 34th days of Corellon's time in the 22nd year of King Ulodannan Wolfswift (Days 20 through 29)

24^th through the 34^th day of Corellon’s time in the 22^nd year of King Ulodannan Wolfswift (Days 20 through 29): The party rests and waits the coming of the cleric from Bushdell.  During this time, Tyrion lays low, trying not to attract attention.  Keira stays in or close to the temple, praying and meditating, trying still to understand the meaning of her transformation.  Gladness, however, spends time in the village, offering to make himself useful to the villagers in whatever small ways he can.  They gradually begin to accept him, but much as they might a machine or pet.  They use him for mundane tasks – chopping wood, carrying water, moving loads – but they do not fully understand him as a sentient being.
