[Koboldquest] Delivering the box

Uncharacteristcally, Miki will offer to take a watch this time. Second watch will do. Assuming nothing untoward appears, he will pass the time thinking evil thoughts of 'crying wolf' and spoiling everyone's sleep. Remembering the size of the dweibolds, however, he will wisely refrain from giving in to such urges.
 

Lok-Nar has first watch, and Taden decides to take second. Miki, Nah'l, Zort complete the rest of the watch. The dolmen is peaceful with the only interruption being some curious birds. Target darts in and out of the Dolmen, returning with leaves all over his body.

Serk recovers after the rest; Tyamat would not let one of her priests die so easily. When she comes to, she spends some time casting spells on herself to recuperate.
"Thank you my hatchmates," she says. She goes over to Nah'l and casts a spell on him, healing some of the damage the Ogre did. The barbarian feels a bit better.

She digs out the map, looking as confused as ever. The long shadows of trees fall on the world outside as dusk approaches and the harsh sunlight has disappeared.

"Should we move ahead now?" she asks. "I think I'll... stay in the middle for now."

The others recover 1 hp from the rest.

Nah'l: 13/23, Zort: 7/12, Miki: 14/18, Taden: 6/13, Lok-Nar: 18/18, Kadan: 9/11

"We should rest another day. This is a secure spot. Most of us are still injured. Some, I can tell, are closer to death than they'd like to be. And if we came across more of the Large Fleshy Ones, I'd prefer not to have anymore of us flattened. We were foolish before for not waiting, we will not be again."

Kadan settles down on a rock, obviously not willing to move.

"We stay here until we are all healed."

The last comment is said as a fact, not as an opinion.
 

Nah'l smiles at Kadan, obviously the little one has a good idea. Right head pipes in, "a day of rest would definately be nice," left head follows up, "ogre sure did land a hefty blow."
 


Serk chimes in "Yes, perhaps another day of rest will be good. The Queen would rather we get there than being slightly late, I'm sure," she says.

The consensus appears to be to stay in the dolmen another day. Drar hangs from the ceiling, avoiding the sunlight.

Any other actions for the day?
 

*Lok-Nar grumbles as being forced to wait, and then finally ventures a suggestion.*

"How about I go hunt something? Get some more fresh meat?"

*If so, then Lok-Nar will go out to try to find something fairly close, and reasonably slow. He will then try to make it dead.*
 

Miki agonizes over a difficult decision for many long minutes, almost visibly torn on the course to take.. in the end he makes up his mind and approaches Serk.

"Here's your share of the coins from the giants that flattened you," says Miki, offering Serk a fistful of coins. "I was looking after it while you... slept."

Later, Miki sighs to himself. Still it was for the best... tho the others may not have noticed now, wagging tongues could have caused great difficulties down the road if I hadn't coughed it up. Still, I wonder if I should have kept just a little of it ...
