OOC:
probably over 3 hours now since the original party left, I've clocked yall probably at currently almost 10pm.

"Maybe we should find someplace to sleep for the night. I don't think we can do much good in the dark when all we have are some dying tablets and cell phones for light." Carmen looks back toward the house. "We're far from the house. Does anyone know this area? Maybe there's a hotel nearby."
OOC:
Maybe a group Knowledge (Geography) check is in order? It would be untrained, but with Molly's Intellect and some boosts from the rest of us, we might stand a chance of determining if there's someplace to get a room for the night.

OOC:
From the backway everyone came into the property everyone was escorted in skirting the forest the area is actually quiet large if one keeps going you figure you're run into the national forest and the state park to the North and East.

Yall are literally a few hours into the boonies.

"I’m not comfortable sleeping in the woods." Molly glances around. "I think we need to press on, or the trail will run cold. We need to find those kids, soon."

Carmen nods, but her furrowed brow betrays concern about the plan. "Yes, you're probably right, Molly. But did anyone bring a flashlight? Our phones won't last much longer."
OOC:
I don't think any of us has a flashlight among our possessions. Most cell phones have a flashlight function, but we've mentioned narratively before that our batteries are draining. I'm wondering if the GM might allow either a Vigilance check or a Story Point flip to say that we have at least one heavy-duty flashlight on us so that we can press on.

Sure we haven't gotten a use for story points in but lets figure it through RP who's the a 'in the closet prepper'. After experimenting last Friday on this I think this is doable for walking on uneven ground through a forest.

Carmen's not the outdoorsy type, so it wouldn't be her. :)

OOC:
Calvin’s the outdoorsy type for sure.

Calvin is not even ‘closet’ prepper. He lived in the mountains alone for years before he got that mysterious envelope. If anyone is going to have a flashlight buried in his pocket it’s him. He is prone to carry a small carry a small yet bright LED flashlight from time to time. The question is did he remember today.

Well, we've spent a Story Point, so it looks like he did. :)

Updated the story point thread
Calvin in the darkness rummages around and pulls something out of his pack, others may not be able to see it in the darkness as he holds it up like a sword proclaiming victory against the dark.

"let’s go find those kids. Let’s have a quick look around and see if there’s any sign of them having been here first though."

OOC:
lets get an average perception check from someone.

Let's see what we see...

While you don't find any signs of the kids being here you do find some dried meat in a sack and a cloak or blanket stashed in various places out of the elements here.
Mar 22, 2019 3:36 pm
Jack quickly gathers up what he can into the sack. "No sign of them here, lets get a bit of distance away from here before this lot or whoever they signaled come rolling back around"
Mar 22, 2019 4:29 pm
"Yes, we should press on then. I'll follow you, Mr. Calvin. You have the light."
Mar 22, 2019 5:25 pm
"Yes." Molly nods to Calvin. "Lead the way."

The party weaves their way deeper into the forest at night.

Eventually you all realize you hear the sound of your breathing and it's labored although you weren't moving quacking or climbing, between the low light and checking your footing when you feel you might fall or slip you all stop in the quiet sounds of the forest.

Stopping Calvin turns in the darkness and shines light into an out crop of rock a ways from you that has a gap big enough for shelter. Most all feel a bit chilly from the nights temperature and slight breeze at times.

As the group decides how to approach the rocks, Carmen takes a short sniff of the wine Denton is carrying. She whispers, "Mr. Denton, that wine… May I try it? It smells oddly familiar."
