Not making any attempt at Stealth, Grontha strides towards the sound in order to find out what is going on.

As Grontha and Ruus stride forward they find themselves in a slight clearing with a very over grown old road running through it. On the road is an interesting sight. It has the right features of a caravan, but the carriage is the size you expect for a wheels, and it's four wheels are now oversized, each the height of a carriage.
Two men are arguing with one another, they seem not to have noticed you all yet. Nearby are two distressed looking horses.

As Haun-ui rounds the bend with the others and takes in the sight, she instinctively wants to go help settle the tempers of the arguing men, and calm the animals. She turns to her companions. "Looks like some 'fair folk' pulled a prank on that carriage. I'll go talk to them. Will one of you please keep a look out for the trickster or other threats while the other accompanies me for safety?" She'll wait for a response, then stride towards the altercation, calling out in a gentle sing-song.
"Hello there! Seems like you could use some help!"

Tomas gives Haun-ui a nod and and follows 10 meters behind her, while keeping an eye on the surrounding area. He is holding a small potion bottle in one hand and his cane in the other. After a short debate with him self, he downs the potion

Tomas make me a perception check.'Yeah, I think we could right now' The younger man shrugs towards their caravan. 'We're looking for a life outside Galt u'see. Wanted a place that didn't execute it's government every other day y'know. But this one 'ere, he said we should go this way, and now some bloody pixie decides t' play a prank on us and we're stuck'
'What other way were we meant to go...besides not all is lost. The damn thing spoke something about a hidden symbol returning it for normal. y' mind helping us search? Especially on the underside, Me backs bad and this one is scared o' mud.' The older one grunts
' 'm not scared, it does bad things for me skin, I've told you.' Is the others retort.

"Hey now, let the short guys start with the underside. Lots less likely to bump my head."
Ruus suits action to words by ducking under the carriage to examine it. He will sweep the area twice, once normally, and again with detect magic.

Tomas as you keep an eye out yo becoming aware of a figure crouched in bushes, then a second slowly sneaking forward, a third up in the tree. You suddenly realise the clearing is surrounded.
Ruus and Grontha you are more focused on the carriage. You spy no magic, not even the lingering magic you'd expect from magic powerful enough to do something like this. Even with most of your focus on looking for the symbol, both of you hear the sound of swords being drawn behind you as the two men go to take advantage of your distraction.

Quietly Tomas cast the Mage Armor spell, while turning around and scanning the horizon.
The words are draconic, for those who are interested in that kind of thing.

After realizing they've been had, Haun-ui pouts and shouts admonishingly, her hand hovering over her sword's handle. "I am very disappointed! Such deception is very rude! Taking advantage of the kindness of strangers in such a fashion is unacceptable! Please allow us and our company to pass unmolested, and I can overlook this slight. If you truly have such a desperate need of supplies, I'm sure we can come to some agreement."

Grontha draws her massive weapon, Herculon, and rests it easily on her shoulder.
"Oh ye don’t wanna be doin that boyyos, lest ye wanna meet whatever deity tis ye worship."
Though her words suggest she wants to avoid combat, Grontha heart starts to race as she feels the thrill of potential conflict.

Grontha seeks to take care of the older one, hoping the younger one might provide some useful intel and can be convinced.
Wading into melee, she pronounces Judgment upon them. "Kurgess, guide my hand!"
Going to assume that is a confirmed critAfter the strike, she will say to the younger one "It is not too late to surrender, I doubt your orders are worth dying for."

As I understand the formation it should look something like this
Hyun is speaking with two bandits, Tomas has followed her a bit behind on the road and we are sounded by 5 bandits, right?

The older one, who slapped the younger, seems to be in charge and one that intimidates his fellow bandits. So he sends two scorching rays at him.

With a quick mutter, Russ reaches over to Grontha and casts Shield of Fortification on her, whispering, "Just in case these bandits are better than we think" Russ then moves up to e6, so that he can cover Tomas with his spear.
