Tyris watches the others as they go to help the fallen woman, but makes no move to do so himself.
Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

Nothing seems obviously wrong with the woman except perhaps exahaustion, yet nothing seems to waken her. Sven manages to rig up a place on top of the middle cart to lay her down on. There are no signs of anybody coming through the woods, and it seems likely that wherever she came from, she came by the road. A sound of rushing water can be heard faintly in the distance in the direction the caravan was travelling.

"Maybe I an I outta make camp 'ere, 'till da Ooman rise up. Dis Queen, I know noting 'bout." Jarro suggested, wanting to understand the warning before they pressed on.

Of course, it we get ambushed from the sides, my charge bonus is out the window. So, maybe I should be the rear guard?

1. Lord Adelin Mallaby recruits me and some other adventurers from the Tavern. He asked for protection, on a trip to Allaria. He is to be wed to Elena of Terconis, daughter of the Count of Terconis. According to tradition, the wedding must take place at the ancient chapel of the Terconis family, and the chapel in Count's Crovale lies in the high hills of old Allaria. The lady and the Count are already there.
2. The adventurers board Starlight's Veil, Mallaby's brig. The ship is built for speed, not cargo or battle.
3. Intended Path: Land at Ristaren (100 miles south of Fromish), and make our way up the old highway to here. A mile or two off the highway is the village of Achirem, which is still thriving in the midst of rough country, so they say. From there we cross Derianis ridge, and then down to Crovale. The last part through the hills may be dangerous.
4. We land at Ristaren, and it is a small, poor town.
5. We killed a bunch of spiders.
6. We arrived at Achirem, where Kelvan told us to watch out for:
a. Bramble scar: some kind of trap/pit thing we can't avoid.
b. Hzaka Raiders
c. Ismene: Local robin hood bandit type. Lady, with a band of rugged ladies.
7. Get Jumped, or try to Jump, some Hzaka Raiders.
8. Meet up with Ismene's band, but managed to talk our way through it.
9. Encounter: Angry Bear, Angrier bees, and a hungry frog. Graval got eaten by a frog, but Spider saved him.
10. Meet with Ismene and convince her to give us safe passage if we help her take on a local Goblin raider.
11. Launch surprise attack on Goblin tower. Climb to roof and take out archers. Jump in the tower, and find more hobgoblins.
12. Run in to some creepy mushroom field. Attacked by big mushrooms.
13. Stop to rest in an abandoned (?) charcoal burner's hut.
14. Get to Church: wife/father-in-law sent Lord M on a wild goose chase, and don't want to marry him after all.
15. Find out true love Ismene is kidnapped, and we go to her rescue. Fight a bunch of goblins.
16. Rescue Ismene from dirty goblins, give lord mallaby a chance at true love, and collect rewards.

"That would be unwise," says Pharodeys. "We shall bring her. She may recover; she may not. If she does, she will no doubt explain herself in due course."
Pharodeys walks stiffly over to the trees that the woman emerged from. She examines the ground and listens to the whispers of the wind in the leaves.
[sblock=Tracking attempt]Perception (tracking; +4 speak with spirits)
20(1d20) +10 +4 = 34
Pharodeys wants to know which direction the woman came from, and how she came--was she running, walking, weaving as though drunk? Did she drop anything?
Also let me know if I can recover Speak With Spirits before the next encounter.[/sblock]

Pharodeys's quick examination reveals that the woman has come from up the road in the direction the caravan is travelling. She has not been moving steadily, but seems to have stopped every so often, for what reasons are not clear. From time to time she looks to have stumbled off into the vegetation beside the road, and not moved into it gracefully, instead trampling ground cover and breaking off bits of shrubbery. There is no evidence of anyone else moving into or through this area recently.

Pharodeys retraces the woman's path, her eyes closed (although it is difficult to tell, as she has no visible irises or pupils).
"This is the way she came," she says softly. "The grass knows her feet. The wind knows her hair. She was stumbling. The twigs know the pain of her passage. Let us continue. We shall see where she came from."
