After somehow conveying that to us, U'Tempei suggests, "Well, let's approach by road until we get near the clearing. Then we can see if circling around makes any sense." She runs a finger along her jawline to her temple.

"Castles are made for defense," Saarthax says worriedly. "Does anyone know of secret backdoors or ruined walls that we may use to enter so that we stand a chance against these orcs?"

The castle has been abandoned for over half a century, since it was sacked. Unless the orcs have been there several months intensively rebuilding - I’m which case someone would have heard something - it won’t be in good repair. Finding damaged opening will be a matter of scouting.

"So, ye wan' me to scout the castle a bit, mayhap sew a li'l discord if the opportunity presents itself?" Orin grunts as he takes in the conversation. "I'm pretty good with voices, so I mi't be able to ruffle some feathers."

"Seems like a smart move," Saarthax nods to Orin. "A distraction might give us a better chance of entering the castle without too much bloodshed."

"We will know better once we sight the castle whether these plans will work," U'Tempei says. "If we are ambushed, we must ensure none of the orcs escape or we will have no chance for surprise at the castle."

You travel along the old road for a while. About an hour's walk out of town you find a barely discernible branch in the road. Heavily overgrown you can barely see the stones. You follow this for a while to get a feel for it's direction, then break off to avoid running into any orcs.
About an hour into the forest, you come across an abandoned camp site. There is evidence of some large bipeds that have camped here but the camp has been abandoned for at least a day.

Eowyn finds the campsite well cleared when the campers left. The only thing of note is that there are a few small footprints, like those of children.
Finding nothing you continue to parallel the old road. Not to much later you come across the ruins of a simple hovel, like the ones the charcoal burners of Gravesford live in while tending their mounds. It's clearly not been used in decades but it suggests a larger settlement nearby - at least in the past.

Eowyn studied the children’s footprints closely, curious. Then they continued on the path, finding the small hovel. She poked silently around inside. It was old, abandoned, the woad pressing in on it.

Eowyn lead the ratcatchers through the forest, closer to the old castle. Focused on choosing a route she almost missed the change in the forrest - its too quiet, and smells wrong...
Suddenly a huge patch of forest rears up in front of you. Not a patch of forest - some kind of plant.

"What's that?!" roars Saarthax as the green mount of plants rears up ahead. He raises his longsword and shield, preparing for battle.

U'Tempei immediate loads her crossbow and fires at the creature. (Twice, sharpshooter) She probably misses both times.
Crossbow sharpshooter: 2#1d20+3 12 8 2#1d6+13 17 17
She stays at the rear of the party where I'm guessing she was in the marching order.

Orin flicks his eyes up and draws his bow at the massive plant creature, sending an arrow into the writhing vegatation.

Saarthax rushes forward to defend his half fling ally as U'Tempei and Orin send projectiles that skitter through the mass of plant without hitting anything.

I wasn't aware of a short rest. U'Tempei would have spent a hit die.

Eowyn yipped in surprise as the forest floor rose up in front of her. She scampered behind Saarthax as he stepped in front of her. She dug into the pouch at her belt and pulled out three stones, imbuing them with magic and loading one into her sling, which she fired at the creature.
