Typically Lorne sticks to patrolling inside the village walls because that's where most everyone else stays, too. Sometimes, though, someone will decide to wander off into the forest or the mines, and in this cold anyone spending much time outdoors is asking to get sick or freeze to death. Bundled thoroughly against the cold, Lorne opts to take a short trek beyond the walls today while the sun is still out. Just in case.

He expects it will be boring. The only thing out here of any interest is Tuo's wagon.
