Hmmph Actaeon grunts as he's lifted onto the wall, and climbs to the window.

Actaeon skillfully climbs the outer wall of the mill and hangs precariously onto the windows edge. Checking the window, while closed it is not locked or barred. Actaeon carefully opens the window to peer inside.

If Actaeon goes inside, Kel will keep up a Message spell conduit with him (recasting every round), in case he, or we, see trouble. "I'll try and keep a magical link with Actaeon," he explains to the others. "This will take most of my attention."

Harold, leery of entering this place (he suspects an ambush because he would also try to do this), whispers to the group: what should we do to draw these fools out that are inevitably waiting for us here?

Actaeon replies in a whisper to the message, Definitely an ambush. 6 of them are all up on the loft awaiting for us to enter. I have an idea to lure them out- get ready for an immediate counter-ambush if you guys are willing to trust me.

Kel passes that one quietly to the others, saying: "He says there are 6 of them set up for an ambush in the loft. He says to get ready for a counter-ambush. I'll try and put a few of them to Sleep; attend to those who don't drop."

Kel will wait for confirmation from the Bartholomew and Harold, then signal ready via Message to Actaeon.

Harold will sneak away from the door, about 60 feet (range of darkvision), and wait poised to fire an arrow at a combatant not put to sleep by Kel's Sleep spell.

Assuming the door will be the center of attention Bartholomew stands ready for combat, sword in hand...

Am I able to see them? Cause if they're in position, Actaeon will act.

OOC:

Check the map...I marked two doors now...the larger red one is a closed barn door, the smaller one leads into the office section. Its a two story building on the larger section, Acteon is currently 10-12 feet off the ground peering into a window directly above the barn double door. As a note Acteon, you also notice a set of stairs to the right side of the loft area and they appear to be huddled mostly around an opening in the loft floor looking down into the first floor area.

If anyone wishes to move before we continue, let me know now..otherwise just post READY

Actaeon holds on with his right hand, and quickly grabs the cultist mask strapped to his side with his left, and puts it on. He then puts it on, and slams open the window, yelling in Draconic, Hail Tiamat! before poking his head through, and pulls himself up speaking in common, Your ambush is compromised! Orders are to retreat, and regroup. The town garrison mounted a large scale counter attack, and our main raid group requires backup.

OOC:

Hells yeah!

The 5 guards look around at each other somewhat stunned to see one of their own climb in through the window, they seem to get ready to descend the stairs but look to the Cultist at the other end, clearly leading the group.

The Cultist immediately asks, why did you just climb the outside of the barn? Where are the ones outside?

OOC:

Jeez, one of them is questioning after a nat 20 even?

Actaeon rolls his eyes, and replies They already left, and told me to climb to stay safe from walking in to my death. Understandable right? Now let's get going- we're needed, so stop wasting time.

OOC:

Hah, I had to make you work for it, other roll wasn’t needed but nice again.

The Cultist nods at Actaeon and addresses the rest of the guards, You heard him boys let’s get moving! with that the leader begins leading his men down the stairs.

OOC:

Actaeon, what will be your next move as they begin descending?
