Q'Barra: Facing Truth

"At ease, Darrick. I just wanted to see you all off, I'm not on official business today, son." Goludov saluted Darrick and grinned broadly.

"It's a good day for travel. I envy you all, in a way."

Doing her best to stifle a yawn (and failing miserably), Catherine kneels down to perform her morning prayers as the first rays of dawn break the horizon. Finishing her prayers, Catherine dons her heavy azure dragonscale armor, and gathers the rest of her equipment before heading down to the cafeteria for a quick meal of bread and fruit, before meeting up with the others outside.

This is it! I'm so excited, but I've got to try and be calm. After all I don't want to embarass myself.

Trebuchet clomps up to the others and salutes the Headmaster.

"I am ready,"
He announces...a bit redundantly, "We will return shortly with more information, as ordered."
 

Charles gives a long yawn, scratches some parts of his body, and hops up out of bed. He washes himself, packs his travel gear, and readies his armor and weapons.

Here goes nothing.

He makes his way to the meeting point.
 

Sepoto awakens with a great yawn that turns into a contorting stretch of his entire body. He watches the dawn rise over the scattered buildings of Newthrone, while quietly eating a raw plantain. He then begins his descent of the banyan. When he reaches the bottom, he eyes the small patch of earth at its base that still looks somewhat more turned than the nearby ground.


"Thank you, Master Othos, for all you have taught me. I hope to make you proud."


His chest tightens briefly, and he feels something more must be said as his eyes begin to water, but nothing comes out. He bows once, perfunctorily, in the way of the Monks of the Closed Fist, and then turns away.

The chakit shifter bounds away in the direction of the stables. When he arrives, he smiles and offers greetings to his companions and Headmaster Goludov.

"Sepoto is ready."
 

Once everyone had arrived, Goludov stepped away from the group and offered them all a salute. "I wish you all safe travels. I look forward to hearing your reports."

With that, he turned away from the group and hurried off towards the administration building.

A stablehand brought Steadfast around. "Steadfast is ready, Master Darrick." The young man bowed and left the horse in Darrick's care.

With that, the group was free to decide how to best proceed to Havenwood.
 

Charles thinks for a moment.

Stealth won't be necessary in my opinion, not until we near the destination. However, the jungle is dangerous out there so keeping our guard up is a most


(I think Charles should be as close to the front as possible, his tactic is to burn up AoEs of the opponent)

"I say better safe than sorry. The three of us", nodding towards Sepoto and Charles, "are pretty stealthy. If there is anybody or anything watching us, they may be more convinced to attack a group of 3 instead of attacking at night when we are most vulnurable. I say we have Charles on point with Sepoto and myself on the flanks. Catherine can stay a little behind Charles, then Treb, and Darrick in the rear."

[sblock=ooc]Do we know the state of the trail? Single file or double file, what counts as difficult terrain, cover for one square into the jungle, etc?[/sblock]

"Indeed," Darrick replies, "That sounds to be an excellent plan. Steadfast and I may be many thing, but subtle, alas, we are not. We're sure to attract attention, and it will be difficult not to hear our approach."

[sblock=ooc]Darrick, by the way....[/sblock]
 

[sblock]ooc: I'll have the post for the group heading out up tomorrow morning. also, the whole way will be road/trail, the first day's travel will be double file and the rest single file.[/sblock]
