With nothing much to do while waiting for Templeton's return, Aridha settled for tossing pebbles at Rana's frog, hoping to get it to snatch them out of midair with its tongue.
The crafty thing didn’t seem to even see them though, golden eyes contemplative, haunches utterly zen… Until its tongue shot out for Aridha’s foot!

More frogs! Roaring dragonborns!
“Because this will in no way alert the bandits inside or get us all killed,” grumbled Rana.
Actually, that was an idea.
“Come, child,” the old witch whisper-pointed with some excitement, “let’s use the hubbub to quietly make our way through the cattails there to the right, across the wet, and up that crumbling slope of masonry.”
Into the keep while those within looked to the noise outside their gate!
Across their wake her frog hopped, facing back, engaging any frogs that wanted to follow in a staring contest.
He was... *very* good at staring.
OOC: Going for that long, shallow slope of masonry to the right on the original picture of the moathouse (
post #430)? It looks like it might even be possible to hop from the cattails to the blocks without getting our feet wet? The plan is to get up to the roofs/battlements and possibly get the drop on anything coming into the courtyard moathouse
