Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tellerian Hawke" data-source="post: 6694949" data-attributes="member: 6790669">BillanverthorneBillanverthorne: Nodding to Khaled: "Good idea. I don't plan to sleep at all; plenty of time for sleep once we're inside the gates." Bill points to his eyes, "These things serve me very well in the dark. Tonight they will serve you and your caravan as well. I'd advise you to double the watch around the tents and wagons. I'm going to scout the perimeter of this whole area. That will only take me a few minutes, I don't intend to waste time. One quick sweep is all I need."[Bill unslings his bow, along with a single arrow, which he nocks gently, no pressure on the bowstring. He will walk the outer parameter of the entire gathering, facing outward into the darkness, avoiding looking toward the campfires; this is so that the other guards will recognize him as a guard, since he is making no attempt to hide, walking slowly, and facing out, away from the camp, i.e., acting like a guard. If he passes within gentle speaking distance of any other guards of other caravans, he will identify himself, and tell them to be extra cautious, saying he has a bad feeling about tonight. He does NOT stop to talk further. After taking note of possible points of attack, and best positions to defend from, especially noting where the high ground and low ground of the surrounding terrain are, he returns to the caravan. Once back in Khaled's camp, Bill will try to remain inconspicuous, scanning the darkness intently, while attempting to act like a human, i.e., acting as if he can't see very far into the darkness, like all the other guards. He doesn't want to let on to a would-be ambusher that he can see them coming.]</blockquote>
