The orcs down in the small ravine are rip-roaring drunk, having for the first time in quite a while being able to be off by themselves with no stronger one lording over them. As they yell and laugh and break wind... the party goes about finding the best route to move on past and continue into the mountains.
Tregar and Henry try looking around for the best path up and around the camp, but with their armor being what it is... they fear getting too close until they actually have to move on. Henry's eyes help the dwarf spot the occasional trouble-spot, but Tregar just can't get a good enough view to guarantee a silent path. (Henry Aid Another Perception DC 10: [10] + 3 = 13 *success* / +2 to Tregar's Perception check) (Tregar Perception DC 15: [6] + 5 + 2 = 13 *failure*)
However, in her animal form, Gala has absolutely no problem picking her way around the camp, and to the orcs in the midst of a meal, is no distraction whatsoever. She finds the potential problem spots in the earth and digs around them... dropping sinkholes, moving stray rocks, helping out with anything that might cause an accident when the group moves on. (Gala Perception DC 15: [6] + 13 = 19 *success*)
Once the path is made, Dorn brings everyone together and gives a speech that not only calms the rising anger in Wendigo, but also focuses everybody on the job they have ahead. It is a monumental piece of oration that few would have heard before and less will hear again. (Dorn Diplomacy DC 15: [20] + 18 = 38 *success*)
Thus, as much as Wendigo might want to have gone down there to punish the fiends who attacked his bretheren, he easily heeds Dorn's words and leads the group forward on their sneaking around the band. (Wendigo Stealth DC 10: [13] + 12 = 25 *success*)
Gloomblade chuckles to himself, as the knowledge of the golden tongue of "The Speaker" is common to him... as it was Tirae whose followers got the halfork put away in the first place. Gloomblade learned quickly while in the prison not to cross "The Speaker" and his disciples... and he sure isn't going to do that now. He throws Dorn a 'thumbs up', then moves off after Wendigo. (Gloomblade Stealth DC 10: [10] + 11 = 21 *success*)
One by one, the rest of the party follows suit... and they get past the orc encampment with a minimum of fuss. It was a close call, but they six militiamen have a job to do, and do it they shall.
