Trade Routes and Travel

Please bear with me! They're really simple questions that I'm apparently incapable of hunting down answers to on my own -_-


Ok, so the Syliras trade route stops off at Alvadas before continuing on to Riverfall and the like:
a. Would it be possible to hitch a ride, or rather pay to be taken to Alvadas? (Silly question, I know. I just want to be really sure :/)

If 'a' is a yes,
b. When would the ship hit and leave Syliras?
c. How long would the journey take?

Please and thank you! (:

a) I should be possible to buy passage on a trade ship. I don't know if there's an official cost, but I've heard 1 GM per day used as a cost estimate for boat travel prices.

b) I don't think the trade route have any set times at the moment. You can PM your local DS to be sure, but I imagine you can find one whenever you decide to leave.

c) Travel times are tricky, and if anyone has more authority on this they can feel free to correct me, but I'd clock Syliras to Alvadas at 60-90 days by boat.

Likewise if you have any useful skills, you might be able to broker passage by working a job.

This PC has the Blight gnosis. As such, you as a player need to be aware of what that consists of. Wrenmae has an invisible aura that amplifies sickness and disease. Wounds may become infected, small sneezes may become coughing, and a slight fever may become more serious. A nuit's body will also break down faster in the presence of the Blight. These effects may not be immediate, but within the few days following your encounter, the symptoms will manifest. Some sooner than others. I cannot control your character, so creativity will be left up to you. Best wishes and stay healthy!
