Yttrian lays down the maps on the space cleared by Portis. He squints oddly at the girl once he determines she is one, but shrugs to himself internally. If she had her own reasons for protecting her identity, then who was he to judge? He follows along with the maps as she lays out the...

As the rushing water subsides, Evelyn looks at the crush of people crammed into the dark, rocky tunnel. She pokes her head out, but the arrow isn't illuminating anything useful. Glad she didn't get soaked by the water, she sheathes her blade and reaches over her back to rummage in her pack...

During the trip through the town square, Yttrian had briefly darted into a shop along the way and purchased a case for the maps on loan from the Duke's library. Now, standing in camp he pulls out the case again and gingerly extracts the map, trying to line up the picture on the page with the...

Yttrian inclines his head at Kethra. "Indeed. We have gathered what information we can. I think we're prepared to head out. I imagine an early start in the morning?"

Evelyn's ears process the roar of the oncoming water even before her eyes can identify it. Her feet carry her purely on instinct as she darts for the side corridor. [roll0] Move: to A4 Any chance of grabbing someone (say Brother Lantern) and moving him with me? Edit: Looks like he doesn't need...

Yttrian finishes up his own research and thanking the sage once again, secures the maps as best he can among his gear, resolving to buy a scroll case or similar before the expedition leaves town. He trails Icosa and Lyllie on their way to the banquet hall and quietly ducks in behind them. He...

Evelyn curses silently to herself, torn between the need to see and the desire to rush ahead. Tied to the light carried by Brother Lantern, she crouches down where she is and whispers quietly to the others. "We've been spotted."

Evelyn looks up the passage in the direction Lupin points, deeper into the darkness of the cave. She tries to keep her voice down as she considers her companions."Alright, who's going first then?"

Evelyn shrugs at Jax's suggestion. "The rest of us still need light, which is going to be obvious for a long distance. Would you be okay going in alone, that far ahead of us?" She looks back and forth between the side chamber and the continuing path. "Steps or stream?"

Yttrian thanks the sage and Lyllie for their efforts and sets about copying down and gleaning whatever information he can from the maps, focusing on the Sanctuary itself and the way or ways inside. He isn't much of a scholar, but hopefully some of this information will translate into useful...

Evelyn nods at Salazar and Lantern. "Very well. We proceed. " She keeps her sword drawn as she accompanies the others back to the cave entrance. Maybe switch up the order to put the heavies in front and the light in the middle. Salazar, Roy, Lantern, Evelyn, Lupin, Jax

Evelyn goes back to the group to report. "Two more goblins on guard duty. Lupin and I took care of them before they could raise an alarm, but there's no sign of captives or bodies. From here we're looking at the cave. We're gonna need some light."

Evelyn curses quietly to herself as she spots the guards just too late to avoid coming into their view. Too late now, they have to be silenced before an alarm can be put out. She draws her blade and darts in towards the nearest goblin. Her sword catches the goblin in the neck before he has a...

Evelyn crouches down amid the brush beside the trail and silently gestures for the others to stay put for a moment. Then tries to catch the feral halfling's eye and inclines her head at, indicating for Lupin to come along as she scopes out the cave entrance. [roll0] [roll1]

As far as marching, our party seems to split itself up into three general groups. Sneaky (Lupin, Evelyn) Heavy (Roy, Salazar) Squishy (Lantern*, Jax) Unless you think there's a good chance of ambush from the rear, that also seems like a generally good marching order (two by two) or a starting...

Yttrian briefly peruses the shelves of the library, trailing a finger along a shelf and glancing at the spines. However, casting an eye around the room, he quickly realizes that he is out of his depth. He flags down one of the wandering sages. "I have a need for maps of the area around the...

Evelyn dutifully relays what she has found to the rest of the group, and offers her own commentary. "Well, they weren't walking themselves, but two things big enough to be Mr. Rockseeker and his escort were dragged this way. Also, we should expect more goblins."

Evelyn joins Brother Lantern in looking over the horses. "Presumably the same goblins ambushed these two. Maybe killed them and dragged their bodies off into the brush" She bites her lip and frowns distractedly as she considers the woods to either side of the trail. "I hope not, though...

Still here, I think we mostly just tried to interact with NPCs first instead of each other. *shrug*

Evelyn nods over to the west where Lupin has dispatched the final goblin. She pulls out a rag and begins wiping her sword clean again, glancing around at the battlefield. "Well that could have gone worse." She considers the injuries now carried by her companions. "Or better, I suppose. Is...
