Tsch, so we're letting them live, eh? Iman catches the rope as he kicks the dropped crossbow to the other side of the log. Grabbing the bandit leader by his injured shoulder, Iman slams him face down, begins to tie his wrists behind his back, then kicks him off the log towards Barendd.

After making his way down the log, Iman hands Barendd the handaxe that initiated this battle.
Who are these guys?

Seeing Barendd standing brought a smile to Raishe's face.

He grabs a piece of rope from what Aegar left behind, and tied the arms of the bandit at his feet as well.
"No hard feelings, I forgive you lad." Whispers Raishe as he touches the bandit's forehead.

Seeing Kit hop out of the bushes just as he was crossing the treeline, Aegar stopped and hollered into the wood Paegflap! Its okay, Kit is over here! Come Back!. He strolls over to the nearest dead bandit and pokes at him with his foot. Didn't put up much of a fight now did he? If you other hoods don't want to reach the same fate, you best start telling us whats going on here. Aegar says this loud enough for all the bandits to here, and as speaks he swings his battle-ax (as if practicing for an execution)

Barendd collects his various accouterments, placing his axes back at his side, and sheathing his scimitar. He takes special care to grab the bolt he was shot with, placing it into his pack. He tied up his assigned bandit. Barendd then walks up to the bandit who shot him, staring intensely, almost menacingly. Then a smile breaks out on his bearded face. Well people have to eat I suppose, and that was a hell of a shot. I told you this was the wrong group. Turnabout is fair play I suppose. Barennd the tears off the symbol the bandit wears saying, "This should make a good tattoo." He then turns his attention to Aegar, "You old lout have your fun and make your jokes now, when we find a tavern, we'll be playing some knuckley dice. You know, the drinking game I've never lost and you've never won." To the group at large. Well gents, now that I'm done embarrassing myself, I suggest we either set up camp or continue on to town, either way our new acquaintances made mention of some sort of reward, so we may want to bring them along. At any rate they wanted our belongings,
but if any of theirs were to suddenly become yours then there would be no harm. They'll soon be incarcerated, and this definitely falls in line with the life they lead. With that Barendd starts to rummage through the head bandits belongings, make care to not aggrevate the axe wound. No need to add injury to insult.

"Heading into town sounds good, we can turn these fine folk in once there."
Raishe raises the somewhat unconscious bandit in order to assist his walking back into town. As he does this he realizes the irony of the situation. "I should be turned in" , he thinks.

What of this roadblock then? Did anyone of you guys see a way around?

Well last time I tried to do anything with the log I got ambushed and shot, maybe we should just go over it.

One could always go around.

I believe going around may be the faster option, with our new captives in tow. Aegar walks over and helps the bandit who Iman shoved off the log to his feet. You spoke of a reward for your capture, Who is it that is offering this reward? And where might we find them?

wait, is the reward worth enough to justify the effort to bring them with us for a time? I mean we COULD kill them. I mean I almost died, it seems just... Just Kidding, technically they're my people. At least the past me.

Pageflap walks over to the log and pats a section that he noticed earlier, drawing attention to it.
He mimics the sound of chopping wood then speeds it up a bit, noting that if they could go through it this would be the fastest point to try. Pointing at the ends of the log that go deeper into the woods, Pageflap repeats the howling sound to remind them of danger.

He pauses and cocks his head to the side, before using Prestidigitation to make a small illusion of a flame appear on his talon. The sound of a campfire fills the air as Pageflap suggests maybe burning the weak section, looking around at the surrounding foliage to assess the risk of a forest fire.

"Smarter not harder. Great idea Pageflap. Any objections team

Aegar pulls 2 handaxes out of his pack Lets do it, anyone need an axe? I have a spare

None, here. Light it up Crow, but don’t go burning us all up!

Deciding to be careful about this, Pageflap pulls out his waterskin and gestures for everyone else to do the same. Telling them through the sound of a splash and a fire being smothered that this is a just in case the fire starts spreading thing, he also points to Kit and says "Prestidigitation" before snuffing the illusory fire out. The six gallons of water and the magical ability to snuff campfires should be enough from keeping them safe, and Iman has been excellent at finding fresh water for all six of them to drink.

Once the bandits are away from the log, Pageflaps speaks the sound of a match being lit, and at the wave of his talons a Fire Bolt gets launched at the log's weak point. Some Prestidigitation keeps the fire from spreading and more fire bolts cover a larger area of the weak point.

Rather than relight the sections that run out of fire on their own, Pageflap opts to leave those to the axe wielders. The blackened wood is weak enough for the axes to pretty much shave off.
