The Bold Adventures of Poins--In the Woods!

"Nay, wolves don't climb trees. And I won't be leaving mine down here. I can lead the pursuit off in a different direction."

Loas gives a whistle. "Don't worry, Hob. We've thought of that. We know how fond you hobs are of the things." A pair of wood goblins lower themselves from the trees on large spiders, and produce a sling to carry the wolf in. With that done, he glances at the druid. "And don't bother calling me 'lord', or nothing like that. That's for them hill and mountain sort--always calling themselves 'Lord This', and 'Baron That', and 'King Something-or-the-Other'." He spits. "Quite sickening. Just call me 'Loas', and I'm happy."
 

Hemaor looks at the sling carefully to make sure that it is of good enough make to hold the wolf. If satisfied, he helps the goblins get the wolf into the harness and then follows up the tree after it is safely up.

"I like your folk more and more each minute, Loas," Liev whispers, looking for signs of pursuit as the rest of the party climbs into the tree.

Devon

Devon gets into the tree and shakes Loas' hand. It's always a pleasure to thwart invaders into the forest. I swear I'm part pixie or something. He laughs and checks on Graf and the others.
We must get back to Nightshades' Home. My mentor is passing from this realm and I do not want him to go alone.
 

Loas nods. He gestures to a carefully made ladder on this particular tree branch. "Follow me. You're travelling through the lands of Terra's Stepchildren."

Liev can't make much out, what with all the leaves, and such.

Liev, realizing he's a horrible lookout, makes for the ladder instead.

"Anything that gets me away from a bloody altar works for me."
 

Climbing the ladder, you find yourself on a walkway. Numerous tents have set up on the trees, each of them joined by a series of walkways and planks. Enormous bats and large spiders can be seen around, while Wood Goblins go about their daily business.

While Liev's glinting eyes probably give away his vigor to explore the village in the trees, he looks to Loas for some indication of his next move before doing anything more than surveying the new world he's entered.
