Constables of the 14th Ward Part 2

A note in his pocket, Bocephus waves merrily to the Constables as he sets off for the city on the back of a wagon loaded with sheepskins bound for the 14th ward gate. Eventually, they will go to the port and take a trip across the lake to the tanneries. You hope that Bocephus doesn't fall asleep and end up in the 16th.

Well fed and rested the Constables are set for a journey to the mill.

OOC: How about a marching order and a spot and listen check for all?

SoulFetter

As SoulFetter sets out for the mill with the rest of the team, he carefully attunes his senses to the environment around him. His eyes are distracted for a moment as he follows Bocephus' progress back to the city, but he keeps his ears open and his bow ready.

Alarion

Alarion readies his shield and makes ready to leave as well. He looks more serious than is his wont before combat.
[sblock=OOC]
Spot 3, Listen 20

Suggested marching order:

Alarion Jonas
Raul Darius
Moru Thea
Brae Soulfetter

My thinking is that it will be good to have our ranger up front, but Darius will be close at hand to step up in case of trouble. Let me know what you all think. [/sblock]
 

Unburdened by heavy weapons or armor, Thea's final preparations took only a few moments (and a few terse words in Sylvanoptera) to complete. She paused as they headed out- just long enough to tuck her tightly-braided hair up under a soft, broad-brimmed hat and to put on her dark-lensed spectacles. Once they were under way, she kept her attention on the world around them- her senses were not the keenest, but her focus was nearly total.

OOC: [sblock] Listen 1d20+4= 13; Spot 1d20+4= 15; rolls http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1723574/ ; Once they are ready to go she will cast Endure Elements on herself (lasting 24 hours), and once they are actually on the road, she will cast Mage Armor on herself (lasting 5 hours).

Ederaul Mamier

Raul falls into line and moves off with his fellow Constables. Raul holds his crossbow in his hands in a relaxed way but ready for action. His eyes are aware of his surroundings as he listens to the others discuss the directions.

[sblock=OOC]
2nd row or back row, switching positions with Brae, are both fine. Brae?

Spot 24; Listen 13
Spot/Listen Checks (1d20+8=24, 1d20+5=13)

OOC: Looks like they didn't check in, Dude.... (I guess Darius was busy getting blown away by Ike!)

When you cross the bridge, you have exited Pleasant Ford. Now on the south side of the river, you follow the river in a generally eastward direction. After traveling for about an hour, the brush and trees begin to thicken, and the river broadens some. Soon, the river splits, the main channel proceeding generally east, but the smaller branch you are obliged to follow (unless you want to swim) bends more to the southeast. Shortly after this, the ground becomes noticeably more moist, and your boots begin to sink into it a bit more deeply, making walking more difficult and providing a chorus of "sucking sounds" as you progress. There is a good deal more moss high in the trees here, and a greater number of annoying insects.
