The players are given a pair of horses and a wagon, and enough provisions for the travel, one player must be picked as the driver

Traveling form city from city is very simple, the route is very simple and relatively safe, the next city being nearby requiring 3 days of travel which would be mostly skipped over,

Traveling mainly through grasslands, with the wagon having enough space to accommodate everyone, the travel is very smooth, the road very light and not requiring any sort of deviation, or extra protection at night.

Eventually while traveling a decision must be taken the path is split at two an slower path through the forest where they have to cross the river luckily the wagon is tall enough to cross with no issues, but it would require passing by an small forest which would slow the travel, or rising elevation and passing through a bridge. in both cases it begins to rain
