Of Sound Mind II

I say we follow the more recent tracks--those left by the small human or halfling. I agree with Gholog, though. If we wish to keep this information from the guard, we should get moving. The only problem is that following these tracks will be a slow and arduous process. Any suggestions on how to buy us some time?

 

[Jarval]

Just to be clear, there are two sets of tracks: The set you were follow to start, which are those of a group of goblins, and are about four or five days old. The other set of tracks are goblin, along with the set of human or halfling tracks, which are three days old.

I'll be going away for a couple of days starting Monday. I should be back Wednesday or Thursday.

 

[Acmite]

[COLOR=sky blue] Yep, that's what I thought. My vote is to follow the fresher tracks with the smaller humanoids. [/COLOR]

Gholog

Gholog looks on, interested in those who can track, but spending most of his attention on those who might be following them.

"Do you want me to try and engage them in conversation? I'm not sure I'll be able to find the group again later though."

"Do you want me to try and engage them in conversation? I'm not sure I'll be able to find the group again later though."

Seraphina speaks up. "Gholog, if you can lead me to them, I could distract the group following us. That will give everyone else time to follow the tracks."

She pauses. "As for finding the group again, I think they will do well without us... later tonight, there is a town meeting, and I was considering either going, or looking around town for anything... unusual."

 

[Zhure]

"Very well, Seraphina and I will go distract those who pursue us. If there's a problem, raise a ruckus and we will hope to hear you. Otherwise, we'll rendezvous at the town meeting tonight."

 

[Acmite]

If everyone is agreed, then. Let's proceed. Those of you who can hide their trails or remain quiet--I suggest you do so. Normally I'd do it for you, but I'll be busy following the trail....

 

[Jarval]

Gholog and Seraphina:

You head over to the west, along an old game trail. You come out of the edge of the woods, and can see the search party making it's way slowly along towards you. As you get a little closer, one of the guards spots you and attracts Captain Haldik's attention.

"Have you found anything yet?" The Captain calls over to you.


The tracking party:

Adren picks up the trail again, which leads back to the river bank. The trail continues along towards the mountain, crossing the river. The goblin tracks continue along towards the mountain, along with yet another set of tracks. The new set seem to be human or elven, and it looks as though they were trying to cover their tracks as they went.

Gholog

Gholog waves at the captain and grins big.

"Nothin' yet," he calls out, "you?"

 

[Jarval]

"As yet, not a sign." The Captain says as he walks over to you. "Where are your companions?"
