The Comission
The party sets forth in the dark to the first farmstead........riding in the darkness it seems to take forever before the homestead comes within sight. As they approach several small fires can be seen in the yard.

For Angelo
[sblock]angelo gets the mental impression of a yawn and a furry head pokes it way up from it's nest in his pouch. Within a few minutes angelo is treated with an image of 5 or 7 men dressed in what appears to be heavy leather and carrying spear and short swords. Several others groups, five to a group, are rolled up in blankets around two smaller fires. A picket line of horses, no livestock, runs in front of the burned out barn well in sight of those huddled around the main fire.[/sblock]

Angelo
Speaking quietly to the others, Angelo notes, "There are at least 5 and likely 10 men on guard in armor with spear and short sword. They seem to be grouped in bands of 5 sleeping around the fires. Its hard to say just how many groups, but I'd say several. There horses are picketed."

"That is more than just any band of brigands you are describing, Angelo. Your normal group of ruffians would perhaps number fifteen to twenty at the most, and not show such a martial mien. There is more afoot here than just banditry. I would hazard that some one is rebelling against the nobility, and I doubt the local gentry are opposing the rebellion. While I would not fear to hazard myself against a smaller group, discretion may be the better part of valor in this instance. We need to warn the local militia and seek support perhaps from the Church armies. Would that we could do something to strand yon miscreants there until such time as sufficient others are here to handle such a large force? If only our friend the bear from last night was still with us to unsettle their horses."

"I for one look forward to testing myself against such as these. Perhaps with such numbers they will prove challenging enough to offer opportunities to find some of our weaknesses and discover how to improve ourselves! I say we move forward."

Lucien's face face bears a grin more in keeping with that of a wolf than a brother of the Church. "Very well, gentlemen, it looks like we are agreed that Justice wishes to pay a visit upon the unrighteous tonight. Perhaps splitting apart slightly will aid us in our quest, as it will appear to our foes that we are a larger number. Tetsu, I have noticed that you are light of foot. Might you be able to sneak amongst their steeds, loosen the pickets and drive them from the area? I'm sure that will draw some of their numbers off to try and recover them. At that point, Angelo and muself could descend upon the main encampment. As Angelo seems to enjoy some form of communicative bond with his animal friends, one might accompany you Tetsu, to let us know when you are ready. Does this sound acceptable to all of you?"
