[Pathfinder] Hewligan's Rise of the Runelords: The Hook Mountain Massacre

[Fenris]

Jovik shows up with his horse at precisely an hour. He looks at the rangers ready to leave and gives a nod in deference to them fulfilling their duty. he looks to his friends and flashes them a quick smile, a brief window to the carefree boy they knew back in Sandpoint. His smile fades though and his face sets as if in stone, hard and emotionless. It stays that way on the ride up, not talking, not interacting with the group.

Kael is as prepared as he can be for what's about to come. The eldritch power that flows through his veins is ready to answer his call. Items of power are secreted about his person, ready for a quick hand in dire need. His companion, Mal, ever-present by the varisian's side, wary of any potential threats, expected or not.

Warm to his companions, Kael is dutifully civil to the rangers. While he doesn't approve of some of their thoughts, motives, or actions, the young sorcerer understands where those motives come from and expects the rangers to work through them.

His thoughts are more full of concern for his friends, Jovik and Jovak, as they've more of a conflict in the coming events than himself and Danth. Between their closer friendship to one and other, thus a shared interest in rescuing Jovik's unrequited love. That said, Kael trusts in them to do what needs to be done, right or wrong.

OOC: Not unrequited. on the contrary, hot and steamy Jovik gave up carousing for this woman!

A trickle of people meet the adventurers on their way towards the Grauls and the fort. Farmers mainly, heading into town for safety. They have had to do this many times before - normally during the hard winter when hunger drives the Grauls to crazier raids on homesteads. They look disconsolate, but such is life in these parts.

The journey itself passes quickly and without incident. Before long the party stand on the road at the edge of the wood near the Graul homestead. It lies less than half a mile into the forest from here.

OOC: How do you wish to approach?

 

[frostrune]

OOC: Seems like we ought to leave the horses nearby and head the rest of the way on foot. Jovik can scout ahead. The rangers (Vale and Jakardos/Kibb) can spread out to the flanks with their bows. The rest of us and Kaven can move together following Jovik at a reasonable distance.

Cool by everyone?

 

[Rhun]

OOC: Danth is good with that plan.

OOC: Yeah, sounds good. With the added caveat that with the killings and time, Jovik will be worried about traps and will keep an extra eye out for them, otherwise yeap, on board.

OOC: Hewligan, did we decide just how many spell slots Danth would be down to restore everyone? Was it 2 4th level slots and 2 2nd level slots for Restorations and Lesser Restorations?

Yes. You guys should be able to sleep between the Grauls and the Fort, though. As long as nothing else happens.
