Once the plan is settled, the group spends the rest of the day making their way back through the jungle the way they came. Since they encountered no resistance, they made it back to the trail by the end of the day.
They made camp, and once again spent a peaceful night beneath the stars. Those who took watch were extra vigilant, yet they still did not find anything amiss during their shifts.
The next morning the group continued on the path towards Havenwood. The 'scouts' resumed their posts, scouting ahead and making sure the group was not going to be surprised.
As evening began to fall, the group paused. They estimated they were about two hours from Havenwood, and this would be their last opportunity to define their plans for returning to the settlement.
They had seen no evidence of other druids nor of the hunters who had sided with the druids. They had paid extra attention watching for any birds following them, but had seen nothing.
(Was Sepoto going to go in to Havenwood alone? Or were all three 'scouts' going to go? Or am I completely mistaken and everyone is returning together? Thank you all for putting up with my scatter-brain this week. I really appreciate your patience. )
