[IC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Book 2)

[JustinCase]

Brother Pelegon stops his stagger abruptly when he hears the insects, not knowing if it means anything but pretty sure it does. Despite swaying on his feet somewhat, the monk appears alert to anything out of the ordinary...

OOC: Perception [roll0]

Some of you can see another group of lizardfolk in brush ahead. One steps forward waving the hunting party forward. He is wearing leather armor. It is odd. None of the other lizardfolk you've seen so far were wearing armor. The hunting party goes toward him. Another lizardfolk in armor appear. They inspect the hunting party's kills before the hunting party disappears into the swamp beyond the guards. You are sure there were only two guards. It looks like there might be a clearing a few hundred feet from the guard post.

"Is that my invitation to char them? If so, would you prefer medium or well done." He asks. Everret is clearly joking but he projecting his anger into the statement.

Drake cracks his neck as he fiddled with an oil flask. “I’ve found if you do it hot enough, fast enough, you can char the outside and leave the inside nice and pink.”

"Alright, it appears you're correct," admits Brother Pelegon in a harsh whisper. "So do you want to start a fire that attracts the entire swamp, or are we going to take out those two sentinels quietly?"

Swithun stood silently twitching his tail. He would follow any plan that was accepted by the group but he was growing frustrated by the constant debate. He did not enjoy killing but he felt it was inevitable and if it had to be done then he wanted to get on with it.

OOC: Do the wagon tracks we were following also head in this direction? If so, Surina will agree. But she is puzzled by the armor on these lizard folk when they haven’t seen armor on the others they’ve encountered.

“These lizardfolk have armor on. Those we encountered did not. Is it possible there are two factions in the swamp?”

OOC: despite her concerns, Surina will agree to follow the decision of the group, even if it involves attacking

 

[jmucchiello]

GM: No, the wagon tracks (which were as straight as a swamp would allow) are about 400 yards behind you. You turned about 70 degrees east off the tracks to follow the hunting party to this location.

"Would you like me to find out for you. Politely of course." He asks.
