"Friends, you have saved my life. Please, escort me to Phandalin and I will secure gold, 50 pieces for your rescue and escort".

His well spoken words come with great labour, for it appears that this man has been badly beaten. In torn but well-tailored garments, he is without possessions but instead left with bleeding cuts and painful bruises.

The goblins are dashing towards the woods, some distance away. Running for 2 rounds, they are 120ft away. It is possible to reach them using the dash action, which means you won't be able to run stealthily

Otto doubles back to his companions. He shakes his head, "I lost 'em. They had too much of a head start. I figured they're not worth chasing after all alone. We'd best be wary moving forward." Gesturing towards Sildar and Shane, Otto asks, "How are they?"
Oct 18, 2015 3:06 pm
"Seems like this one will survive... the little one is still unconscious. Sildar, can you walk? Would you prefer to walk? I do not mind carrying you either." Then to the group, "I see no reason not to help poor Sildar, here. Besides, he may have information to help us locate Rockseeker. I propose we find a relatively safe place to camp for a bit. Once we have recovered a bit we can head toward Phandalin, if you are all amenable."

"Yes, some rest would do all of us good" Medve agrees. Motioning to the halfling draped over his shoulder, "And this one is starting to get a little heavy.."

Egan has been very quietly contemplating their current situation. He is a little saddened by the fact that Movith's gambit didn't quite payoff. He also liked the idea of having goblin underlings, but this wasn't to be his path in life.

He turns his attention back to the general course in front of them.

"I agree that we need rest, but perhaps the wood isn't the best place for any of us." He motions to the grove of trees. "We already know that owlbears are around, and now, there are goblins amongst the trees, one's that aren't our best friends either."

Egan curses under his breath. "If only we had transport, we could allow Shane and Sildar some covered respite while we make way to Phandalin.

Egan's eyes look out at nothing in particular, as he remembers the brutal pounding and the sensation of rocks collapsing around him. Egan shakes his head quickly to clear it.

Egan reaches out to Medve. "I can take my turn holding him if you'd like. Forgive me for seeming to be cowardly, but I am still shaken by having a behemoth pounding at my head."

"Rockseeker? Which of them do you mean? Listen, friends: I have information that you may find valuable. I do know that we should not remain here much longer - take me to Phandalin, but please walk slowly because I have been dealt many injuries during my captivity here.

The Stonehill Inn would be a good place to rest in Phandalin - please hurry."


Shane awakens at 1hp

"Ouch. What happened in there? How long was I out?"
Oct 22, 2015 4:50 pm
"Welcome, back little one. I didn't know if you'd survive. You must have a dwarf's stubbornness."

To Sildar, "We're looking for Gundren Rockseeker... but as you say, we should seek safety before discussing further. Does anyone have any ideas about transport? Or shall we walk to Phandalin?" Movith swaps his hammer for a handaxe, and begins walking slowly toward the road.

"I'm just happy to be finally out of the damn caves! I can only stand so much! Ugh!" Otto looks genuinely shaken. To Movith, he says, "Lead us to Phandalin then, my gigantic friend! I'll keep an eye on our flank." Otto moves off to the side, guarding the group's right flank.

"This Gundren you speak of, I am acquainted with him. Indeed, the three of them, with Tharden and Nundro, have certainly made a big discovery, so I am not surprised that you are looking for him. What is your purpose in meeting with him - is there a price on his head?

I will lead you down the path they took me from the road. It seems they have laid some crude traps there so watch carefully. From there, it is only half a day's travel to Phandalin"

"Point the way, Sildar. And, I reiterate, it is no bother to carry you to Phandalin. Should you wish to be placed down at any point, please indicate so." To the rest of the group. "Are you all in favor of traveling to Phandalin to find respite?"
Oct 27, 2015 1:32 pm
"Yes!" Egan says quickly. Eyes constantly on the tree line.

On the path back to the road, Sildar asks if you have heard mention of a human wizard named Iarno Albrek: "Two months ago, he travelled to Phandalin to establish order. To this day, no word has been heard from him by anyone. In truth, I travelled with Gundren to Phandalin to investigate his disappearance, but the two of us were waylaid by the Cragmaw goblins in the spot just ahead of us."

Reaching the road where you too were ambushed, you find the two horses still blocking the road. Something large is obscured on the other side of the roadway, lying very still. A muffled but shrill voice can be heard coming from the same direction.

Still stalking parallel to the road, Otto takes cover and trains his crossbow on the mystery object by the road, alert for danger.

Otto hears a tiny voice, straining. The dark object is about the size of a supplies wagon.

Otto emerges from the trees and approaches the object, crossbow ready. He motions to Movith and the others, pointing at the wagon and silently gesturing that he hears something.

The thing is obscured by what, exactly?

Shane is staying out of the way, still worse for wear. If he detects hostility, he will attempt to hide nearby

Catching Otto's warning, Medve quietly draws his scimitar, and will cover Shane's movement if things get hostile.
