Marcus will wait for a bit longer, then all of a sudden lunge out from behind the rock and make a break for the town running at full speed.

Downstairs at breakfast, Oculus reads Valeria's note, a bit sad that he has been denied her company. [Oculus is a tiny little man, do they mean they're supposed to take orders from him?]
After hearing the what the soldiers say, he ignores them for a moment and turns to Jasper, conversing in Celestial "That student cover story isn't going to work, huh? Students don't usually have bodyguards. Maybe we should be travelling adventurers too, and just tell them to follow us?"
The soldiers take a long look at you after you finished asking your question. One of them then answers. "Well... No, we aren't supposed to meet with the captain, and sorry he never told me either. He actually never tell us the full details of any mission. On my first assignement with him, I finally figured out that our mission was some kind of suicidal mission when the captain ordered the small unit to charge on an heavily fortified enemy position. Most of the unit was killed in a few seconds, I was seriously injured and fell inconscious. When I woke up I was in camp bed with a healer on my side, I never undestood why I did that. Most of us in the 82nd are trained to never questions orders, and we are not asked to understand them just to execute them. I know that soldiers in other unit usually have a hard time understanding that. You cannot be scared of something you don't know, .. right?"Kangaxx said:"We should probably bring them, they can't keep us secure if they're not with us. But you're right, we'll have to use a different cover story. Or we could tell people the truth, it's more obscure than anything we could make up." Jasper will reply with a grin, in celestial. He then gets some breakfast and sits with the soldiers to eat.
"Are we supposed to meet back up tonight here at the inn?" After they answer that, "Has the captain told you what we're doing out here? He keeps telling us that he'll tell us later."
Your heart is already racing as you lunge out. As you start sprinting you see two militian coming your way "Marcus, everythings Ok, the captain is getting worried"Cannibal_Kender said:Marcus will wait for a bit longer, then all of a sudden lunge out from behind the rock and make a break for the town running at full speed.
The militian take his light crossbow and starts shooting in the same direction as you.Cannibal_Kender said:Marcus says to the uninjured one, "Inform the Captain of the situation. Go!"
Marcus will provide some covering fire in the general direction of where the sniper is (or where he thinks it is). He'll try to spot the sniper if he shoots back.
(OCC: does the other militia man have a bow?)
The half ogre look at you, he seems to be thinking about your proposition. "I guess the woodcutter will enjoy a bit of entertainement, In the mean time take that axe and cut some wood for me." the half-ogre says pointing an axe on stuck in a wooden log.Nac Mac Feegle said:Telic waves his arms placatingly and speaks in a wheedling voice.
Please sir, I'm just looking for a place to stay the night. I can entertain people for you. All I ask is a little food and a corner out of the way to sleep in.
If things look hairy he's ready to break for it. He'll try to avoid attacking now, but if he has to he will.

OCC how many arrow are you planning to shoot?
You shoot a few arrows randomly with no apparent results, the sniper is not answering back.Cannibal_Kender said:(OCC 3 or 4 arrows apiece. Enough so that the second militia man can get to the Captain. If the sniper doesn't start shooting back at us, or give some sign as to his whereabouts, then Marcus and the injured militia man will stop shooting and wait for reinforecements)
