Message: <blockquote data-quote="DEFCON 1" data-source="post: 2035207" data-attributes="member: 7006">The group of three men gallop north as fast as they can get their horses to go.  Checking the maps along the way, Luthal can tell they are making good time.  Over the course of several hours they pass a couple travellers heading south along the road, but they do not stop to speak with them.It is approaching midafternoon when Kolarred notices that the wounds that his mount still has (the horse is currently down 5 HP from max), is beginning to slow the beast down.  Pushing ahead as much as they did has not done the mount much good, and it is noticably straining to keep up with Luthal's and Zook's horses.  Another hour of forced march and the horse will be completely exhausted.Looking at the maps, Luthal determines that if they were to continue to push ahead, they might reach the old tower ruins by nightfall.  If they stop to rest then they wouldn't reach the ruins until well into the evening.  Of course in either case... they may be in darkness when they arrive, and thus the possibility of missing the path off the road is great either way.  The maps do indicate another House Orien waystation probably within 2 hours journey from where they are, so if they were to let Kolarred's horse rest for a bit, they'd be able to make the waystation with no problems.**********OOC:  Tor L'Tha... you don't need to make Search, Listen, & Spot checks unless you specifically state what you are trying to Search, Listen and Spot for.  It goes without saying that I'm treating all of you as "Taking 20" on your Spots and Listens as you travel for any random things that might occur.  It's only if you have something specific you want to pay attention for that you can attach a roll to it, like "I want to Listen for more wolf howls for the first hour we travel from leaving camp."  This tells me that you not only are taking standard care to pay attention to your surrounds, but that you are also making specific concentration on listening for wolf howls.  Hope this helps.</blockquote>
