There's a wagon coming up to the switch-back (where the road comes up the cliff, near the river's waterfall, for you who don't know the area). It's a rough climb, so it'll take them about half an hour to reach the top, and us, about half that to get there, if we want to ambush them. It's a supply run for the Temple, I'd bet, and it's guarded by a pair of Beast Boys - that's the mercenary company that's low enough to take gold from the Cult of the Dragon. The driver is probably a cultist, and there's a few recruits on the back. I dunno if they're new cultists, or just some poor fools who have come to work, but they look fresh. A half-dozen total on the wagon, not counting the two oxen."[spoiler="dc12 History. Soldiers or that sort get Advantage"]Their captain is Bardaby 'the Beast' Coombs. His Beast Boys have a terrible reputation, not just because of the jobs they take, but for murder, rape, and extortion as well.[/spoiler]Volyanna suggested, "Well, now we must choose groups quickly. If any are taking Loklafd's boats to the Lake, I think that you should not join in the Ambush. But anyone who is going to cross the River by the Bridge, whether you then continue to the Gate, the Watchtower, or the Kobold Caves, I think that there is no better opportunity than to do it under the guise of a returning wagon.""I can show you where it is, and how to avoid being seen by the Watchtower and still make it to the Switchback!" offered Corrah.It was only to be decided who would join her.</blockquote>
