"Were you two alone or can we expect more visitors? And how did you find out about the basilisks?" asks Irrinaer.
"The rest must have scattered. They weren't Basilisks, though, just thugs. Thugs don't have the skill that we Basilisks do."
At that moment a dwarf flanked by two humans arrive on the scene, wearing the uniform of the Sharn watch. "What be goin' on here?" the dwarf asks.

As Irrinaer do his questionning, Benedict go in front of the dwarf. "Welcome officer. Our caravan have been attacked by these two men. The snipe on our employer from there and there." tells Benedict, poiting the point where they have been hiding. "The almost kill him and tried to attack others members of our caravan. As they have done so, the have glide from there point down here, most likely using some magical effect. We have defended the caravan, as we have been hired as guard. We have been doing our job. One of the bandit was killed, but the other one barely survived and my companion are trying to revive him before handing him to teh authority instead of teh morgue. Is there anyway we can help you, officer?" tells Benedict.
OOC
Benedict don't hesitate to give details of the attack to gain time for Irranaer. But he don't talk about the shards or the Basilisk.

"Hey, you," the dwarf watchman says to Irrianer. "Leave the questioning to me."
The bandit replies, however. "Nobody knows the leader of the Basilisks. He keeps himself anonymous.We were hired by a client to get the Eberron shards though."

The dwarf turns to the bandit. "So you work for the Basilisks, eh? I'm going to take you in for more questioning."
He turns to the party. "Good work today. We'll carry on from here."

"Go with these gentlemen, my friend. They will treat you fairly." Irrinaer says.
"Let's get out of here. There is too much danger here."
Irrinaer climbs back on the wagon and reloads his crossbow.

"Fine, let's go in that case. And I would expect they will send a new group against us. I doubt they will stop after the first attempt with what we carry." tells Benedict. He charges the llot they have gathered in one caravan before climbing back in the caravan he was, his chain ready for action, and his bow not too far.

Thral'k snorts, and makes a mental note to keep an eye on the creates. If dragonshards they be, these softskins did not deserve them. Without word, he makes his way stealthily back to the beginning of the caravan, waiting for word to move.

"Let us move on," the gnome Hubble says. Fred, Gerald and Swift get back on their wagons, and the journey continues.
You head north on the road leaving from Sharn to Wroat. As you travel, you pass by merchants going the other way to Sharn, some of which acknowledge your presence.
On your second day of travel, you reach First Tower. Hubble tells you, "I will make some arrangements for lodging. You have a few hours to do as you please until evening."

Thral'k grumbles at they stop at First Tower, unhappy at the softskin settlement. The weather was to its liking, but the forest was not the same as its jungle, and it put the scout on its nerves. Plus, the thought they were taking dragonshards---the most holy stones---to be 'sold' irked Thral'k. But it was not going to make a move. Instead, it sullenly kept watch near the caravan.

As he has been given the permission to leave his position for a few hours, Benedict decide to visit a bit the city. Once he has spotted an interetsing sight, he will settle down and starts to draw to pass time and relax before returning to his post.
