It's likely. Even when I snuck away, someone attempted to kill me - and two of my dear new friends were with me, at the time. If the other mercenary had not shown up, I was going to turn myself in to keep them safe, but... I fear for what could have happened.
[ the scariest thing in the world is to make a friend and lose them because of his bloodline. his background. he treasures the precious few he has (and the many, many he has here) so that it would be devastating. ]
... But. I get to plant them myself, here. And enjoy them - and sit in the dirt with a dear friend, after a very long day. So... I have many, many experiences that I've built here to treasure. Festival or not.

I don't think I have to tell you my thoughts on this when you already know I find that incredibly unfair. But at least, here, you have some options. We should plant some more of them.
