Yes, quests are in order. Swords and knives are 100% perfect - foes there will be. Glad to have you along.
My first rule of going anywhere - do I have lip ice? Trust me it's one of those things that you greatly regret not having when you really need it. I know I'm weird but it's on my essentials list (I've just realised I would probably not be great in the apocalypse but my lips won't be chapped so there's that hahaha) -
What would you LIKE to quest for? You can create the adventure too :)
