Hrandeth agreed with Rhas, “Yes, let us find my spices. Otherwise my business is ruined. They should be here somewhere.”
The chests in the two private bedrooms in the barracks proved to be unlocked and untrapped. Inside were the smelly personal belongings of the gnolls that used the rooms. There was nothing of real value in either of them.
Afterward, Damaris investigated the final structure and soon realized that stench was horrendous. It was an outhouse that was swarming with flies. The only furnishing was a wooden board with two circular openings that served as a seat.
There was no sign of the gnome’s spices.
[sblock=Combat Information]
Tactical Map:
1. Dark colored vegetation is difficult terrain if more than 50% of Square for medium creatures or smaller & provides 20%(roll 1d100: 1-20 misses) concealment being bushes from ranged attacks, 50% concealment for small creatures or prone medium ones.
2. Medium or Large bodies provide difficult terrain for medium creatures or smaller. Large Bodies can provide soft cover bonuses like low wall

After not finding the spices, Umthirn pauses to think for a bit, and turns to Hradeth "Can you give us a summary of how you were captured? There might be a clue in there about what happened to your spices there."

Ru sighs. "And then gnoll clothes make everything smell worse," he says with clear disappointment at the contents of the trunks. The southerner makes a quick exit back to the fresh air.
He perks up as Umthirn poses his question.
"If they took the spices by wagon, we might be able to see a trail, too," Ru suggests as they await a reply. "Either way, it looks like the spices aren't here. We should start loading up what we are taking. Whether we can find a trail or not, I'm not keen on camping here."
The southerner puts his words to action, and as Umthirn questions Hrandeth, begins hitching horses to one of the wagons to prepare loading it.

Rhas nods. "If the spices aren't here, we'd best have a look 'round to see where the tracks've gone. I like the idea of bein' paid for services rendered." He begins looking for wagon tracks out of the camp.

Damaris covers her mouth and nose and steps back into the middle of the camp. "Nope, no spices there. I really don't see where else could they be. I guess we should put everything we are taking into the wagons and move out. We shouldn't leave anything if there are any other gnolls left scouting the area"
Damaris gives one last try to look around the camp for any signs of the spices, but if she doesn't find anything, she will help Ru set up the horses and the wagons to leave.

Hrandeth explained in answer to Umthirn, "It was about a week ago, mayhap? Not sure how many days, maybe more. They set up my wagon on the Trade Road and slaughtered my guards. I hid in the wagon and they knocked me out instead of killing me."
"My wagon is in the barn there, so I am sure my spices are around here somewhere. The gnoll asked about them yesterday and he would only have done that if he was still looking to try selling them. You all have hardly spent much time looking for them yet."
While Ru and Damaris work on hitching the horses to a wagon, Rhas looked around outside the fort and found no recent wagon ruts to indicate the wagons left in the last few days.

Rhas shrugs. "Well ... bloody hells. No sense in keeping the place pretty-looking, then. Keep a watch while I go through everything, thorough-like." The dwarf heads back to the building on the left side of the camp and begins tossing beds and tearing up the floor with his axe, looking for a compartment big enough to hold a box of spices.

[sblock=ooc]Wasn't my intention to meta-game at all. I thought we had searched all the buildings, though it seems we didn't do it properly? It was always my intention to have searched things thoroughly before leaving.[/sblock]
Ru raises his eyebrow as they discover the wagons haven't moved.
"Odd, isn't it, to just sit on spoils like this for several days if they were only worth something to you sold?" he ponders out loud, then shrugs. "If there's no sign they took it anywhere, then I suppose it has to be here somewhere."
As Rhas begins tearing apart the barracks, Ru moves toward the building with the cells.
"I'll dig around again in the cells," he offers. "That's the only place that had any traps, so it seems the most secure place they might have kept loot."
[sblock=ooc]As with Rhas, taking 20 on the search of both cells and the two rooms behind them. Threw in a roll in case we can't do that:

Umthirn smiled and tried to reason with the gnome "Well, we just wanted to make sure there were not any other nasty gnolls hidden in plain sight. If we started really searching hard, we would loose track of our surroundings, and might get ambushed. By doing a quick walk through, we removed that option, so we can really start looking and finding them."
With the back of the barn unchecked, Umthirn takes a good look around the wagons and the horses, before returning to the back of the barn and starting his search from there.
[sblock=OOC]
I will admint, it was a little confusing when we coudn't find them. Hence why I asked what happened.
For all we know, there are other gnolls camps out there that would have kept the spices, while the commander stayed here to find out more information.
Umthirn will take the barn while the other two toss the barracks. Take 10 on the wagons, then take 20 in the barn.
