Once Oxvard is sufficiently rested and feeling a little better, Tsadok questions him to see if he has any additional knowledge that might help the group, especially in relation to the patrols.

Na Bith Mo Riocht Tá!
"Well, you know . . . they're Gnolls. Meaning that while there are a lot of 'em, they're not very enthusiastic about walking around a mostly empty town in the heat. Kardswann keeps 'em on a pretty short leash, but any time they think they can get away with it they'll settle in for a quick rest in the shade.

"On the other hand, once they're stirred up they're . . . quite effective. They do love to hurt things."

"So we will do better to move around the city at meal times and late in the day, then?"

Tsadok

Tsadok considers the beaten man's words and thinks back to some of the spots he saw the Gnolls patrolling.

"I guess we are ready to start evening the numbers."

He smiles and looks to Houwlou as he speaks knowing his friend will be ecstatic to get started after holding in his rage during their time at the battle market.

First Post
Tsadok

Tsadok will think about where he saw a small patrol group of Gnolls outside the walls and will describe the scene to the others.

"Maybe if the rest of you lie in wait, Howlou and I can approach them from the road. They already know us so we might be able to approach them closely and get in a blow or two before they can react, then the rest of you can join the fight."

Scotley

Hero
Keeland carefully puts a fresh bowstring on Tempest and double checks that all his arrows are sound. He makes sure his waterskin is full and all his gear carefully stowed. Finally he hones and oils his blade and makes sure it eases smoothly from the scabbard. He hums various tunes as he works making sure his magic is ready to roll off the tongue. "I am ready", he announces when it seems that most of the others have finished their own preparation.
