After ascertaining that all appears well in Havenwood, a sly smirk crosses Sepoto's features. Hoping that the pair following him will take the bait, he leaves the village behind, and begins to make his way through the jungle foliage back to his companions, moving briskly, but not so quickly as to lose his 'tail'.
"Be so kind as to follow; follow Sepoto for we have questions for you Children-Friends..."
Once he is within a half mile of his companion's campsite, Sepoto bolts into the deepest underbrush he can find. The
chakit then heads eastward, away from the camp, and in a blur of orange fur and receding vines disappears from view. Once in his
ghost step, the shifter circles back and makes for the campsite, remaining invisible as long as he believes it necessary to lose his pursuers. Upon arriving at the campsite, he smiles at Kaelan and Charles, points in the direction of Havenwood, and utters the following with a self-satisfied grin of wide yellowing teeth:
"Friend-Kaelan, Friend-Charles, it seems Sepoto has acquired a 'pair of burrs' upon his fur while returning from the village. They are near, but likely quite confused as to where we have gone. Would you care to hunt them back along the trail? I am sure they would have many answers to our questions were we to ask nicely."
[SBLOCK] Pebele, Sepoto's intention is to not let on to the fact that he knows he is being followed when he leaves the village. Once the bait has been set, he intends to let his new friends trail him as close as possible to the camp without it being revealed, then head off to the east to throw his pursuers, returning quickly to the camp to get the other scouts. He then will lead the three of them back in order to ambush the Children's minions through stealth, in hopes of subduing them to answer questions. Skill checks, if needed:
