Turthain shrugs at Shiyana's look. "They're orcs," he says simply, as if that explains everything. Then he cleans his blade and sheaths it before searching the corpses for loot.

The adventurers quickly search the two sentry orcs and find 16 cp, 22 sp, and 9 gp.

Turthain pockets the coin, and then points to the cave entrance. "Onward, then?"

When the adventurers get down to the place above the cave where the Orc sentries were posted, in addition to the coins that they find on the Orcs themselves, they see the remains of a fire, two fire-hardened skewers that appear to have the gnawed-upon remnants of two large rats, and a fairly sizeable bell that measures about 7 inches across.

Odo, weapon in hand and at the ready, cautiously moves into the camp for a closer look. "Perhaps we need to dispose of this bell. No sense in making it easy for the friends of these two to alert the whole place to our presence. We should likely conceal these bodies too."

Turthain nods, and carefully picks up the bell, wrapping his hand around the clapper so that cannot sound. "I'll take this into the woods and hide it."

OOC:

How far is Turthain taking the bell, and how will he hide it?

Rhun · Nov 2, 2012

Turthain carries the bell perhaps one hundred feet into the forest, and then looks for a hollow in a tree trunk in which to leave the bell. If such a thing cannot be found, the elf puts the bell down between the thick roots of a tree, close of the trunk, and covers it with leaves. If possible, he removes the clapper from the bell before doing so.

About 110 yards out, Turthain finds a hollow tree about three feet in diameter. There is a fissure in the trunk large enough for him to squeeze the bell through, and plenty of pith at the base of the trunk to cushion the bell's fall when he gently drops it about two feet to the earth, after removing and stashing the clapper on his person.
