Smashed World, part I

[Zack2216]

"Well, if it is just a caravan, I don't see why we should... Wait, what about the cloud behind us? Did anyone scout back there?"

 

[Dalamar]

DM clarification: The only cloud you can see behind yourselves is the one that you rised yourself. I'm sorry if I made it seem like there's one behind you too.

 

[Jarval]

Lorcan remounts Ceinwen, and offers Durban a hand up.

"I'd guess it's a merchant caravan, so there seems little to worry about."

 

[Zack2216]

hmm, I probably should have asked about it. I just got carried away. Darn imagination...

 

[Zhure]

Durban

Durban remounts and thanks both Lorcan and Ceinwen (though Durban seems as if he feels foolish talking to a mount).

"Do you think we should avoid the merchants?"

 

[kaboom]

Lisa says "Why should we even try? We've got no reason to suspect them." Her smile fades as she continues with "Unless you're not telling us something suspicious that you saw."

 

[Luddite]

Let us go and talk to them. They may have goods or information of value.

Durban

"I think it is merely I have a suspicious nature, nothing else. If they'd looked like something other than a merchant caravan I'd be raising a hue and cry that we hide." Durban smiles at Lisa.

 

[Dalamar]

As the party discusses what to do, the caravan comes to sight. Now that you look at it, you can make out 5 wagons, each sporting a cage, and and a cart carrying various goods. One of the horse riders sees you and says something to the others, and the caravan stops.
After a while, the one that spotted you and a few other riders start riding your way. If you wanted, you could propably still outrun them as your horses had the chance to rest.

Haplo looks towards the oncoming riders to 'size them up.'
are they waving weapons?
