"Exiting Rinstar Highlands, Blazing Farmlands ahead"
It's midday. (5:58 PM)
The autumnal sun is brilliantly hovering high in the sky.

"Eleana was on her way to visit her friend on the Rinstar Highlands east of JG Rime when she went missing. If Matt went out to look for her (or whatever is left of her), he would probably be somewhere along the road over there. "

Hmm... lemme check the lore...

Brady: Matt's niece, Eleana, was best friends with a farmer's daughter, who lived on a farm quite at the edge of the Rinstar Highlands, which are to the east (of JG Rime, the town we left from). She would go visit the farm quite often in the warmer months, as there aren't many other young people in JG Rime and she didn't click with any of them. Eleana was also quite fond of horses, and that farm had lots of them.

Hannah: One day last summer Eleana would again leave JG Rime to visit them, but shortly thereafter, a heavy thunderstorm hit these lands. It kept raining for days, too. After the rain had subsided, Matt started asking around whether we'd seen her niece. It was not unusual that she would stay with the farmer's family for a couple of days, but this time it was different. She didn't come home for one more week, and then Matt decided to leave and visit the farm himself. He came back two days later, claiming that Eleana had never been at the farm the preceding two months.

Brady: That was really hard on him. We organized a search party and retraced her route to the farm, but there was no sign of her. Eventually, we had to give up. Matt however wouldn't calm down for months, became more aggressive and started drinking excessively, all while shouting to himself that he needed to go out and find his niece. Luckily, after these months passed, he came to accept his fate and calmed down.

Hannah: This looks like he had a relapse and went out looking for her, but strangely without telling anybody. He's had breakfast at my tavern this morning still, and he didn't seem any different than usual. Still, I wonder whether he actually hopes to find her alive, after all this time...

Yup. Looks like we're going the wrong way.

Considering its going to be dark, it can't hurt to just head north for an inn and get more information for ourselves right?
