Pillars of Eternity 1, Part 41: Bleak Walkers, Bounties, Mylla, Trade and White Forge

Hey, we ended the last session with Bleak Walkers. How about... we beat up some Bleak Walkers? Off to the Woodend Plains to upgrade Kana's armor. There's not much about the Bleak Walker fight, but the bounty at Dyrford Crossing was much harder than the others. It actually required me to do more than bring a balanced team, and bring a specific cheese team. Still, if you're not juggling a huge party and trying to use everyone, even when they're not the best, and instead just using a team that's generally strong, you'll coast through it fine (skip my attempting to force it with the party I wanted to use to smashing it in one go or so with a well-built caster heavy team.)

The Mylla quest and the quest to do trade negotiations I somehow missed earlier, so we'll knock those out here. Nothing special about them, except that I specifically tried not to kill the wichts in case we can save all the Hollowborn later. I did dislike that Mylla says the treasure is in the woods, so I thought "Russetwood" instead of assuming she obviously hid it near the cave. So, a bit of time wasted. It's also a shame Galvino didn't get an update, but I guess that makes sense since they're concerned you might kill him in White March 1. The trade deal quest feels like it should be more important than it was, but it seems easily missable. I'd have had her give you the quest in the tavern to talk to the new guy in charge to find out what the delay was or have him start it, so it's less missable.
