Cold Truths (part 1: The Missing Duke)

Woden becomes cautious. He restrains Skaris and waits for the other members of the party to scout ahead. "Be careful; might be an ambush," he whispers.

"Alright," says Uri, "Swipe and I will break off and flank, while the rest of you approach. Hopefully, we'll see what we'll see what we're dealing with before we're too close." Uri will swing around and take cover, bow in hand.

(OOC- Attempt to Hide and Move Silently. Lemme know if you need my stats.)
 


OOC: FYI it's fairly open between the defensive wall and the "house" where you can see the figure, there really isn't alot of cover between the two. You could break for the "house" and hide around the corner from the figure but that would not give you a clear view...
 

Tyler continues on unworried. "Yes there is obviously some one still here. That does not mean they wish us harm." The young knight continues to walk at a normal pace without drawing any weapons.
 



Whatever it is in the distance seems pre-occupied by somthing as it/they ail to notice the group as they cross the open field. Hiding at the side of the house gives a much better view. the first thing you notice is an absolutely AWFUL smell, akin to the sewers of a large city crossed with rancid meat. On the side of the house where you are there is a small window about six to eight feet from the corner.

Tyler: Walking cautiously through the field is a lonely experience, the others making thier way to the house. As you get closer, you can now see the figure better but this does not make you fell any better... The figure is tall, probably around 5 1/2 feet, and wearing some sort of armor but it's difficult to tell what kind due to the heavy furs covering the fiure from head to toe.
Suddenly a shaft of sun breaks through the clouds and you can see the figure clearly: A tall creature covered in fur, powerfully built and armed with a short pike. there is also a nasty-looking sword hung at it's side. Whatever this is, it is NOT human.
 


Tyler freezes for a moment. Bugbear? he thinks to himself. Well if I'm already alone here I may be able to turn this to our advantage.

He keeps walking like he was only he's keeping an eye on the figure. If it notices him he will call out to it. "Hail the Fort!"
