"I wouldn't be so sure, Miss Midnight. It could well be that our targets are still unloading the spoils of their most recent attack." Yohna states, then gives a resolute nod to the dwarf who had found them their lead. She takes up position at the back, preparing to weather any sneak attack from behind, being careful to still give Breezy a clear line of fire past her.

Falka, aided by Keavan tracks into the woods. Every bent twigs, every disturbed leaves she examines with an air of gravity. She leads the party to a dell. Looking down and around the dell, tracks seems to have been lost to her - as if the tracks were more carefully covered up.
Vardo and Yohna, looking further down the dell where it ends on a cliffside, surrounded by thick bushes they both think they saw a glint or a flicker through the bush but from this distance and the thickness of the surrounding bush, it's hard to tell what it could be if anything.

Party is still atop the dell and the cliffside with the bushes is about quarter a mile down the dell.Aug 24, 2018 1:56 pm
I have a bad feeling about this...
Vardo whispers, "How easy were the signs to track? Is it possible it was exaggerated or left on purpose for people to follow?" He takes a harder look at the region where he thinks he saw glint, hoping to see movement or any other sign that might give away an ambush party.

OOC:
The tracks were faint and difficult to follow, according both Falka and Keavan.* It doesn't seem as though it was left there on purpose. From this distance you can't make out anything else.NOTE: Falka technically should have gotten bonus or advantage on her survival roll due to Keavan helping but her roll was good enough as is.

Narrowing her gaze, Yohna stares at the bushes further down the hill. Looking across at Vardo and seeing that he too appears to have spotted it, she raises her shield and signals to the others with a whisper. "Down there, in the bushes." Having said that, she carefully proceeds down the dell and closer to the foliage to see what is lurking there, cautious of movement or sound on the way with her eyes trained on the origin of the glint.

When you say cautious, do you mean you're trying to be stealthy? If so please also roll Stealth check.EDIT: Make sure to account for any potential disadvantage due to armor if applicable.

Not stealthy, just have my shield up and ready for anything to pounce out or something.Aug 24, 2018 4:05 pm

Just slowly approaching on foot, keeping my ear out for any movement or other threats (Unless I've read wrong and it's not possible to approach by foot)Aug 24, 2018 4:40 pm

Vardo will be keeping her covered with his bow, making sure to keep a good angle for line of sight.Aug 24, 2018 5:03 pm
OOC:
Assuming the group is moving with Yohna. If not, Breezy will back her up. He, however, WILL try to be stealthyOOC:
Oh look! Breezy the Bumbling Stealth Jockey found a pile of bubble wrap and proceeds to jump up and down popping it. :/Last edited August 24, 2018 5:05 pm

Okay I will assume that you (Yohna) will stay your distance (about 400 yards away) and slowly walk down to the dell.Aug 24, 2018 5:32 pm
Breezy "stealthly" follows Yohna down to the dell, taking some care to go from tree to tree to bush. It may be the unfamiliar environment but, his attempt is a slight bit clumsy, occasionally stepping on twigs with audible snap.

Keavan sees Yohna's signal and falls in next to her, keeping a wary eye out as they approach the cliff.

Yohna's head scans from side to side as she becomes more aware of the lack of cover, Breezy's haphazard approach causing her to stop in her tracks a few times, mistaking him for an incoming threat or trap. Her unease subsides slightly when Keavan joins her, and she pushes onward until she reaches the bushes, where, if she doesn't make out anything immediately, she'll use her mace to carefully push the foliage aside and get a look at what's causing the glow.

Keavan falls in line next to Yohna keeping a keen eye on the cliff, though he spies nothing unusual.

Vardo draws the bowstring tight as Yohna pushes the foliage aside...

Holding action. If anything attacks either Yohna or Keavan, he'll fire.Last edited August 24, 2018 6:18 pm
